Step 1: Deck Tips
Hey guys, welcome to Tech Deck Tips season three, The Lost Episodes. The backside smith grind to backside flip out. If you watched the backside flip episode from season one then this guy shouldn't be too hard. I guess the hardest part is locking on a clean back smith. Back smiths on Tech Decks are a little difficult because they leave your fingers in an uncomfortable position. Also make sure the obstacle you are grinding really grinds, because it's very easy to get stuck on a smith grind when you're on a Tech Deck.
Step 2: Prep Your Fingers
Once you've got your back smiths on lock, prep your fingers by adjusting to a kick through position. It would be nice to pop your back smith position so that you already land in kick through position. Trust me, it'll just make your life easier.
Step 3: Rotate Your Hand Clockwise
When you're ready to backside flip pop a kick flip only rotate your hand clockwise 90 degrees so that you can do a 180 flip off the grind. It might take a while to get them down perfect, but once you get them down you will look very stylish.
