|
|
So i got a few back bigs last season. Of course i wanna get those consistent but something on my list for this season is fs bigs
I've tried a few flats, a few re entry, none in/out yet. In the flats i just slip out, and re entry i either catch an edge or slip out. Both ways for some reason i just can't pop it to save my life... I know getting it up a little higher off the water would help. So if anyone's got some tips on popping them higher that will help too  _________________ - Evan Molina |

one tip that helped me was to think of them as a popped fs 180, and then once youve rotated the first 90ish, maybe more, give it a lil kick and it should bring it around. I tried em for a long time i/o, but as soon as i started them in the flats, they became a ton easier...hope this helps. _________________ -Cape Canaveral- |

way easier in flats.
think of popping it like a front one not a front shuv variation, just think of a front one with a little extra scoop, and land over your toes
thats what helped me learn the trick  _________________ Team Dream Sleds
