Flip Trick Challenge
[edit]The Flip Trick Challenge is a skateboarding endurance achievement in which a skater lands a rolling flip trick every day for a full year without interruption. The first known documented completion of the challenge was achieved by American skateboarder 0ceanV1bez (also known as Jordan Pond), who successfully landed and recorded a rolling flip trick for 366 consecutive days from June 2023 to June 2024.
Background
[edit]The Flip Trick Challenge is a personal and public performance challenge in which a skater must land one legitimate rolling flip trick per day, with no foot touches, resets, or edited attempts. Each trick must be recorded on the day it was performed and must show the skater rolling into and riding out of the trick cleanly.
Unlike traditional video parts or game-of-SKATE formats, the Flip Trick Challenge emphasizes consistency, mindfulness, and discipline over time, rather than difficulty alone.
Completion
[edit]0ceanV1bez completed the Flip Trick Challenge while alternating between residences in Hawaii and Alaska. The streak consisted of rolling flip tricks performed and recorded daily for an entire leap year (366 days). The footage was compiled into a full-length, unedited video and published to YouTube and the official website, [fliptrickchallenge.com](https://www.fliptrickchallenge.com).
His trick of choice was the heelflip, executed in regular stance on an 8.25" skateboard. Pond stated that although some tricks were close, none involved foot touches or resets, and all were landed with forward motion. The video documentation confirms full compliance with the stated rules.
Documentation and Coverage
[edit]The completed challenge is documented in a published news article hosted on the official website: [1]
The full video is also available on YouTube and the website for public viewing and verification.
Legacy
[edit]Although the challenge has not yet been widely covered by major skateboarding media outlets, it has gained grassroots attention on social media through the hashtags #FlipTrickChallenge and #FTC365. It is currently the only known instance of a fully documented, year-long consecutive daily rolling flip trick streak in skateboarding history.
