Kickflip is finished! Probably will take some time before I continue, but please wait patiently.

Love it! Not the best explanation, seeing as you just say apply physics for 10 frames and such, but I know how hard making these tuts can be, so nice job. It'll still have beginners and probably some higher level animators with skateboarding. I still want to see some cool tricks though =P

Thanks, I needed this cause I bunch of people we're saying I suck at doing skate tricks (on pivot ofcourse). Only problem is, the last piv doesn't download right. It says it's not any file type at all. Good tut tough, I'm adding it to my favorites

For the last time... If you download a .piv from filecram, you have to rename it adding the .piv extension... It'll work for you then, okay? I freaking hate when people say it doesn't work, seeing as it's been that way for weeks.

Nice tutorial phoenix. Only thing I can really see wrong is that the back of the board doesn't touch the ground when the guy is ollieing.
In acctual life without touching the ground with the back of the board you get about ankle hieght, if that.

Both works fine for me, Check if you got a pop-up blocker or droidz block or whatever the problem is xD

And yeah, sorry about not touching the ground, I actually just tried to make the frames a little different, he touches the ground, just the frame doesn't show xD Anyways It looked a little weird yes.

Do you actually skate? I'm a skater, and I land kickflips and all that, and believe me, crouching like that does NOT look realistic. It's even more possible to skate in a straight line, trust me, I managed to ollie like that. But you need to have the most sick bendable legs ever to be able to crouch like that. Plus using Jon's flip, you can only flip for 3 frames, first flip, upside down, second flip. Seriously, if you look at the skateboard, you can notice it flipping, it's just when you're not really focusing on the flip, it seems really awkward. Sorry if I seem harsh or anything, I just know that skating crouching like that is not possible in real life, and does not look good in animating either.

oops....idk why I didn't look at your name when I posted that.
Yes I skate. And have you ever seen someone crouch down with both of their knees facing forward.
I didn't think so.
Also, you're not going to be able to get a perfect crouch in pivot.
Did you seriously crouch like that?
His legs aren't meant to be completely to his sides so if you tried it like that, please consider that pivot is 2D.


Just listen to what you're saying... You're saying it looks more realistic having the feet facing opposite direction, sit in a position even deeper than a split and managing to do tricks in that position? At least it's possible to ollie standing in the position I use in pivot.

I am considering that it's 2D, or else I wouldn't make such a section about it >_>

Go outside and skate, try to skate in the position you say is more realistic, and after that, try to do it my position. You're CLEARLY see the difference.

I just can't get over it, standing in the position where your feet is facing opposite directions seems so inhuman you'd expect the balls to rip of any seconds O_o It just seems so incredibly painful!
