KickflipKickflip is an aerial skateboarding trick where the skateboarder kicks his board in order to make it flip 360 degrees. It was invented by Rodney Mullen. A kickflip is executed similarly to the ollie but in the initial stance the skateboarder's front foot is placed on the heel edge of the board. When the skater performs the kickflip the front foot slides along the edge of the board and eventually slides off. Because the force from the front foot is not applied to the center of the board it makes the board flip. After the board has flipped 360 degrees the skateboarder stops the rotation with his feet and lands the trick. The basic kickflip variations are nollieflip, switch kickflip and fakie kickflip. They are kickflips that are performed to the 3 basic ollie variations.
