What was your guys first trick and at what age did you learn/start tricking?

Mine was a frontflip and i started like a few months ago =[
So i suck worse than a prostitute doing the vacuuming.

Do prostitutes mess with vacuums? Hmm...

I learned to backflip when I was 17. It took me like 7 months before I could land my second trick, a 540...

i started 12 and a half months ago, my first trick was probably a bkick or a pop360 or something easy haha.

i didnt really pay much attention to 'omg i just landed my very first trick'

but if u wanna know so u can replicate it, yah definately try a bkick or a pop360 or a double cork.

I think kipup was my first trick but that was long ago and I really got into tricking only recently, I learned to backflip too long ago. I guess my first tricks after I started tricking were gainer and feilong.

I was dared to aerial after tkd class when I was 15 or so, and I could kip up and 540 already by this point, but they were 1. A cool way to get up after falling over, and 2 was something my instructor showed me after he went to the states for some seminars and stuff. So I dont count them, I think double leg was the first one I landed after I tried to learn tricks and called them that.

Standing front fleeeep, that was the first trick I done when I decided to start tricking but I could already do them from when I done freerunning (lolol was the only flip I could do), 540 kick was my first trick I newly learned when I started t3h tricks. It was the first one I had consistency on anyway.

Backflip probs, errrr at 14. Then it was the other basic ones like front or side etc.

i could kip up, bkick and front tuck at 11-12, but i didn't actually learn about tricking till i was 18. First tricking trick was a 540, closely followed by a btwist.

Same! Except I may have been 12, I learned a 360 crescent when I was 11, but that isn't a real trick I suppose.
Also I learned Front flips, kip-ups & various kicks when I was 11 but didn't take it as tricking.

kip up :good:

Yeah. I actually learnt Kip Ups ages ago.

But i wouldn't really call them a trick since it's pretty much just a fancy way of recovering from a fall :P

Other than kicks you learn in martial arts [pop 360s, tornados...]
I guess my first trick was a doubleleg after seeing Jimmy Pham do one on ESPN2 at the US Open in his musical form.

When I was 12 or 13 I saw a movie with a tornado kick so I just started imitating that and doing tornado kicks lol. But before I even knew about different tricks I could always do 360 kicks.

Tornado , pop360. Just saw them in a martial art movie and start doing them. They looked like shit and but still if you land them you did them :lol:. First trick that I knew to be a trick must've been an aerial or a shite ass btwist.
