How to Do Every 180 on a Skateboard - Backside, Frontside and Half Cab

[@Caulkhead]

Mitchie your ability to explain so clearly and concisely regarding body movements and how it should all feel is second to none.

[@SKATEiQ]

Thanks man!

[@jensenacklese3049]

​@@SKATEiQ thank you so much for this video, I'm 40 and find your videos invaluable

[@casualwest]

WHHAAAT!!!! You just adjusted yourself back into position tic tac-ing backwards!! Why is no one talking about this??!!! Really these little board control examples, as insignificant that they might be to you, are really quite amazing. 👏👏👏

[@willshakeyou]

All of his videos are just packed with tiny details just like that. I love it, this dude’s Yoda hahahah

[@SKATEiQ]

Haha that’s great . Yeah I never thought about it 😂

[@duncanwhyyou611]

Thank you for releasing the whole 180 series tutorial!!!

[@SKATEiQ]

No problem!

[@djmax01]

Love how this comes out right when I'm learning 180s 👏👌

[@ricric1978]

Same here!!

[@gilligan1350]

Feel like he was waiting for me to finish the last 15 minutes of the Ollie tutorial. Literally did that yesterday after about two weeks on pause. 😂

[@benjamingordon995]

Honestly was practicing yesterday after I saw the short lol

[@SKATEiQ]

Perfect!

[@luiza177music]

Yours are the only skate tutorials that talk about the importance of your hips (as opposed to shoulders, or general upper body) while rotating. That's invaluable. That said, I was never able to get my 180s really good, looking forward to trying this stuff out next time I go skate.

[@SKATEiQ]

Happy to help! Hopefully it takes you far

[@JohnyDuc]

Yeah that's true. This year I realized, probably thanks to Mitchies videos, that I can imagine hips also like a springload. It helped me so much with airs. I feel it's not that much about the shoulders but springing up hips really helped me realize that the hips are doing to rotation.

[@kevskatesNM73]

SkateIQ is so far the best skate science around. Even if you are pretty good and/or experienced at skating…the SUPER SIMPLE fundamentals come to mind in otherwise “go to” kind of (formerly) mindless tricks. This 180 one for example- bowl skating I do Backside ollies over hips that are NOT a full 180 rotation…or frontside ollies on a bank or pyramid corner (again not the full 180 rotation) but everything he is saying still is important to spotting landings, etc

[@SKATEiQ]

100%. A lot of the theories come from years of transition skating anyways

[@Bfann206]

I'm a PT that just got into skating this year. Your channel has helped me progress so much. It's obvious you understand skating on such a deep level. You can explain things simply in ways I can comprehend, which is not easy to do. Virtually no less. I teach movement for a living and there are plenty of times I fall short of doing this with my patients IN PERSON. Thanks for helping me progress and proving I can still have fun learning to skate at 33.

[@SKATEiQ]

Honestly a PT learning to skate through this channel will be super helpful in so many ways , that’s like the perfect situation 😂

[@Bfann206]

@@SKATEiQ yeah man the way you teach is definitely clicking. Explaining why a trick is able to be done before actually instructing the movement is so helpful. I spent so long over rotating my upper body before seeing your "1 inch punch" hip cue. I'm actually doing proper reverts after watching this vid. Thanks again

[@TheBpella1]

Thank you! These long-form tutorials are invaluable.

[@SKATEiQ]

I personally love them

[@User161803399]

48 minutes on 180’s, pretty awesome! Thanks, it’s so fundamental. I was just working on these last night, having trouble.

[@SKATEiQ]

Hopefully it clears it up

[@ClutchDumars]

I love watching tutorials in order to improve my skills and this channel is by far the best. The editing and explanation are top tier.

[@Theprince-q5l]

He's a gem

[@SKATEiQ]

Thanks !

[@PoserSk8]

I just started skating two months ago. I had a hard time learning the ollie, but then I found a video on this channel that covered ollies for almost an hour, and boom-I was able to ollie in just a week by following the tips from that video. Now I’m watching the 180s backside and frontside videos, and I hope I can learn that trick too after following the tips. Thanks a lot, Mitchie!

[@SKATEiQ]

That’s some quick progression. I’m happy it’s helping !

[@se7en.1995]

This is absolutely radical tutorial brah! super comprehensive and insightful, goes over a lot of things other tutorials dont and I love the way he explains things. Love ya Mitchie, great vid as always. God bless

[@SKATEiQ]

Thank you ! Hope it helps!

[@DayzEnjoyerschile]

Best KZbin channel of skate .... Thats all

[@SKATEiQ]

Thanks !

[@AndrewDangerously]

My skating has improved so much from your videos!

[@SKATEiQ]

That’s so sick

[@SY-vn8nk]

Your videos really help me a lot not only for practicing but also for understanding the ideas of the tricks! I would say the basis of the tricks and how they work? Thanks you so much! Now I can do ollie even though it’s not high or solid yet, but I can feel it! Waiting for more videos and shorts for other tricks and skating videos!!!

[@SKATEiQ]

Thznk you ! Happy it’s helping

[@wanton_chips3638]

I’m just here to watch mitchie’s “incorrect” examples 😂 only thing you’re bad at is skating badly

[@kevskatesNM73]

😂😂😂

[@kevskatesNM73]

Lol I think it was the backside rock n roll one…but I was watching his “bad example” kind of like “hey that’s how I’ve been getting away with them since 1987!”

[@TradingTricks4948]

Calling everyone out lol

[@SKATEiQ]

Hahha I take pride in the back examples and it’s arguably the funnest part of the tutorials for me 😂

[@AndrewDangerously]

Dude, when that shit goes to black and white, you know you're about to see a flop. 😂

[@riccj]

Every single one of mitchie’s tutorials are amazing super detailed and coherent. Makes learning tricks so much easier and gives an absurd amount of understanding for the board. Great video ❤

[@SKATEiQ]

That’s so great to hear !

[@Foopaa2]

Thanks for this. I landed a few of my best bs 180s after watching this video. They felt super solid and fully rotated.

[@SKATEiQ]

No way !!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@KingNull_]

Mitchie is actually the best. I hope to see you make an appearance on the 9 Club sometime soon!

[@SKATEiQ]

Maybe, they haven’t asked me yet

[@bonadio60]

Mitchie, rocks!! Your tips are invaluable.

[@SKATEiQ]

Thanks !

[@zonk834]

Ive been skating on and off for a few years been getting back into it recently. I’ve never had bs180s or anywhere close. Recently this past week or two I’ve started doing the revert drill where I’m heavy on the lead foot and it seems to help with getting the motion. Glad to see I had the right idea all on my own! Will definitely be studying and implementing this, thanks Mitchie!

[@SKATEiQ]

Let me know how it goes for sure

[@zonk834]

@ it’s going pretty well I’m focusing on low pop bs180 the main issue I find is not being able to spread my weight where I want it. Instinctively my body lands either tail heavy or 50/50. Im trying to land nose heavy to get that revert action but my body doesn’t want to. I just have to keep working at it.

[@Lects]

left a comment last time saying i was struggling wit back 180s, got them on lock now ur crazy mitchieee

[@SKATEiQ]

LETS GOOO

[@chengyanslc]

Just when I landed half cab, ans gunning for fs halfcab and fronside, you dropped this!

[@SKATEiQ]

Perfect

[@RedBoard86]

Perfect. I’ve been thinking about trying 180s after doing a few successful 180 powerslides and another KZbinr doing 180 practice. Now Michie has given me good tools to work with

[@SKATEiQ]

Sick! That’s perfect. Combine all the KZbin tips

[@DarkoNomad]

Tutorials like these really makes me want to go out and correct my basics. Thanks a lot

[@SKATEiQ]

That’s the goal !

[@xfcane]

i have just willingly and without a doubt pressed on the notifications bell button, without anyone telling me to do so... thank you very much

[@cookiejuice2006]

Learned backside 180s last week, but i was definitely over rotating my shoulders and not pushing through with my back foot. I was leaving the board behind me alot or landing unstable for the majority of them and couldnt figure out why. This makes so much more sense i cant wait to test the one inch punch tomorrow. Thanks Mitchie👍🏽

[@SKATEiQ]

Hey let me know how the practice goes

[@stealth0757]

You’re the best Mitchie! I’m going to try dropping in again soon after taking a slam last month.

In goofy and the backside 180 is soooo hard. It’s weird because right foot forward on bmx so the 180 turning backside should be really easy…

Same here… I struggle so much with backside turning

[@SKATEiQ]

Backside was always easier for me. Where do you lose it?

if u made a video on nollie back 180s id be REALLY glad bc i cant nollie 180 for shit

How are your nollies?

[@yCaos_bomdia]

@SKATEiQ not very consistent but i think i pop em pretty good when i do land them

[@seth_skates7336]

As someone that used to skate all the time but don’t get much of a chance what should Inreally focus on? I know I won’t be as good as I was but I just want to keep up.

[@SKATEiQ]

Use your board in a traditional sense. Go to the gas station and pick up a snack and skate home. Navigation will teach you the most out of pure necessity and won’t take much time

[@seth_skates7336]

warning for those 35 and over: consult your doctor before doing any sort of rotation. I threw my shoulder out a few months ago trying to do old man 180's and it still hurts
