To land the trick, jump off your front leg and use your back leg to tip the board back over onto the wheels.
From here, assume Flamingo Position as seen in our video above. Use your back foot to scoop the board up and behind you, pressing the board against the calf of your front leg. The “Beginner” FlamingoĪ Flamingo is not a beginner trick on a skateboard, but Jason Park showed us the beginner version of the Flamingo that is accessible to skaters of all levels! Pop off the tail of your board and step off with your front foot as the same time. Run at a decent speed, drag the tail, and throw the board down at a slight angle to have the board bounce back to the wheels. If you’re going too slow, the board will have more trouble flipping back over onto the wheels. Then drop your board on the ground grip-side first, allow it to flip back to its wheels like the Falcon Stomp, get your feet on the board and roll away clean. With your board in your front hand and the grip facing forward, run at a comfortable speed, dragging the tail of your board on the ground. This trick is a descendant of the Falcon Stomp. Once the board flips back over, get both your feet on the board and BOOM! Falcon Stomp complete. The toes leaving the board last will be what flips the board over. Use your back foot to stomp down on your board and as you lift your foot off the board, press down with your toes last. Place your deck on the ground with the griptape facing down, wheels facing up. Made famous by the great and wonderful Todd Falcon, the Falcon Stomp consists of stomping on your board with the hatred and anger of one thousand suns and getting it to flip back onto the wheels.
