"So the trick that I am going to be running you through right now is a basic one eighty. Your going to want to pop center off your feet just like hitting a regular jump but instead of a one eighty so your going to landing backwards so its really important that you practice right and switch and hitting the smaller jumps and landing the switch twos cause the jumps that were going to be doing this on is a little bit bigger right now. But as you can see I am going to hit the jump with a decent amount of speed. With my feet centered and my hands forward and I am going to pop and pop a one eighty and land switch right away. So as you noticed right there when I landed switch I didn't stop right after the jump I rode it out switch and came forward enough away from the landing so I wasn't in anyone?s way and then when I wanted to stop I was out of the way so nobody was going to hit me. Making it safe for myself and everybody else. And that?s how you land and ride away from a one eighty."
