What this video teaches

A fast, minimal-fluff breakdown of the backside bluntslide covering the frontside-180-style foot setup, finding the tail pocket against the truck, and using the shoulder to lead the turnout.

Key tips

  • Set your feet up like you're going into a frontside 180
  • Roll at an angle toward the ledge, not straight on
  • After the ollie, find the pocket between the tail and the back truck so the wheels land right on top of the ledge
  • Press all your weight into the tail like you're trying to push it straight down to the ground
  • Keep your weight centered over the back foot through the hold
  • Hold the slide the same way you'd hold a tailslide dismount
  • Turn your leading shoulder toward your landing direction and let it guide the rest of your body out
