57episode  Kickflip Considerations (1)   .......SK8-60

I've stopped practicing Kickflip because I end up kicking downwards (when I spin the skateboard in the air), but I'm not ready to give up so I'm continuing to look into it and study various things. I also wanted to examine the things I couldn't do, so I'll summarize them in my analysis of Kickflip.

What I couldn't do was Kickflip, which is the most difficult of the basic trick, so I probably should have started with POP shove-it or 180. However, as I have said before, it was my desire to escape aging and old age that led me to make the decision to try skateboarding tricks at the age of 60, as I had dreamed of starting able to do Kickflip. All I could see was only Kickflip. I'm getting older , so it wouldn't be surprising if I was no longer able to do the practice of skateboard tricks at some point, so I was glad that I started with Kickflip.  So I was right. I went for it with passion and made my dream come true (not the results). I've come to think this way over time. It's a good memory for me (although at the time I felt like I wasted my time because I couldn't do Kickflip).

I'm done being satisfied with a challenge. From now on, Kickflip are all about how I can do it. I want to master Kickflip. However, Kickflip is the most difficult skateboarding trick , which was the my main theme of skateboarding tricks covered in episode 55, because of the reaction time (coordinating the left and right movements) when I snap the skateboard. I am clumsy and have difficulty moving each side separately, so I am not good at it in the first place and I don't know if I will ever be able to acquire the ability to do it accurately. As I wrote at the beginning, I won't give up until I can do Kickflip. This is all I have.I cannot make a judgment regarding suspension of Kickflip at this point. I would like to make a judgment on this matter in the future and summarize my findings in Kickflip Considerations .
