How to Laser Flip, Step by Step

  1. Back foot on the heel-side pocket of the tail, front foot in heelflip position near the bolts.
  2. Pop and push the tail forward hard, a full frontside 360 scoop.
  3. Give a light heel kick off the toe-side corner of the nose.
  4. Jump high and stay over the board while it spins and flips.
  5. Catch it once the grip tape faces up and land centred.

Laser Flip Tips

  • Learn a frontside 360 shove-it first. The laser flip lives or dies on that scoop.
  • Do not over-kick. The heel only guides the flip.
  • Expect a long grind of near misses. Film your attempts to see which part fails.
