The Triple Flip in Skate is one of the Flip tricks in the game that players must perform six times if they want to complete the Ill-legible quest. When you do this move, your character will jump and then flip their skateboard three times in a row mid-air before hitting the ground. We highly recommend you try this trick on slopes or ramps, as they are the ideal surface for it. Remember that you will need a significant height to make it rotate thrice. This move is all about preparation and precision.

Follow the steps below to perform a Triple Flip in Skate:

  • Find a Slope or a Ramp to jump high enough in the air.
  • Crouch while going towards the ramp or slope.
  • Once you jump in the air, flick and hold the Right Analog Stick towards the top left angle.
  • Release the Right Analog Stick once the skateboard has rotated three times in the air.
  • Land back in the ground.

This technique can be effective for both heelflip and kickflip. However, the elevation of the surface you are using and the momentum you gain from the run-up to said surface are essential to perform the Triple Flip. Moreover, the mechanics for your right analog stick must be clean; otherwise, the trick won’t work. Keep practicing it over and over until you have mastered it. \
