JOSHUA BLANKENSHIP: Hi, my name's Joshua Blankenship of Expert Village and I'm going to be teaching you how to do a frontside 180. Okay, so you're feeling pretty comfortable with all the steps with the frontside 180. You got a good pop, which is getting the board up the air. You're sliding your foot and it's leveling up. You're rotating your shoulders around and then still turning the board all the way around. And now you're landing and rolling away smoothly. So the next step is to getting some speed and try it moving. Take some practice and it'll look kind of like this. So just remember, use those 4 steps: pop, slide, rotate your shoulders, land on the bolts, and you should have no problem doing the frontside 180 as moving. Just keep trying them until you get them and then try it on bigger stuff.
