Skateboarding Tricks: Frontside 180 Ollie Mistakes

Video Transcript

Some of the common mistakes you may experience while learning how to switch front side 180 is that basically you're not able to get enough power out of your switch ollie to get you all the way around. This is pretty common with most switch tricks. You'll find that when you're doing a switch trick it's almost like relearning the trick. So you don't necessarily have it right away. All you've got to do is learn the timing of how to get a good pop out of your nose and able to get you all the way around. So it's just more practice and learning the coordination to get as much pop out of the nose as you can possibly get. The other problem that you may experience learning how to switch front side 180 will be that at first it's hard to get the board all the way around and get it to arc and leave the ground very good. This will cause you to land 90 degrees or maybe half, you slide or maybe do a little bit of a pivot. What you want to do is make sure that your arms move around enough and you get as much pop as possible to get you to travel around in a good clean 180 before landing back and rolling straight away. Another one of the common mistakes that people make is their foot placement. What you have to do is compensate for traveling 180 degrees. So what you want to do is if you start to notice that you land with your toe hanging off maybe you need to set that foot up a little bit further back so that when you do ollie or switch 180 you compensate for the movement of your foot and then it ends up exactly where you want it to be to roll away clean.
