## What this trick is
Frontside 180 is a 180 degree ollie rotating frontside (anti-clockwise if regular).
## Before you try it
You should be able to ollie, and be comfortable riding fakie for the landing. Frontside reverts are useful but not essential. Body varials are a great way to practice rotating your body!
## How to do it
1. Foot position - Usual ollie stance.
2. The trick - Pop the ollie and rotate your leading shoulder behind you. Keep looking at the nose of the board as you rotate around.
3. The landing - Aim to land front wheels first. Back wheels can pivot or revert the last few degrees if a full rotation is not achieved.
## Common mistakes
- Trying to turn with the legs rather than the upper body
