Performing a 180 snowboard trick requires a good amount of balance, a bit of terrain awareness, and proper positioning. One of the most enjoyable tricks in snowboarding, is the backside 180. The backside refers to the area between your head and the board's heel. Your head should face down when performing this trick. The trick is then performed by executing a switch and spinning down the mountain. This can be done by performing small jumps on flat ground or spinning.
It is the hardest trick to master. You must be able to cut the switch. This is the first step to performing a 180 snowboard trick. It is important to practice switch riding regularly. Practice landing the switch. This way, you will get used to landing the switch and spinning down the mountain.
Next, you will need to practice doing 180 turns on a slope. You will need to practice on a gentle slope to get used to spinning in a controlled manner. You'll also need to be capable of jumping over jumps. Once you're comfortable doing this, you can try the trick on your frontside. This trick is easier than the one on the backside.
After you have learned the frontside, you may move to the switch. First, you will use a standard switch. Then you'll switch to the side. This trick is much easier to do on the toe edge. The toe border is where the toes meet the board. This can be practiced on a small jump to learn how to spin. You should be able do it on your toe edge if you can do it on your heel edge.
Once you are comfortable with the switch, you may attempt a frontside 360. To begin, you should do a regular frontside takeoff. This will allow you to spin on the edge of your toe without spinning up. Another option is to do a frontside 360 off a jump. After some practice, you should feel comfortable doing this. If you are able to balance well, the frontside 180 will be much easier. It is also best to start with small jumps so that you can practice spinning in a controlled manner. Then you can move on to larger jumps.
You should be able spin in a circle while practicing a switch before jumping. Then, you should ride the switch until your speed allows you to land on a normal landing. You can do a 180-degree turn with your arms if you're unable to spin in a circle. This is also called the "tenen". Before you can switch, you will need to do the tenen several times. The tenen will help you to avoid catching your toe edge during the trick.
