practice. squat while swinging your arms backwords for momentum. as you begin the backflip swing your arms forward and up while you spring with your legs up and backwords. best to try this into a pool or a foam pit. this way you land on something soft if it does not workout. as you lift off the ground tuck in word (some put their chest between thier legs) and watch for the ground as you begin to land. that is the best i can explain it. try practicing into a pool or something soft so when you land it is soft. you don't want to land on your head.

You've got to remember to pull your knees up after you flip the board. Especially the one thats doing the flipping. Otherwise it's going to hit the board, or just go off to the side and to the ground. Jump, and when you do, lift up both legs and stay above the board while it flips, and then, ideally, it will finish it's rotation right under your feet and your feet will do what's called, "catch" the board.\nGood luck

# 1) Start with your back foot on the tail and your front foot right under the bolts. Your front foot should be slanted just a little.\n# 2) Bend your knees and pop your board.\n# 3) Flick your front foot off the tip of the nose making it flip.\n# 4) Suck up your legs for the catch. Try and keep your feet over the bolts.\n# 5) Land and absorb the shock and roll away.

First you need to learn how to do front-side 180's and kick-flips. After you master those than just do them all at once. Its easier if you learn front side varial too because all a front side kick-flip is a varial kick-flip and you doing a 180

First, you need an arm.  If you don't have any, your kinda screwed.  Then, you need muscles.  Your kinda screwed without them too.  Get a good grip.  Right when you start, kick your opponent in the nuts.  Works every time.

Pylometric Exrcises can help to greatly increase the power of your kick and the height of your jump.\n\nRicochets – \n1. Mark out 15 meters with cones.\n2. Keeping your feet together, start at one cone and do small fast jumps to the end.\n3. For this exercise the emphasis should be on speed and rate of leg movement rather than height.\n4. Each 15 meters is 1 set.\n\nBounding – \n1. Mark out 12 small cones or obstacles about 3 feet apart in a straight line.\n2. Start behind the first obstacle in a semi squat position.\n3. Jump as high and far as possible over each obstacle. It's a good idea to practice first to gauge how far apart you should set the markers. Again try to minimize ground contact time.\n4. Each jump is 1 repetition.\n\nLateral Jumps – \n1. Stand alongside a bench, box or cone approximately 30cm high. \n2. Keeping your feet hip distance apart jump sideways as high over the obstacle as possible. \n3. Immediately jump back to the start position minimizing ground contact time. This counts as one repetition.\n4. Make sure you discipline yourself to jump as high as possible. \n\nSide-Jump Sprint – \n1. Place a cone 14-19 meters in front of the starting point to act as the finish line.\n2. Stand on 1 one side of a bench or obstacle, facing the starting line, with feet together.\n3. Begin by jumping sideways back and forth over the bench for 2 repetitions.\n4. On landing on the last jump, explode forward into a sprint to the finish line. \n5. Anticipate the landing and be ready to sprint forward, emphasis should be on acceleration.\n6. This counts as 1 repetition.\n\nDepth Jumps – \n1. Stand on a box, bench, or sturdy chair approximately 30-40 cm high.\n2. Step off the bench and as soon as you land explode vertically as high as you can. This counts as 1 repetition.\n3. Try to minimize ground contact time.

push down on the tail of the skateboard with your backfoot (making the nose come up) while at the same time sliding your front foot from the center of the board towards the nose.  try landing your front foot on top of your hardware. while doing all that you should be going through a jumping motion.\n\nhttp://expn.go.com/tricks/Ollie.html#

I saw a thing on TransWorld Skateboarding Magazine, and Ryan Sheckler says how to set up with your front foot; it should be a few inches from the back bolts of the front truck, get a good amount of speed, smash the tail into the ground and do the highest ninja kick you can, let the board flip under you, catch w/ your feet or hand, keep it the catch (unless you are grabbing it, release it after catching it) and land.\n\nI don't know it sounds pretty retarded ;)

With a skateboard! :P\n\nActually, you'll need lots of practise and a good sense of balance. If you ahve any friends with a skateboard, you shoudl ask if you can borrow it, and get some help. It'll take awhile to get the hang of it. You'll fall and get mad, so be careful, but if you stick with it you'll be fine.\n\n\nAnyways, to start you have your one foot on the board (around the middle or so) then use the other leg to pull yourself forward. It's ahrd to explain. Wacth some videos and stuff and you shoudl be able to get the basics of it.
