Donkey Kick
About this trick
The donkey kick is a jump where the back leg extends sharply backward, pushing the tail of the board out and up — like a donkey's back kick. It creates a dramatic, angular board position in the air and is one of the most visually striking basic freestyle jump moves. Requires good core strength and body awareness.
Key tips
- 1
Initiate the kick from peak jump height — don't kick on the way up or you'll lose height
- 2
The front leg provides the counter-movement — as the back leg extends, the front leg stays compact
- 3
Keep the wing stable overhead during the kick — don't let it move as your body position changes
- 4
Bring the back leg back before landing — arriving with the leg extended crashes you immediately
