Another tip to help you top up your skatie tech from the sporadic world of WWDTI.

1. Learn kickflips and backide 180s beforehand
2. Set up like you’re gonna do a kicky but twist your shoulders like a bs180 before you pop
3. Pop and flick your front foot

4. If everything is going to plan, you should be turning and the board flipping underneath you
5. If you’re crazy and skating stairs, then you gotta pull the last bit round once your back foot has caught it. If you’re skating flatground, be cheap and pivot
6. Roll away and keep twisting your arms so much that even Marc Johnson cringes
