The History of the Primo
This trick was introduced by Rodney Mullen in his early years of the Bones Brigade.
Steps to learning Primo trick tip
1. Place both feet directly over the bolts.
2. Slide your feet forward so the board flips on its side.
3. Right after you flip the board to its side, jump and land directly on the wheels (this is all to be done in the same motion.)
4. After you land and balance on the wheels, pop the board back down by slightly pushing forward with both feet.
5. Now land right on the bolts and roll away.
Primo Problems and Solutions
Problem: Sometimes when you are flipping the board to its side, it will flip completely over and land upside-down. You might also not flip it to the side at all. It may just come up a little off the ground and not do anything at all.
Solution: Either just push a little harder or a little softer depending on what your problem is and DONT BE SCARED to land on the wheels. It will take a few tries, but its worth it because this trick kills at SKATE if the person you are playing against isnt a freestyle skater.
