180'ing down pretty big stuff

[iamflameboy]

ok, i got my 180s down on flat and off curbs. I can do them off small ledges when going parallel. My problem is when im rolling upto a ledge head on and i 180, i always get scared and kick my front foot away, or i keep my feet on and i over rotate, or the nose hits the obsticle and i fall....

any help will be greatly apriciated

i had a think and i'd say tape your feet to the board, with possibly gaffatape or some kind of yellow string

Haha,I can switch 180 better than I can regular 180,isn't that sad?

[AIRZ1]

no....so can i

It's not sad, It's most likely because you know you're gonna land in your regular stance, same with me..Lol

that is acceptable because when doing switch 180 you land in your better stance whereas when doing a normal 180 you land in switch

Yeah I guess you're right.

Okay, the trick is to ollie and then to push the 180 with your feet.
