Frontside 180

A frontside 180 off a kicker means spinning with your chest opening toward the downhill side and landing switch. Approach on your heel edge, pop off the lip, and rotate 180. You land riding switch, so make sure your switch riding is solid first.

Key tips

• Wind up your shoulders slightly before the lip
• Pop first, then spin — don't spin off the lip
• Spot your landing by looking over your back shoulder
• Land switch with your knees bent and weight centered
• Master flat ground 180s before taking it to the kicker
