Nollie flip is a trick, that's the way skaters say it now for nollie kickflip
Alright, so if you want to learn how to kickflip you first need to know how to ollie, and ollie well, when you can do that. You have your backfoot in the same place as an ollie and your front foot on 3 inches behind the bolts with your heel hanging off alot. Then you pop the board, and as your foot is sliding up you flick out, which causes the board to spin. Also, you don't have to slide your foot all the way to the end of the board, you can end at the bolts, that is how I landed my first one. Also, when I was first kickflipping, if you are really only trying to land it, then try not to flick your foot out as much, but flick it downward, if you know what I mean. Not out, but down. And don't forget to jump high and commit. When you see the grip, stomp your feet, bend your knees, and roll away, or you could look it up on youtube. Another good place to look it up on is ehow. www.ehow.com

What skateboard deck has the most pop?

Many decks are made by the same manufacteurer. For example: Almost, enjoi, and darkstar are all made by the same wood supplier. The amount of pop in decks is all about preference.
