About Max
Expertise
I have been skateboarding for around 7 years; I have extensive knowledge on street skating, including all sorts of flip tricks, tips on popping higher ollies, grinds, slides, rails, ledges, and park skating including transitions.

Experience
Before you email me asking "how do i kickflip??" you should practice it, what can I do, magically make you learn it? All I can do is give helpful tips, so try to ask serious questions, please. Also, I can and will not sponsor you, so don't bother asking.

Question
when i kickflip i turn my body and my back foot comes off (i'm regular) but i have good grip!!And i have enough flip and i can ollie high enough will u please help me!!

Answer
Well, it looks to me like you just need to keep your body and feet directly over the board when you're kickflipping. Your problem is common and mostly due to fear. You might be afraid to totally commit to the trick and you'll turn your body in order to get out of danger. Just practice kickflips in the grass until you have them down, then take it to the street. Just practice.
