If I become a decent skater without breaking my neck, it’ll be because of you, and these lessons, JB. They are the clearest and easiest to follow tutorials on the Internet!

A homie years ago explained fs power slides on flat to me: you know how when you were a kid you would run and slide on an icy sidewalk? The balance is exactly the same as that

I love your channel because I'm a 47 year old that quit skating back in 1989 because my sponsor didn't send me to Tampa Am. I've started skating again a few years ago, your videos are helpful because I don't remember how I did this shit when I was 14, I just did what I wanted to do because I was more confident back then.Your videos help me remember how I did that stuff and your videos help boost my confidence. I when from Pro at 14, to scared to stand on a board at 44, now at 47 I"m riding mega vert pools (just riding for progression). I think if I can learn these POWER SPINs 360 to perfection, that alone will make it easier to learn 360 ollies again. Thank you very much for making these videos because its significantly helps me more than other videos on youtube!

Best powerspin is the shifty powerspin (on just two wheels). Whips around way faster and smoother than a traditional powerslide, feels amazing. ...actually, the best powerspin is any slide/spin performed on transition haha.

Any tips specifically on 360 rotations?

[@Damoforce]

Wind right up and follow through, I think haha

[@SkateparkLessons]

Wind up and spin hard but try to keep as much weight off and behind your board as possible 💙🛹💙

Is most of the board rotation generated by the rotation of the arms and upper body, or should the back foot, front foot or both actively contribute to the rotation of the board?

[@SkateparkLessons]

Yes swing upper body for creating momentum then hop to break traction to slide around 💙🛹💙

@@SkateparkLessons Great! Do the legs/feet contribute to the rotation at all? Should the heel of the back foot push the tail of the board when doing a frontside spin, for example?

[@SkateparkLessons]

When you hop you use your feet to “push or pull” the board. Backside use toes to hook the tail, frontside use your foot arches to drive heels into slide 💙🛹💙

Reverts are typically done in transitions after tricks, but you could also call it power slide to fakie or 180 slide but 360s take power into your spin so I call them powerspins. Hope this helps 💙🛹💙
