2. Switch kickturn

Switch kickturns (kickturns on the nose)

Kickturns on the nose, switch kickturns, whatever we want to call it, learning fine control over the nose is vital to a huge number of tricks we’ll be working on in both the Progressing Ramp & Progressing Street Pathways.

Put your foot on your nose. Use techniques you learnt in the beginner course to kick turn on the nose. Review those now if you need to.

You should be able to comfortably rotate a half turn (180 degrees) both ways on the nose whilst rolling forwards, i.e. you will end up rolling backwards.

Next you can look at 180s and 360’s.
