Skate Shoes - Fallen

Skate Shoes - Fallen
By Geoff Wheeler

Fallen Footwear was started by pro skater, Jamie Thomas,A.K.A., "The Chief," in 2004. Fallen was, at first, to be a partnership between Thomas and DC Shoes. But when DC was acquired by Quick Silver, in late 2004, Thomas decided to move the project to his company, Black Box Distribution.

Originally ,Fallen was to be called,"Armee," but due to hassles with the U.S. Army.that name was dropped and Fallen was born. The company's slogan is, "Rise with the Fallen" or RxWxTxF, in attempts to make the image less negative. Fallen makes some really excellent, top of the line skate shoes, and as Jamie Thomas puts it, "The brand is a symbol of the quality and tradition that all my footwear products have always stood for. Fallen footwear is designed purely for skateboarding."

Fallen Shoes are only found in select stores and Skate shops. Killer style blended with excellent function makes these shoes a constant top choice for skaters around the world. They make great skate shoes for serious skateboarding.

Jamie Thomas has been skateboarding since the age of 11 and got his start in the industry after moving to Southern California and filming for Laban Pheidas company "Invisible" back in the day. Fallen footwear's 1st full-length skate video, is "Ride the Sky," and is due out in the Spring of 2008. Be sure to check it out and enjoy the Fallen skate team rip it up. Next time you're out looking for new footwear be sure to check out Fallen.

How to Kickflip Correctly

How to Kickflip Correctly
By William Leopold

The Kickflip is a very basic flip trick. Many people struggle with the Kickflip because they cannot get the simultaneous motion of the drop-slide kick...and the hang time in the air while the board flips.

There are 3 main steps in perfecting the perfect kickflip.

#1: Place your front foot right behind the second set of bolts right next to the bump in the design of your board. Have your back foot on the tail ready to ollie.

#2: Be on the balls of your feet in the beginning of the kickflip. Drop your backfoot just like an ollie. The second your tail hits the ground, FLICK your front foot off to the side of the board depending on your stance. I say flick near the Bump in your board because that small bump has always helped me maintain a good grip when I flick with my foot.

3#: The Motion is all in one. Drop your back foot, back foot hits flick your board with your front foot, and this is the HARDEST part for everyone learning this....STAY on TOP of your board at all times! It's tough at first. Many people kickflip and their board flys all different directions lol. Stay on top of your board when you flick..and wait until you see a full 360 rotation then STICK it!

The BEST way to practice the kickflip is to find a sidewalk, and place the back set of wheels in the crack of the sidewalk. This way you have Ultimate balance and your board is not moving vs on the street you have the potential to roll a little. Once you master the kickflip, this trick leads to every other tech trick out there and you can take this trick to many different levels once mastered.


Here is a quick link to a video on how to perform the kick flip along with foot placement: http://youtube.com/watch?v=CnwEBsGFw0E
Happy Kickflipping! And watch your shins!!... If you keep hitting your shins you're not flicking right!

Have fun!

Learn To Skateboard - The Easy Way

Learn To Skateboard - The Easy Way
By Andy Jackson

Learners Guide 2 Sk8boarding
Want to learn how to skateboard? Wish you could skate like such pro's as Rodney Mullen, Tony Hawk or Bam Margera? If you're like me you will know how hard it is to learn how to skate. Always bailing and ripping up your elbows and knees. After skating for roughly 3 years I still couldn't land many tricks on a regular basis, so I decided to look online for some good tips and tricks.

After trying many of the instructions, tips and tricks I was given, I was still injuring myself on a regular basis, that's when a friend on MSN told me about a NEW set of tutorials that he thought I should look at. Learning how to skate is not only about where to place your feet on your board but also how you bend your legs and the timing the "pop" of the deck to Ollie into your trick and also how to land the trick. These tutorials will tell you everything you need to know plus much more.

That was over 3 months ago now and since I have learned to skate and can now land Kick-Flips and 360 Backside Pop-Shove-it's 9 times out of 10 and can Ollie onto a bench and 50-50 grind 8 times out of 10. Before I used these tutorials I could barely Ollie up a curb now I can Ollie onto benches and ledges.

I have been practicing only about 3 days a week whenever the ground is dry (in Manchester UK that's not very often) and I'm not at work. So check out the easy way to learn to skate. I guarantee you will be skating better than you ever have with less injuries than you had before. All you need to do is enter your email address and name and you will even receive a FREE guide to landing perfect 360 flips.
