How to Heelflip
The heelflip (aka heel), is an aerial skateboarding trick where the skateboarder kicks out in front of him/her flipping board 360 degrees along the board's long axis.
A heelflip is executed similarly to the ollie, and like the Ollie has become a defining trick of "New School" skateboarding.
A heelflip is the opposite of a kickflip, the board spins toe-side (towards the toes). For a regular skater (left foot in front) the board spins clockwise from the perspective of one behind the skater. Again, there is a kick as part of the ollie but unlike the kickflip it is directed forward and outwards away from the rider's toe side (diagonal), so that the last part of the foot to leave the board is the heel, hence the name.
1
Set your back foot on the back of the tail. Set your front foot so ¾ of it is on the board but so that your toes are hanging over a bit.
2
Crouch down and then spring up in an Ollie, just as you normally would.Before you get to your maximum Ollie height, kick your front foot up and out and try to spin the board using your heel, not toe, rolling your ankle.
3
Keep your front foot out so that the board can spin under you. Stay above the board. watch for the grip tape to come round. Remember to keep the board from getting caught with your feet.
4
Bring your front foot back after it's over ¾ of the rotation to catch the board.
5
Uncompress your legs and land the trick. Try to land ideally,(which is on the bolts). Doing this will provide a safer, smoother landing, and prevent your board from snapping. Remember to roll smoothly!
