I was skating I decided when I was on the ground. Cause i suck. I decided that I would buy a freestyle board. Is this a good buy. Or is it another one of my stupid ideas. i like the skids on the tail and nose because my tails and noses look like triangles. Or spears. Ha. I am into freestyle. I can't do anything except railstand combos. My favorite is the primo slide. It's fun. I think it is my style, but I never had one. What do you think??

Just keep practicing, and I recommend you get those trucks if you think they will help. As for the kickflips, you will get better at them, it's almost impossible to get worse. It's a good idea to try fakie flips while you're learning, they are actually easier. Nailing the footing problem is just looking at the board. You have to do each step one at a time. Look down when you're in the air, and when you see the grip tape again plant your feet back and you should nail it.
