This trick is sure to impress folks no matter where you go, but in order to pull it off you'd better have a decent and consistent kickflip, since that is only the beginning of the trick. Roll up to the curb or obstacle just as if you were going to kickflip up it. When you flip your flip, let your front foot just hang there above the nose as your board flips around. When you see the grip tape again, stop the spin with your back foot, then get your front foot on that nose and bring it down before the back wheels touch. Now that you're in the nose manual position, just ride it on out. And remember, you didn't really land it if your back wheels hit the obstacle when you came off, so try it again.
