If you are doing a pop shove it you are really doing something wrong.
You have to wind up your shoulders the opposite way you are gonna spin.
As you are ollying, unwind your shoulders. You want to pivot the first 45 degrees, then ollie. as you are in the air you are turning your shoulders and guiding your back foot around. When you are about to land you have to make sure you are looking at where you are about to land. (or facing)
When you have landed it is hard to gonna be keep your balance. A lot of wait is gonna on your front foot, and you might be leaning forward a little, causing you to slip forward.
That's how to 180. Your doing a shove it because you are spinning your feet and not your shoulders.
