Doing a Back Side 180 Skateboarding Trick

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name's Ryder Mackey, I'm here today with Expert Village. I'm going to talk about the Back Side 180. You're going to place your front foot at a 45 degree angle, about an inch behind the front bolts. Your back foot is going to be on the tail, and your front toes hanging off the edge a little bit, in front of you. And you want to bend down, and bend your, turn your shoulders this way, backside, and you want to pop your tail in the air. But, as you're popping your tail, you kind of want to scoop it behind you, that scooping motion will turn your skateboard better, and you can land the 180. If you landing the 180, the Back Side 180, you're not fully turned. If you're about halfway or so, the scooping motion will allow your weight to be on this side of your skateboard, which will allow you to just kind of scrape your wheels, in a turning motion to complete your 180, if you need to."
