The pre-loading pop principle is what i found out myself learning to ollie over a street cone. It applies to almost every tricks that has a pop in it. I know a bit of martial arts and one thing my teacher told me is that most people focus more on the speed of the projectile rather than the WEIGHT. Power = Speed × Mass. That means we have to emphasize both for maximum power output. Imagine slapping yourself really fast with a feather, it wouldn't hurt. Now change that feather to something like a rolled-up napkin. It hurts like shit. Same speed, different mass. This means that if we put more weight into our popping foot, the board will hit the ground much harder and therefore produce more bouncing effect. I sometimes even put most of my weight on the popping foot and use the other foot to squeeze the board down so it wouldn't manual.
@@InternationalBassNation I barely weigh 115 lbs so no problems for me. Never broke a board in my damn life. Maybe I'm just too much of a pussy to jump down fat stuff.😂
Always loved the look of this trick. Thanks for the tips, really need to up my game and get those nollie halfcab heelflip solid before I get into this one. Thanks for never patronising the viewer and keeping the videos so loaded with info without it just being boring and over wordy. Love the channel man.
Guess I need to know how to Ollie consistently first. 😂 your videos are badass, keep up the good work. I hope over time I can get some more tricks under my belt!
Hey man, just watched your video. Super cool that you're not letting your age stop you from starting to learn to skate. I was honestly pretty surprised with how quickly you were doing good ollies, took me a long time. Plus that park looks amazing
ijustlike0010 hey thanks for watching. Much more to come! I’m hooked! No lie. I haven’t had that much fun in a long time, and on a good note, i didn’t die my first time out. Haha
Yury Yantsevich it’s so fun, so addicting. I can’t wait to make more videos. I skated today, didn’t film but I was so much more confident on the board. More videos to come foooooor sure!
@@garageoutlaw2089 yeah, it is addicting and fun. I have found sooo many new muscles doing ollie and shove it. I found that I lose consistency really fast, though, just few rainy days here in Stockholm, and today I start learning everything from scratch...
Ben,,, much appreciation I'm enjoying your lil tips ,,, I've got my tailslides n noseslides down a lot more landing than bailing so thank you ,,,cos I'm old like you, starting skating again in later life,,, but I'm having a ball of a time ,,, learning old tricks,,, Oh ye n the 5.0 on transition ,,,thank you Ben I'm inspired
the secret you mentioned for getting a good pop, I have found can apply to so many tricks. The scientific explaining of how the apposing forces helps catapult the board is perfect! @1:15
I have a trash nollie heel and have never done a nollie fs 180 heel; but I can do nollie inward heels... For me, it’s one of those “stand-alone” tricks that doesn’t really depend on the “building block” component tricks as much.
Those look so good. I can do them once and a while but watching this makes me want to learn them better. Haven't skated all week, will have to get out tomorrow to skate for sure.
It helps that I was on a weeny little 8" deck, however, I do find them to be one of the tricks that does not really suffer when I go up in board size. In fact they almost get radder, they just take a little more effort.
@@bendegros I skate 8.75s and make them work when I can get them. I've thought about going down to 8.5 or 8.62 but I tried it once and just wasn't comfortable on a smaller size(8.5 alien workshop). I've just gotten used to the extra width and length. I particularly missed the extra length in the middle when doing board slides and lip slides on transition. Think I'll work on Nollie inwards tomorrow, should be some good fun.
Your videos are brilliant! Been trying these here and there for ages, after watching this I feel like I'll be able to get one! Can't wait to try tomorrow, you da man Ben!
Never once even wanted to do an inward until now. Atleast a nollie inward. I have done normal ones but very rarely but your nollie inwards do look pretty sick. Gonna have to learn them now
they look awesome! =) this was more or less the last trick I learned, before my 10 year pause. thinking back, it's insane, I could do this trick, because today I even struggle with nollie pop shove its -.-
I feel your pain 12 years ago I used to land 360flips and nollie heel easily...last trick I was trying before the injury and long hiatus was backside heelflip
i think straight nollie heels are more difficult. I can nollie inward in about 2 to 3 tries , same with nollie heels. The difference is that i dont practice nollie inwards at all but i have been doing a straight 8 every day for about 3 months ..... your inwards are pretty sick btw
i learned them without knowing nollie fs heels only nollie heel and a shitty nollie shuv it, u only requiere nollie heelflip to be able to do a nollie inward not even nollie shuvs, the real important thing is the foot positioning you showed thats whats enables the rotation just pop a nollie heel and magic u get the nollie inward heel rotation automatically
Ben Degros Yeah, it took a minute getting use to the steepness of the nose, but it’s been butter ever since. They remind me a lot of my favorite boards from the early 00’s made by a short lived company called Popwar. Still one of my all-time favorites.
8.5 boards, 149 indys are the bests to nollie inwards, now im riding a 8 deck with 139 indy standart, so lets see how this one is going to be with my new setup, i was skating 8.5 boards for the past 5 years, now im with the 8 again
Haha wounder what you would say about my set up. I ride like minimal concave i like 54mm wheels 2 mm above standard lol wich also gives them a bit of life. And here is the shocker i like the thicker riser pad the ones that seem like you'd put on a longboard. and another thing I do that most pro skaters would hate on is the fact like i like simular nose and tail so i don't have to worry about it ever feeling different
My nollie heelflips are not so good and I've never landed nollie front heel but my nollie inward heels are so good! Rotation is just easy, easier than in regular inward heels. I wish I didn't twist my ankle:(
I can do them, but sporadically. 95% of the time they only flip halfway, and another 3% of the time my heelflipping foot doesn't land on the board. I'll try your foot positioning to see if it helps, but I doubt it; there's never any magical change that makes me really good at a trick, it's always a long Sisyphean struggle. Thanks, Ben.
just earned a subscriber but i must say if yu havebeen skting for a while and cannot do bollie heelflips or nollie 180 heelflips you can learn this is you can nollie and have been skating for a few years
Hey Ben I’ve got a question. How do yo stop your deck from getting razor tail in 2 sessions. I have just got a new board, like a week ago and have already gone through 5 plys please help!
Nollie Inward Heelflip? Geez man, Im a 28 year old that can barely do a ollie, nevermind Nollie Inward Heelflip, haha Great video as always man, thanks for uploading proper content which isnt just clickbait! Still hope to see a Mini Logo Deck review! SEET!
@@ashton35 that is based on perspective. Compared to my skill set he is very very good. And for skater his age that does this for fun, he is very good. Plus, there is zero value in your comment.
Shut up and skate goes pretty far. Actually researching and learning the basics, while spending time on board pushing down the road or riding back and forth on sidewalks to gain board control
i flick all my nollie heel variations with my toes, set up like a nollie flip but flick it towards the heel side. i can't hang my toes off like you do. but i can't do nollie flips at all
I hate when people say you need to learn “prerequisite” tricks before trying a harder trick like it doesn’t make any sense to me you don’t need to learn nollie halfcab heel to learn this trick don’t listen to this guy i learned sw back heel before i learned switch heel you can do anything you want
Ben, (Letter style) You have 234k views of you building the concrete skateboard ledge. Do more DIY. If it costs money either do a go fund me or just monetize the video. DO it.
I just love your accent. You have the Canadian nice guy accent and it reminds me of every teacher in kindergarten
😊

That is how luan olivera does it
skateman78 Diego Najee’s got pop for days too, check out him kickflip a table the long way
My opinion the nollie inward heelflip is the coolest LOOKING trick there is. Awesome video Ben, I need to learn these so badly!
Badass fo sho

you dont even need a good nollie halfcab heel man i learned them after nollie inward
Thanks so much Ben, I managed to land my first nollie inward based on your advice! Blown away, never thought I'd get one. Now to clean them up! :)

Dude... Great Trick tip. You have really nice nollie inwards.
I’ve kind of stopped skating over the last few years but you make me want to go out there and get tricks. Super rad Ben. Keep on keeping on.

This is one of the steeziest tricks, and thanks for the vid
I was doing nollie inward heel flips in 1992. I just didn’t know that’s what it was called!
Great catches on those.
I just landed 2 clean ones rn god is good thank you ben🤙🏽
Watching the first one you did in slow mo is VERY satisfying
could you do a tutorial for half cab heelflips
This is tight !!! 🇺🇸❤️
Best trick tutorial I ever done seen in the TH-cams!
seeeeeeeet!
No such thing as a Nollie Halfcab Heelflip. But you are still my hero.
Matt Watkinson it’s the same as a nollie 180 heel. i think he knows what he’s talking about
No. I assure you, there isn’t. Halfcab means fakie. Experience: Skateboarding over 25 years and actually giving a shit about trick terminology.
The trick in question is called a Nollie FS Heelflip.
Your videos are brilliant! Been trying these here and there for ages, after watching this I feel like I'll be able to get one! Can't wait to try tomorrow, you da man Ben!
Thanks Ruben! Go get it!
@@bendegros I go'd and got it! Nowhere near as steezy as yours though, you definitely got one of the best

This is really helpful. Can you please please do the same video for a 360 flip? The struggle is real :)
Kick front foot st8 jus a little and scoop that bitch
Sweet, lovely vid Homes
I’ve been skating that same FA board for a while now. It’s perfect. Looks like you’re really using this one up. I also picked up the FA AVE 8.25”
I love it! Wouldn't want to only ride them but I have been having a lot of fun on it.

i can do this but nollie hardflip is impossible to me but u also dont need to know halfcab heels but im sure it helps alot
Seet indeed!
For Fakie, the same foot posion?
i can nollie heel and nollie shuv but this trick never fully rotates or flips when i combine ‘em 🤷♂️
i could never do it, but it would be rad to see a nollie inward heel to manual or dare I say NOSE manual 🙆🏻♂️😬🤭🤔
I saw someone do it to nose stall on transition the other day. Was so sick!.
I'll be learning how to skate at age 36...any tips?
Shut up and skate goes pretty far. Actually researching and learning the basics, while spending time on board pushing down the road or riding back and forth on sidewalks to gain board control
I wanna have them like that leanded my first one yesterday
i flick all my nollie heel variations with my toes, set up like a nollie flip but flick it towards the heel side. i can't hang my toes off like you do. but i can't do nollie flips at all
it’s cuz u like to use ur hamstrings for heel flips when u should just use ur quads to flick the board hard after you pop
After preloading your catapult, nollie inward heelflip, stomp and be stoked. Hell yeah, eh!
That about sums it up!
with you amount of pop you can do even a nollie 360 inward heel
Please review bones easy streets and compare to formula 4a they are bones new wheel and I’ve heard they are as good or even better than f4s
A bit late to this video, but hope once its stopped raining I can give them a good try
