For this second post about skateboarding I shall pick the kickflip. This trick is easily my favorite because its always fun to land a clean kickflip off a set of stairs.This trick was filmed and created in 1983 by the legend Rodney Mullen, he had more of a kick down set on this trick but it has evolved into more of a pop and flick sort of motion initially the trick was named the magic flip by Mullen but I guess kickflip just kind of took over. You pop your tail and once off the ground you flick hard with your front foot off the corner of the board.
