How to BS 180 Kickflip aka BS Flip | Skateboard Trick Tip | skatedeluxe

What this video teaches

FLAGGED - related but off-topic: SKATEDELUXE demonstrates the backside 180 kickflip (aka BS flip), a variant where the rider's body itself rotates backside 180 along with the kickflip motion, rather than the board spinning alone beneath a stationary body as in a standard varial kickflip. Kept here as a transferable kickflip-plus-180 technique, not as a tutorial for the plain frontside varial kickflip.

Key tips

• 1Build shoulder momentum before popping the tail, winding up to help drive the backside 180 body rotation
• 2Place your back foot slightly more on the inside of the tail and pop it down and behind you to help initiate the backside rotation
• 3Set your front foot slightly behind the bolts in the kickflip angle, same as a standard kickflip position
• 4Perform the kickflip flick with your front foot at the same time your body carries out the backside 180 turn
• 5Pull your legs up in the air to give the board room to complete its flip fully before you come back around
• 6Catch the board over the bolts once your body and the board have both finished rotating, then land and ride away
• 7Remember this variant differs from the plain varial kickflip: your body turns backside 180 with the board rather than staying still while only the board spins
