How to Backside Big Spin


Backside Big Spin as explained by Josh Hawkins
1. Basically, the backside or b/s big spin is a backside 360 pop shove-it with a 180 body varial, so you turn backside while the board rotates underneath you. Another way to think about it is a pop shove-it with a simultaneous backside 180.
2. Set your back foot on the 'pocket' of the tail which means your back foot and its toes are going to scoop the board. Your front foot should be past the middle near the front bolts.
3. Wind up/rotate your shoulders before you pop the board. Your back foot needs to scoop/drag the board back around.
4. The board will not flip if you keep your front foot stable and hoovering over the board.
5. Turn a backside 180.
6. There are lots of variations of this trick - you can change the style up by catching it early and using your back foot to drag the board for the final 90 degrees of rotation.
