Skate Trick Tips
Last week on NKA Project Carlos Lastra gave you some crucial tips on how to darkslide. But if you really want to impress the homies at the skatepark, watch Carlos break-down how to nail handstand finger flips. Make sure you already know how to do a handstand on flat ground, otherwise you're playing yourself if you give this trick a shot.
This week the NKA Project crew heads out to Westchester Skate Plaza to meet up with with Elephant Skateboards am Carlos Lastra for a sick darkslide trick tip. Carlos breaks down this Rodney Mullen-pioneered classic step by step, offering some helpful tips that, with a little luck and a lot of hard work, will have you grinding the grip in no time.
The late flip is one of the staples of any technical street skater. Carlos Lastra breaks down its nuances on this new episode of NKA Project for you. A few things to keep in mind: the later you wait the easier the flip is, make sure your back foot is ready after you tweak the ollie, kick with your ankle and not your leg, and banks are easiest to learn them because you have more time. Now get out there and nail late flips yourself!
Thank you Alan Gelfand and Rodney Mullen!
Rent-a-cops are just like frightened and agitated animals and should be treated accordingly.
In this episode of the Amazing Richie Jackson Skateboarding Show, Richie takes on the enemy of street skaters everywhere, the security guard. Countless skate tricks haven't taken place because some security guard said something along the lines of, "Get outta here. You're on private property. I'm gonna call the cops. Do you have any donuts?" Jackson's approach to this crisis involves less violence and more cunning.
In Skateboard Eduation Lesson School, William Spencer shows the proper way to do a frontside flip. It's a big departure from Spencer's usual mix of creative and acrobatic tricks, but is just what serious skateboarding needs.
It's time to envision a world without kooks or cool guys, where every professional skateboarder is considered equal. Richie Jackson knows how to make that dream a reality. With an innovative new approach to the hardflip, Jackson hopes to bring together two of skateboarding's most diverse factions. And he also has a handy tip that makes learning switch hardflips a snap.
In this episode, skateboarder Richie Jackson comes clean about where he finds inspiration for his tricks. And it might be summer, but Skateboarding Education Lesson School is back in session featuring a backside wallride. This episode brought to you by Miguel Sanbarno.
Take Richie's challenge and let him know which other skate tricks are inspired by specific Rock stars in the comments below. Tune in for the next episode of The Amazing Richie Jackson Skateboard Show Monday June 17.
