try them standing still and coil you body one way and spring the way you spin then when you can do it that way try rolling ones practicing by going up the ramped bits of curb helps alot too so you get a little kick

can you do it on a quarter yet? learn there first (and dont cheat... go up straight, 180, land straight). Once you've got the motion down it's about muscle memory and technique. You just need to get your hop high enough and spin hard enough, since you already have the motion from the practice on the quarter. To get the rotation, turn your head and shoulders as far around as possible and keep trying to look farther around. They are a great little trick once you get it, since you can do it anywhere and if you can fakie more than a few cranks around it can look really cool too. Also, practice sliders. They look cool.

When people say 'look behind you' they dont tell you that what actually is happening is your shoulders are turning. Your shoulders dont always follow your head but if you concentrate on it it will happen. carve the opposite way to your spin and then carve into it so you get a bit more momentum and pull up hard. Also can someone give me some tips on fakies because I can spin fine but my foot always stops back pedalling

i can do them flat but i dont think im going fast enough because i dont start rolling fakie and prolly cuz i try and go forward as soon as i land but going backwards after them seems scary even though i can fakie fine but yeah turning your shoulders and looking behind hels alot cuz your body will follow your head and shoulders
