Backside Tailslide


As explained by Ryan Smith (not me)
1. If you don't know how to do any backside grinds you should probably first learn a B/S 50-50.
2. Some people like to approach with a bit of angle towards the ledge. When you're starting out, it might help to exagerate this angle.
3. Pop an ollie and turn as if you were doing a backside 180.
4. Stick the tail on the ledge and keep your weight on your backfoot to stay locked in as you slide.
5. You can turn back the other way and land regular or you can keep turning backside and land fakie.
6. Roll Away.
