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've got your frontside 180s good moving and you're ready to step it up a little bit, get them higher. A good thing to practice on would be a curb, trying to do frontside 180s up the curb. So find a curb like this one and just go ahead and start trying to do frontside 180s up it. It might help you to do an Ollie up at first, because it'll help you get the timing, and you just got to make sure to focus on the pop when you do your frontside 180 so it gets high enough, and then the landing, and would look kind of like this. Once you get your Ollie's got up the curb, go ahead and start trying the frontside 180. And that's how you frontside 180 up a curb. Just remember you gotta pop it good because you're going up something. Suck up your legs, land it and roll really clean.
