try this at home

rodeo sequence

  • how to do a backflip 180 melon (i think)
  • Step1 Just as you reach the take off start to prewind your body then bend your knees to maximise popin ability in it.
  • Step2 Take off as if your going for a frontside five but before you get to 180 grab your board drop your front shoulder and look down, you might find it easer to bone your front leg at this point, I do.
  • Step3 Keep looking round, you probably will make it, but if not don’t blame me,
  •  Really though if you can see a trick in your head you’re a lot more likely to make it, but if you can’t id recommend a foam pit before giving it a go.
  • Step4 you see the landing pretty soon on this trick, don’t take you eyes off the little babber.
  • Step5 Let go of the board and it should come round naturally,
  • this is a really flowing trick so if you get the right motion off the lip the rest should just happen,
  • My back arm naturally points at the landing but if you are having trouble nailing this little badger that could be something to try.
  • Step 6 Land on your feet, ride away and claim like you’ve never claimed before.
  • To sum it up the whole of this trick is in the first 180 if you get that right you’ll be laughing, Also everyone has a different way of doing the same trick so don’t hold me to what ive said.
