i want to do a nollie fflip so bad and i think i could but i want some tips. i tried some of those like front roll front flip things basically on flat ground and they were fun and gave me the confidence that i could try it. i think it should be relatively soft this weekend so i think theres a chance i try it.

also want to get a 1p1 on the flat tube if its still there, any tips on that? and maybe ill just throw 2 on bc i need to do that sooner rather than later and i can 1 on fine. really just need do something cool so i stop pissing myself off by being bad.

def try to toss some 2s onto a flat tube, that's low risk stuff and if you do 1s on you're mostly there. just remember the basics, push those shins against those tongues, flex your core and stay upright

opinions vary but i don't think you should think of it like a 1 on + 90, i think that might make you slip backward. think of it as a 270. pop, get your tips up, spin, look for the landing (on the rail)

oh and the best rail trick advice i ever got: LIFT YOUR KNEES!

Just commit to the flip and make sure you don't just throw your head between your legs. I literally try to hit the back of my head with the leg I'm not stomping off.

@BagOTricks has a good video on YouTube. We used it to teach my little sisters bf how to do them and he is a third year skier with maybe 40 days on snow.
