Answer #1

When you pop you’re kicking it down with your front foot, kick it out towards the nose and pop it as you would for a ollie! (its all in the wave motion)

Answer #2

well before you kickflip you need to be pretty good at ollies and you need to be able to ollie at least a board high the higher you can ollie, the easier kickflips will be as you know you need to pop the board up and flick the board then as you flick you bring both feet up towards your chest, allowing the board to spin its full rotation, then land it maybe you might need to pop more, make sure you get the board as high as you can, then flick then bring your legs up towards your chest more also remember to keep the board under you a lot of practice will eventually make you learn how to spin it faster or slower so remember to keep practicing
