"Hi! My name is Evan Blankenship with expertvillage.com, and I'm going to be teaching you how to backside 180. Now that you've got your back 180 down on flat ground, the next thing to step it up to is a curb. Look somewhere you near your house. There's got to be a curb around. They're pretty much everywhere. What this does is it gives you a good time to learn how to drop. Just remember, set your feet up like an ollie, bring your shoulders up, pop, swing your shoulders around, finish the rotation, and roll away clean. What you want to do is always ollie whatever you're going to do first. Get a feel for it and get the timing. I’ll show you what an ollie looks like. So, now you got the ollie down, you start trying to learn how to back 180. That's how you back 180 off a curb."
