weird pivot revert on flat

[AdioGuy]

i didn't know what to call it, but it's like a turn just using your back wheels on flat ground. i was wondering if anyone knew how to do them? i want to do them backside and whenever i try them, i just turn in the opposite direction instead of however i'm already going. Daewon does one in the DVS video if you need a better visualization.

do you mean just a f/s 180 pivot?

[luckysk8er1991]

i think he means like he lifts up his front wheels and powerslides either fs or bs on only his back wheels.

[rodneymullen123]

oh right erm.......
manual powerslide??
not sure tbh

Yes daewon did one in round three in a line. He did that to get into a fakie 180 flip off of the stairs I think.. Those are tricky I can't do them.

Basically daewon has everything that's branched from a manual down really well. He could pivot while he's manualing easily and still maintain the right amount of speed and angle.

oooohhhh i remember now....he did a manual on that step set and thats where he does the pivot thing.
i know what you mean but im not sure what its called sorry.....i'll try find out for ya. :-41:

So, when you try them you can't keep going the same way you were going.
You end up turning the way your nose is?

if so, you have to really throw out your back wheels to get the slide and stay the same direction.

Kind of scoop like a shove-it but don't pop,and then just try to push the back wheels out to get the slide.

Make sure you don't lean forward or else when you get the 180 the board will shhot out cause you're leaning too much.

Hope it helped.

Bs revert? I usually just the motion of a bs 180 and lift my wheels up a little.
