This is exactly how I learned how to impossible when I was in middle school. Learn Pressure flip > 1 foot on the ground impossible > Fast plant impossible > impossible. I haven't skated in 20 years, and I hopped on a board at work and could still do it!
Learned these last night. I'm 46 and I've wanted to do them since I was a teenager, never got around to it. Saw myself doing it perfectly in a dream a few days ago. Dreams can come true folks. If anyone's having difficulty I'd recommend either learning or at least working on pressure flips first to get the idea that your back foot has to push down near the truck and get under the board, then learning impossibles on a really smooth surface. It just didn't seem to work on a rough surface.
@@Nanaminanaminfor real, it’s like your brain and body become one during sleep and if you learn a trick asleep it becomes easier to do awake. That happened for me when I was learning to Ollie up obstacles like curbs. Couldn’t do it one day, had a dream that night of me doing it and how my body felt during the movement and I did it the next day. Crazy stuff, has anyone else noticed this?
"One of the coolest tricks in skateboarding" - Also the trick that broke my favourite board ever :( The Plan B Sean Sheffey "Troll" board. I'll never forget that sound...it was only a week old or something. Best board I ever had, if only briefly. Nice high pop, good wrap, landed fairly straight legged right in the middle......crack. Regretted learning impossibles at that point. Really good explanation by the way :)
@@joshrodin7394 It was a long time ago now so doesn't matter. Who am I kidding? - on that board I learnt impossibles, late shoves and pop shove late flips all in the same day. That board was amazing......still hurts it was over so soon.
I really feel like this is a "easy trick". When you first learn to get it around the foot it just feels so natural, it was one of the tricks i learned the quickest. Landed it in under 20 tries first time, and landed it consistently after a week. Absolutely amazing trick
i accidentally pulled a no comply impossible out my ass… i didn’t know what it was until someone told me and it was so easy that i decided to learn how to do an actual impossible. i find it easier than a kickflip tbh. i only know how to ollie and impossible 🤣 crazy asf to me
Hey man, this tutorial is legit! I got closer to landing an impossible in 15 minutes than I have at landing a kickflip in 15 years!😂 yes, I'm terrible at skating but at least I try 😎
I get it, I feel like nothing comes easy to me on a skateboard, but I still love skating. These tutorials didn't exist when I was a young skater, they really help.
Johnny might be my favorite human on this planet. I could watch that man teach me literally anything for hours. I absolutely love his energy and passion.
Hey Jonny! Your teaching video helped me how to scoop the Board in the right way. I injured my ankle really worst and after recovering i forgot erverything about that trick. Before my injury, i had really really nice Impossibles. It's one of my favorit tricks on a board. Today i watched your lesson again and the camera angle from behind while you are doing the trick in standing position, helps me so much. It shows me perfeclty, how i can scoop the board without leaving when its rotate. I saw, you scoop it inwards AND when you got the scoop, you jump with it a little bit forward. That was the key for me and i thank you so so much for your effort! My Favorit skater of all the time ! 😊 Greetings from the north of germany "Niedersachsen"🙏🏻☺️
still having trouble on mine, ive been trying them for a few weeks now and it just won't click for me at all, what did you change in your pop/scoop that was different from before? Whenever I try it sometimes it will do this 540 underflip because my toes get under the board when I lift, causing it to flip! Any help would be appreciated!
Hey Jonny this is a great video, and I have been skating your Cerberus Reissue for 20 days now and it’s the best board I’ve ever skated no joke I’ve even landed a 360 double flip to rail by accident somehow and thanks for the trick tip been trying to learn these!
Johnny is one of the only skaters that can actually impossible, everyone else always does that dumb ass 3 shove bull shit where the foot touches the board as it goes around so its technically an impossible. Props to you Johnny for actually mastering this trick
As far as I remember, the Impossible was super popular in street skating when the H-Street Hokus Pokus video came out in the nineties. But I also faded away quite quickly again as all kind of flip tricks got more popular.
A lot of people are probably going to come and watch this after the most recent battles at the Berrics! A proper impossible has the foot wrap not just a 360 shove with your toes touching the board the entire time and that's why you've always been one of my favorite skaters very intricate and Technical!
I’m a pretty technical flatground skater but I’ve never learned this one, hopefully I’ll Get it down one of these days, this video definitely helps! Thanks dude!!
Thank you so much! Used to have these as a teenager. Now Im 35 and couldn’t remember how to do them. Just landed one after I saw this video last night. Your trick tutorials are fire!
MOO!!! That 🐮 is beautiful! Your local park has everything I could want in a skatepark!! Viewers “Need More Cowbell!!” I love the trick tips, but that cow stole the show!
That cow has the life, gets to watch people like jonny giger skate everyday. Don't know why but I paused the video right as the cow appeared on screen. Maybe it's a sign of sorts.
3:40 I also like to have it on the football :P Thank you Jonny, very insightful tutorials as always! Impossibles have been on my dream trick list for the longest time.
This is legit! Tru wrap .. too many ppl out now passing a 3 shove with their toe following or trailing the back tail. Well done Jonny for a legit wrap 👏
@@syrupyouth kick flip, heel flip, tre flip, bs/fs 180, fs 360, nollie, but the only one similar in any way to an impossible is the tre. Impossibles are weird because the scoop motion is very different from every other normal pop trick
I do not know how to Impossible at first but I accidentally done it while learning Kickflip Shuv when I missed the flip. Thank you for the great tutorial shifu Jon.
Holy shitcakes! I cannot wait to learn this trick. Just started again after 7 years of not skating but ima get it one day. Great video! Will come back to this when Im good enough, thank you:)
Thank you for making another video on this, I've been watching your original impossible tutorial vid. This is much more informative. A varial heelflip tutorial would be sick!
I made it up to footplant impossible back in the days but was unable to figure out how to get that front foot out of the way. So thanks, I'll try it next I'm on my board.
I do them old school where you kind of pressure impossible. You put your back foot in the pocket with toes hanging over and front foot on front corner with just the ball right behind your big toe. Put a lot of pressure and just pop off your front foot and board will wrap itself with just a little scoop. The funny thing is you can do one footed 360 with same setup by rotating your shoulders and following with your body. The rotation prevents the board from wrapping, but it stays with your back foot.
This is a great tutorial Johnny, much tutorials teach 360 pop shove it . But they are not te same trick, just similar. You explained very well. Thank you.
I've been doing the no-comply variation for a few years now... I love the feeling and look of it but I still haven't landed a standard one. Might be time to work on them :) Thanks for the tips!
I havent skated in three years due to an injury I had but damn now when I'm recovered I really wanna get into it again. I miss owning my best buds in S.K.A.T.E :)
I have the same foot set up. But I'm finding nose hook impossibles hard because of it. Glad I never lost this trick, I have to get it consistent again though
My favourite trick 30 years ago. Still got them down while bored in lockdown
I remembered when was created
90s.
For me too, I will try again today
Old man im proud of you
@@gamination1519 i hope u will be old one day

Just learned this trick used to think it was never gonna be done then now it is one of my favs
