well, got a 2 hours session in yesterday. i have my 360 surface slides(spins?) down. is it better to pull those during a butter slide or out in the flats?
ollies are looking better, usually between 6-12 inches. i want a ollie 180 so bad!! 
i love the feeling of finless but i'm just not used to it yet, after i get some more experience i plan on going finless with an integ board.
can someone give me some advice to landing an ollie 180?
i love this shizzle. |

| get up switch at the beginning of all your runs. when you get comfortable with it landing the 180 will just be like an ollie. youll have it down in a day if you just get board control riding switch. good luck |

very nice advice to start learning switch 
If you want to get a clean poped one think about leting go of your back hand late in the trick, or start with only the front hand and do a handle pass whil turning 180. Now when you pop think about really letting the front of the board take some height and guide the board with both feet. First tries like that you'll probably nose dive but you'll pop it.
just need to adjust your weight back on your switch back foot as you land...
have fun progressing man!!

| remember to lift ur back foot after the board is at the highest point n bring the handle to ur back hip, keep the handle close to ur hip wen ur riding switch, it gives u a bit more stability, once u get them down, u shud try them inside out or offa the lip of the wake for some serious height, then try em w2w, but those r hard |

why does every trick tip say ride away clean. they should say ride away sketchy as crap cause thats most likely whats gonna happen.
*ollie
*turn
*land
*ride away sketchy as hell condsidering you barely landed it. |
