How to Bs 50-50 Grind EVERY TRY!

What this video teaches

Skate Hacks covers the backside 50-50, focusing on the blind-side challenge and how a slight shifty motion during the ollie solves it. Key advice: learn backside boardslide first to get used to going at ledges blind, look forward in the direction of travel (not back toward the ledge) to reduce the disorientation, and build confidence on small curbs before bigger obstacles.

Key tips

• 1Look forward in the direction you are traveling, not back toward the ledge, to reduce the blind-side feeling on backside 50-50s
• 2Apply a very slight shifty during the ollie to get both trucks on the coping, similar to the motion in a backside 180 but much smaller
• 3Practice ollieing up and standing on top of the curb backside before attempting the grind, building confidence with your stance first
• 4Get close to the ledge, you can approach much closer than it feels without hitting it, working close reduces the error window
• 5Learn backside boardslide before backside 50-50 to get comfortable with the blind approach direction
