Shown for a regular-footed rider. Teal ring + arrow = the rider's facing direction; teal band = the tail; a dot is where a hand holds the board - bright yellow for the front hand, amber for the back one, which is the whole difference between a mute and an indy. Board and rider rotate independently - each follows its own component. Drag to orbit.

How it works

A pressure flip taken round a full 360. The roll is levered off the tail rather than flicked with the front foot, so the whole trick - a full board rotation and a full turn of yaw - comes out of back-foot pressure alone.

Step by step

  1. Set the back foot across the tail, toes hanging over the heel edge.
  2. Press down and scoop hard enough for a full 360.
  3. Let the pressure roll the board over as it goes round.
  4. Keep the front foot out of it entirely.
  5. Catch level over the bolts and roll away.
