Skate 4 – How to Inward Heelflip

Skate 4 has tons of tricks to master, and many are meant to be found as you play. The Inward Heelflip is one of them. This guide will show you how to do it and help you complete the daily Trick Challenge.

Difference Between Inward Heelflip & Standard Heelflip

The Inward Heelflip is a twist on the regular Heelflip. In a standard Heelflip, you flick your front foot out to the side, using your heel to catch the edge of the board’s nose. You can find instructions on how to do a Heelflip here. This makes the board rotate underneath you, flipping horizontally.

The Inward Heelflip is very similar to a regular Heelflip, except the board rotates towards the front as it flips. This makes it appear as though the board is moving forward while spinning.

Guide to Inward Heelflip

Here are the inputs for both Xbox and PlayStation when you are in your regular stance:

  1. Roll the right stick down and to the right. This first move should look like a backslash (\).
  2. Quickly flick the right stick to the left to make the “cursor” straight down from the center of the circle.
  3. Now, swiftly flick the right stick diagonally to the top. This should look like a forward slash (/).

Mistakes & Tips

  • If you pull too much to the right, you will execute a standard Heelflip.
  • You need to keep your flicks tight. If they are too wide, they can easily turn into another trick.
  • This move should happen while airborne, after the pop like an Ollie or Nollie.
  • Practice, practice, practice

The Inward Heelflip is a challenging trick, but landing it will definitely make you stand out and impress everyone when you skate.
