Definition: The Kickflip is similar to an Ollie, but you flick the board with your foot to make it spin underneath you while in the air. In a clean kickflip, the skater kicks the board with his or her front foot, the skateboard flips and spins over at least once, and the skateboarder lands on the board.

In skating, the Kickflip separates the men from the boys, arguably the most popular trick made ever. For all you that don't know, the Kick flip is when you kick your board to make it flip, kind of like this

  1. Get your feet in ollie position
  2. Pop your Tail just like you would if you were doing a ollie
  3. Slide your foot off the board to the left.(right side if you go goofy)
  4. Think of it as kicking the side of your board to make it flip.
