How many skateboarding tricks are there

An Ollie North trick is quite similar to the Ollie trick. The only difference is that this trick is an Ollie trick where your front foot will be kicking forward over the nose of your skateboard. The Ollie North trick has become very popular for the skaters immediately after getting a grip on the Ollie trick. To do this trick firstly you need to set your feet up and then pop it up in the air and take your foot off the board.

And swiftly put your feet back on the board and roll away. Though both feet are used in this trick, it is often called one foot Ollie also. An inward heelflip trick is a combination of the backside pop shove it and the heelflip. The inward heelflip is quite similar to the hardflip trick. An inward heelflip is just the mirrored version of hardflip trick.

Put your front foot just like you do for an Ollie but put it up close to the edge of the board. While placing your front foot on the side, put it diagonal just as you slide when you do a heelflip trick. The back foot is essential for this trick. Set your back foot up as like you do for a usual heelflip trick, more towards the edge of the tail.

But while doing this trick, you might like to put a little more angle on your foot than usual. Image Source: Deviantart. Now be careful!!! Because, if you are entirely a newbie in skateboarding then this trick is probably not for you. But surely as a beginner when you start doing the basic tricks with safety, then you can do this even as a beginner. This Blunt Fakie trick is pretty much the same as a Rock Fakie. So for doing this trick, you need to go straight up towards a coping onto the tail on up and then you pop it back in fakie.

But be careful!!! A No Comply trick is usually done on the flat ground, such as a skatepark or just in the parking lot. In this trick, the skater pops the board in the air using his back knee while putting his front foot on the ground just for a moment. It is not a difficult trick at all, and it seems quite cool to see.

Also, once you have learned not to comply, there are a million other trick variations you can try. Grinds trick is one of the skateboarding tricking forms where you slide on the hangers of the trucks. This trick is usually performed on an object which may fit between the places between the wheels where trucks meet.

This move was probably originated in the backyard pools, as the first skaters gained skill and safety with their high-speed tent around the walls of the pool and one day they rose too high. Board Slide trick is often known as the Railside trick of skateboarding. To do this exciting trick you will need to slide on the center of your skateboard between the wheels.

This amazing trick is called Railside trick because it is usually don on the rails or a narrow smooth raised surface like rails. This Railslide aka boardslide trick is impressive to see and will give you that thrill of real skateboarding. But however, this trick is a little risky for the absolute beginners.

So, caution is mandatory to take for this trick. The Fakie Heel Flip trick is the mirror of a heelflip, where the only difference between these two is that to do this trick you need to snap from the fakie stance.

Moving on to the inward heelflip, once you know your pop shove-its, ollies and backside pop shove-its you should be ready. This trick is a combination of a heelflip and a backside pop shove-it. Next in line is the backside heelflip. This trick is a combination of a heelflip and backside ollie. I love this trick, it looks so clean and landing it makes you feel like a king. Like many tricks, it requires a lot of dedication and focus. Skateboarding tricks are all about combining stuff and getting creative and this is a great example.

There will be many more combos down the list, just make sure you can do the trick individually before you attempt a combo. This is a combination of a kickflip and a backside ollie, and I personally think this one just looks great and is very satisfying to land.

Another combo of basic tricks. Combine them and you got something impressive. Not sure if I should have listed this earlier, but learning how to shove your board is the start of getting to the next level. It requires a lot of effort to scoop your board all the way around but with the proper technique you can get it down.

Make sure you really master this one before you start combining them with flips. Compared to the previous tricks this one is a lot easier but still a challenge.

You need to scoop your tail hard in order to get it to spin full circle and meanwhile turn your body degrees. A great trick that opens new opportunities. This is a bit harder than the backside big spin, in my opinion. It will make scooping your board less difficult. I LOVE this trick, it just looks pro and impresses everybody.

Even though this on if on the far end of this list I know skaters that pulled this one off before they could comfortably drop in from a mini ramp, go figure.

Same as the previous trick, this one can be pulled off fairly early and to be honest, this list is just a collection of tricks which you can practice anytime you want, you just need to feel ready for it and have the basics in check.

Spin your deck around your back foot and land when it comes to the proper position. Again, I have to credit Radrat for this information because he did a thorough check and makes a solid case. This is pretty hard to do and you need to make sure you know a couple of the following trick before you can pull this off. These tricks are mentioned already but learn the backside Bigspin, Varial Kickflip, and Flip before you attempt the backside big spin kickflip.

If you can reach this level and pop Casper flips occasionally you might have a good shot in competing in a few competitions. Share on Twitter. Share on Linkedin. Share on Reddit.
