Learn to Frontside Pivot on a Skateboard on a Mini Ramp

[@davidtrin]

You nutter,fakie fs 5-0 as a warm up to the trick! I’m going to try it but I just got fakie fs stall, it’s so interesting to see skateboarding being so unique to every skater. Another great revisit. 👊🏼

[@JonBishopSkate]

Many thanks for tuning in!!

[@Bowl_sessions]

love your tutorials Jon

[@JonBishopSkate]

Many thanks for tuning in dude!

[@johnh7447]

Great tutorial Jon, many thanks. The slow mo at the end really helped as I'm always struggling with my upper body position. The slow mo shows the 'wind up' of your upper body. More slow mo would be great!

Nice dude 🤜. Great tips

[@PushByPush]

Great Video Jon 🤙 Frontside tricks are my next progression. The fakie 5-0 stall is a great way to start. Keep Pushing 🛹

[@bonadio60]

Great video! This is my next trick towards the 5-0. This video was from 2-2021 I hope you got the 5-0. If yes, I cant wait for that. Thanks

[@JonBishopSkate]

Been wrestling with these myself I can do them now but only small ramps but good work on the five mate there are a scary trick

[@Bowwylad]

really useful thanks man!"

Got it to 5.0 every time but tail is nearly always touching. Coming in is fine like this. But Can’t seem to get that smooth pivot only on trucks. When I do I don’t feel in the right place to drop in. Tips?

[@JonBishopSkate]

Hey dude, sounds ace, yeah, I found that the balance point for me was having the body more forward into the pivot than I thought, combined with the front knee being more bent than a thought? You could experiment with finding the balance point by setting up on the tail 5/0 and then leaning forward until balanced? For me it was natural to lean back, so it was a case of developing the counter intuitive aspect of doing the opposite? That is purely subjective, I’d imagine some guys would find they need to lean back more as leaning forward is more natural??? Let me know how you get on, if you have any clips feel free to DM me on Instagram @jonbishopskate

[@richardharmon523]

Cheers dude.

Hi Jon, just for info you are quoted in this Spanish vid on senior skaters kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmfanKp9mrGgrJI It says you are 50 y/o, thought you were younger ! Nice one man, I am working right now on the fakie fs pivot stall, quite similar

[@JonBishopSkate]

Ha, thanks dude, yeah 46 years old so not quite there yet, many thanks for checking in. I hope you are well !!

[@danielsenovillahernandez9302]

@@JonBishopSkate Still a long track to the 50's label, enjoy it, you are honestly ripping it :) Fine here, skating much more in the micro than in the bowl, getting a bit afraid of heights. Went surfing last week after two months (no possible during the lock down), oh man it was hard with the water freezing and poor physical condition. Hopefully 2021 will offer more skating and surfing session. Best wishes !

[@JonBishopSkate]

@@danielsenovillahernandez9302 yeah, I have a bit of surfers ear, from years of surfing, so it has to be good to go out in the uk in the winter lol! I wear plugs, but if any water gets in it can be not so great!! Can’t wait for the warm water action !!

[@danielsenovillahernandez9302]

@@JonBishopSkate yep, had surf ears surgery (both) around 10 years ago. Not nice stuff for sure. Gonna check the new vid you'd posted :)
