1424 Kickflips on a skateboard in a row

skateboardingmagazine.com — A Kickflip is defined as a variation on an ollie where the skateboarder flicks his front foot off the heel edge of the board as he ollies, causing it to flip once, twice or even three times before he ‘catches’ the board with his feet and lands the trick.

  • louiebaur, on 07/04/2008, -3/+14Man that is a lot of kickflips! Mad props to that kid it must have taken him over an hour to land that many in a row. A world record as of this point!
    • je12u, on 07/04/2008, -0/+4lol @ "must have taken him over an hour"

      ...ya think??
      • Cancerkitty, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2Man, it'd take me ages to land a single one, let alone 1400. Sheesh.
  • LewP, on 07/04/2008, -1/+11Pretty amazing when I think about it. And really, to do that many flips in that length of time is amazing as well...whew...I'm tired just thinking about it.
  • starskii, on 07/04/2008, -3/+5Wow that is a crazy number of kickflips!
  • TheJalu, on 07/04/2008, -1/+45And i can't even do one :(
    • louiebaur, on 07/04/2008, -3/+2Yea I missed the kickflip era as well and I can barely do them
  • AussieCynic, on 07/04/2008, -1/+14Man I can't even get a skateboard off the ground let alone get it to flip as well!
  • cbergstrom, on 07/04/2008, -1/+8Those have got to be some strong leg muscles... I doubt I'd have the stamina (if I even had the balance) to do more than 10-20 in a row.
    • AchaIemoipas, on 07/04/2008, -1/+3Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I don't think I could do that many jumping jacks in a single day. Nevermind in a row.
  • gabe37, on 07/04/2008, -1/+19I was thinking Tony Hawk Pro Skater cheats. haha But this is pretty amazing!
    • winmywii, on 07/04/2008, -1/+6You don't even need to use a cheat do you? I remember the old games you could do insane combo. Back flip -> manual -> kickflip ->grind ->manual -> etc.. repeat about 10 times and beat the required score in 1 single combo.
  • weaseloption, on 07/04/2008, -1/+18video?
  • splinter09, on 07/04/2008, -2/+4That is Insane over 1400 kickflips in a row, that was the first trick I learned after the ollie, but I wouldn't even think of doing 1400 kickflips
    That is amazing....
  • Babel33, on 07/04/2008, -1/+36What, no video?
  • NuclearPyro, on 07/04/2008, -9/+3pshhh chuck norris could do 1424 kickflips in a row whilst he sleeps!
    • forcedfx, on 07/04/2008, -1/+9Chuck Norris does not sleep... he waits.
  • musntSurfatWork, on 07/04/2008, -1/+22it took me 1424 kickflips before I nailed my first one!
  • ritter99, on 07/04/2008, -9/+4hmm ... youtube says http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIHsFtpXzzE maybe it's the same guy (Christian Brekke), it's a ... hmmm .... some sort of ... hmmm ... er ... skateboard my first camera movie
  • Jenadae, on 07/04/2008, -1/+8This is one of those competitions id like to see Rodney Mullen enter into...
  • FreeTalkLIve, on 07/04/2008, -5/+6If God had wanted you to roll around, you would have been born with wheels on your feet.
  • Steinr, on 07/04/2008, -0/+5and I can't even do one. Congrats to the guy!
  • fudsak, on 07/04/2008, -1/+11Do work, son.
  • kosmoss, on 07/04/2008, -0/+12Video or it didn't happened.
  • jondicks, on 07/04/2008, -0/+4that is awesome - have a lot of respect for that
  • ismschisms, on 07/04/2008, -0/+23Holy *****! I did 4 in a row once and I've been bragging about it for 10 years...
  • Bornhuetter, on 07/04/2008, -0/+39Should have stopped at 1337
  • bobbknight, on 07/04/2008, -9/+2This kind of crap makes me think of the guy that can lift 300lbs with his balls or the other guy that has fingernails that are 10ft long.
    I couldn't sit and watch the fingernails grow, nor could I stand around and watch someone do more than 1400 kick flips.
    I have a life.
    They should find one too. Go get laid, read a book.
    • m0rdecai, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Yeah, clearly doing some sort of contest negates you from having a life, especially when it involves doing 1400 kickflips.

      But you know digging 1,647 articles, and leaving 903 comments clearly hasn't taken as long as doing 1400 kickflips, congrats on your life.
      • GunnerMan, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Well said m0rdecai, because if you call digg a valid part of your life well then you probably don't have a life.
  • Grepus, on 07/04/2008, -0/+3Ye olde 500 rears its head :(
  • AmyVernon, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2wow
  • beatoven, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2i can't even do an ollie
  • steveoco, on 07/04/2008, -0/+6Poor Zach... doubles the previous world record and then gets beat not long after. Good to see they gave him a mention.
    I guess kickflips are like the equivalent of throwing a three pointer... taking a very small part of a game and trying to perfect it solo.
  • rainfosys, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2man I cant even do 1 kickflip let alone 1424 that kid is amazing!
  • theguitarman2, on 07/04/2008, -0/+5Damn now let see him do that again...with heelflips
  • ismellfunny, on 07/04/2008, -1/+1I'm becoming a Hindu. Rodney Mullen must have been reincarnated. I miss watching skate videos and knowing I can't do any of that stuff ever.. Rodney Mullen=http://youtube.com/watch?v=1U-cgn3cEGA
  • Oddish, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2This needs video.
  • jamesinraro, on 07/04/2008, -1/+1Who cares? What a bunch of lamers.
  • petaganayr, on 07/04/2008, -1/+2Someday this person will realize that this stunt was a complete waste of time and effort, because nobody cares about how many kickflips you can do. It is just entertainment. Digg me down:-)
  • shamanking911, on 07/05/2008, -0/+2how do you do to in a row without rolling away after the first? :<
  • SagaMatkat, on 07/05/2008, -0/+1Ana Maria Prodan: "Mutu se roaga de mine sa-l iert pe Dica" : http://digline.net/story.php?title=Ana_Maria_Proda ...
  • LawJik, on 07/06/2008, -0/+2Im pretty sure this record was set on Rob & Big.

    duh
  • daxxer, on 07/07/2008, -0/+2I'm thinking an ollie majollie 600 times in a row would kick ass as well ...
  • somegezzer, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2So what he is trying to say is he has got kickflips in the bag. Do you think he had to have a pits stop to change shoes as you're going to get through a few pairs of trainers doing that.
