Backside airs are a building block move in skateboarding, but with practice, new obstacles and new terrains, the elements of the backside air become specific to your ability to adapt. And before you can tackle the style element, you need to nail the basics. Here, Nora Vasconcellos breaks down the mechanics of backside airs.

I've watched zillions of trick tip videos but this one is the best at motivating and encouraging to keep trying

[@justskate7124]

[@gatlynman]

[@carlosreira2189]

Amen bro. I agree.

[@elyybarajas]

Dope! Total dream trick. Stoked to learn. Thanks for sharing.

[@joelhixon]

So sick. Nora is an inspiration to us all!

[@davidb819]

She's my new fav skater for sure !!!!

[@kristyy420]

are there people who don't love nora? her style is so good too. im so inspired to actually learn this!

[@carlosreira2189]

I know right? She's my favorite woman skater, and up there with all time greats. She stands up on the lip likes she's surfing, she eats it, eats, eats it again and never gives up. She's so stylish. She can do no wrong in my book. best wishes of skate success to you.

[@elmercyperro]

[@NewWestFilmsTV]

[@packrit9891]

Awesome to meet her at my local park!

[@papershredder2711]

Best female back side air I've seen

[@vonslagle]

Better than most "male" airs too!!

[@gsef4157]

best bs air period, even the goat reynolds knows that she has the best bs air in the business

[@powerswish]

I guess if you don't count legends like Chris Miller or Christian Hosoi. She's got probably the best BS air for a current pro.

[@kamilasmets5629]

Flying Free as a Bird

[@finitevolume]

the music suck

[@FuzzyDancingBear]

finitevolume big time

[@ianturnbow7011]

I wonder why most of the videos I've seen with her she doesn't pronounce her last name in Spanish?

[@diegofernandez1435]

Her family name is Portuguese actually, not spanish & she was born in Michigan dude.

[@ianturnbow7011]

She has pronounced her name as Vasconcellos with the traditional Spanish double-L (y-sound) pronunciation. Just something that I noticed between a few videos. I never looked into her lineage let alone where she was born. Thanks for clearing things up.
