Skateboarding

Skateboarding is a sport that is practiced with a skateboard in any part of a street where you can shoot, although you can skate anywhere, since it is a free sport. For example, pools, stairs, streets, etc. The only impediment is the sport street streethudos: bumps, bites, bumps, ... In general, anything that might destabilize the skater. In it, the goal is to find the beauty in handling, not a sport that is directly connected to some kind of competition, therefore, could be called free.
There are several tricks performed on a skateboard, which vary in difficulty. Tips sliding table (wood), called (slides) as the nose slide, boardslide, for agiven area; tricks freestyle (freestyle) (each person shows original tricks and generally complex) tricks ramp which are performed only at those facilities;-called simply trick (trick), consisting of the skate off your feet and turn determined by drawing a figure in the air and then return to the correct position for the displacement, the flip, the hellflip, varials ... and also figures in the tablerotates simultaneously with the whole body, and finally, the manuals, various maneuvers in which the individual moves on the skateboard on one or two wheels and can be one or two feet (one foot : one foot manual / with two feet, manual) if done with the front wheels are called maunal nose and the rear manual only. There are two types of skateboarding: The street or street style, and vertical, whichis practiced also called vert ramps.

The skateboarding is related to street culture. In short it means just skate, which is also the term used to name the skate board on which to practice skateboarding.

Fliptricks

These are the tricks that we commonly run a street skater. The tricks basis of flip tricks are 5.

    * Kickflip: It consists in turning the board 360 degrees along the axis of the skate in the direction of the heel of the foot (back). It's a trick complicated and frustratingat the time to learn. If the skater has already gotten a couple of times you run it will be very easy.

    * Heelflip: Consists of the same as a kickflip, except that rotates in the opposite direction (in the direction of the fingers) and executed by sliding your heel toward the concave of the table.

    * Varialflip: It's a difficult trick is to turn the board in kickflip and a POP SHOVE-ITif you kickflip and pop shove-it will be very difficult not only have to spin a little harder than normal the kickflip, and you can take consider my advice: put your foot below but in the same position of your feet, and will be easier to flip pop shove it.

    * 360 flip: it is to do a 360 shove it coupled with a kickflip.

    * Flip disc, is divided into 2 tricks and varialflip boy....
