You Ollie onto the top, hold the Manual position and then just before you get to the end, instead of rolling straight off, you'll got Front Side 180 to Fakie. One way to do this, is to, set up in the Manual position so that your body is turned just before you 180 Out. You'll want to set up your upper body to almost be where you want to land in the trick. Your Manualing and your upper body and your shoulders are going to predict the direction that you're going to turn. Just before you get to the end, I'd suggest about six inches to a foot before the end, you get your shoulders adjusted and then Front Side 180 Out and land Fakie and roll away. So you Ollie up, you Manual, and just about six inches before the end, you adjust your weight. Get your shoulders in the position that you want to land in and Front Side 180 and roll away Fakie. "
