I've landed 3 or 4 heelflips. I would've landed a bunch more, but i can't get the board to spin fast. Any tips on spinning the board faster?

Try to change the angle you kick your foot. Your foot may be naturally trying to follow the same direction you kick for an ollie or kick flip. Concentrate on kicking towards the edge of your board more and less upwards towards the kick. Also if lean your weight to far infront of you (towards your toes not the direction your moving) Try keeping your shoulders back as you bend down.

Try changing the timing between the pop and the flick, that helps me every try actually

When I started my heels always wanted to flip with my front foot hanging over if your regular . Then I learned that if you just pop an Ollie then flick really hard and exaggerate your foot you flip the board with it will spin much quicker. Also when doing heels get a lot of pop other wise the board will not flick properly. That's what I know good luck!

I had the same problem make sure your flicking hard enough with your front foot, but remember not to slam the board down.

Make sure you have the right foot position that really helped me
Yes have your board crooked and not the same way as the Ollie, more of your toe pointing off the board👌✌
Slide your foot like an Ollie
But to the top right if you are regular like me
I had that problem and I just had to slide faster/stronger so the board spin faster
Put your lage that you spin with it more clother to your pop lage
Lean forward
The more you place your front foot upwards, towards the nose, the slower it will spin. So try to balance the placement of your front foot :)
I would kick a your foot faster and turn your foot over while kicking
Keep the front foot a little back for more faster spin see if that helps
I had the same problem so I non stop would practice just flicking the board to create muscle memory
You can try putting your front foot a little more off the board.
Put ur foot of a bit more than a ollie and just kick it as hard as u can and just don't stop practicing
as soon as u slide ur foot up to the top flick ur ankle forward into the pocket of the nose
Make sure your foot stays completely in contact with the board while sliding it up. You will get better flick that way
flick upward more
Make sure u flick is hard as u can
When flipping the board try to kick it harder so it will spin faster
So what u should do is when ur heel spins the board make sure to kick it fast enough so that u can catch the board
Try putting your foot in middle of the board that helped me spin it
Just flick harder
Flick more stronger. Just push front foot more
Slide your front foot more like an ollie when you start the trick then flick your foot. (Remember every trick starts off with an ollie)
Move you foot down the board and experiment with foot positions
Its either putting your foot a little lower on the board(might rocket if you’re timing is not that great) or when you pop wait a little then flick. Also try flicking up that could give it enough flick to spin all the way and after that just spot the board and land it, dont be scared, you got this!!!
Make sure to flick off the nose and don’t lean to far forward
Bruce Lee kick the shit out of your board
when you pop and flick you should keep your back foot more towards the back to even out the weight of the board so you don’t fall off balance when you come to pop it and then you want to flick your heel and pick your back foot up and jump it’s one whole motion
Bring your front leg back towards the middle of the board more. This helps to flip it faster. Also another piece of advice I can give is to jump higher than you think you should.

You have to do your Foot-Setting Right it‘ll be no Problem anymore

Try to kind of flick your heel into the board and not just go straight out

Practice
Put your front foot closer to middle and put your back foot to the back edge of board so you pop with only your foot fingers
Lean back, and as you flip, lean a bit the way of your front foot.
