Kickflips Down Stairs

Quote:
So you roll up to this big stair set, not knowing what to do, if you don't want to eat pavement, read this guide.
The first thing you want to do is ollie it first, warm up a little bit. After that, make sure you are landing kickflips consistently.
Now, what your going to do is roll up to the stair set-if it is a long stair set, you want to give it that extra push-and pop, directly before your front wheels leave the ground.
After you pop, you are going to do that kickflip, and flick it, but nice and (moderately) slow. If you flip it too fast, you might not catch it right, and you might even land primo, or worse. So the board is spinning in midair, and you are hovering above it, keeping your shoulders straight. You want to get your feet back on that board once you see that sweet, sweet grip, and catch it. Usually, your feet go to the bolts themselves, but try to get your feet near them anyway.

man u got that shit down. ok jsut a lil thing for some when you first try you aint gonna do it first try. and chances are first time u land on your board with both feet you'll shoot out. so once that happens try again et that feeling then be the man and ride away. i love flipping sets, and liek he said as soon as that grit comes around stomp that S.O.B.

ive found that you get a better flip if you put more of your foot onto the board then when you do them flat.
this makes it flip slower thus looking cooler and being earier to land

i think its easier to focus on doing a tiny kikflip and then get it good rather thanfocusing and the trick itself and focusing on making it over the gap

can you do a normal kickflip down small set or is it better to do the slower spin and popping harder down the smaller ones to?
