i currently set up with my back foot slightly pointed and on its toes, with my front foot pointed slightly more than a kickflip. but i find the trick to the trickis no actually the positioning so much as the motion, try not to stiffen up when attemptng the trick or you will get no where (the ones you do land will be horrible) instead relax through the motion of the shuvit, work on a smooth 360 shuvit and thread a slight kickflip through it, control and fluidity are the by-words in this game

I find a key to the flip is try not to actually feel the board against your flicking foot. I kick it out straight, and it'll feel like you've missed the board completely, but it'll still flip.

this trick is mostly in the back foot. just kick like a kickflip with the front foot and don't worry about it unless you're having major problems flipping the board. to start with you'll find it easier to have your front foot towards the middle of the deck. pop off the back foot as you would a pop shove it; twist your toes inwards. as well as this sweep your whole back leg around. the board should spin far enough, and flip if you work your front foot properly.
many people say it's all in the toes, and i agree with them.

There was footage of a late back foot double heelflip, if that's any substitute.
I face forward, towards the nose more with 360 flips and have my back foot diagonal across the tail. My front foot is further back than I would set up for a kickflip. Then just try different techniques of flipping; if it flips too much then flip it less, that sort of thing.

The Tre Flip is nothing to sweat over. Most of the trick is in your back foot, so you want to ignore your front foot's tendency to over-flick.

when i was learning these i couldnt get them. as soon as i got a new deck they came easy. i think thats the case with most tricks, you dont need a good deck to do them but learning them it does help to have a bit of extra pop and a longer tail.
bastien salabanzi's tres are a good way to learn them. i noticed that when i was watching really sorry. they look like the cleanest tre ever done by someone whos been skating for like 18 months. his front foot is in the middle of the board and pointed foward with his back foot very over the toe side and he accentuates the shuv alot. so yeah sit down and watch those for a while.
