180 in a quarter pipe! How to air the quarter!

180's within a quarter pipe are easy and yet hard to perfect. 180's are conducted with a personal style of how you ride. I recomend starting in a large quarter pipe, even if that sounds weird believe me! The reasoning for staring in a large one is for that the wall will always be there to make you feel more comfortable and it avoids casing the coping, and creating a rough scenario that good really hurt.

Steps

1) In order to hit a quarter pipe you will need speed to get up the vertical wall.

2) Spin the same way you have learned to 180 flat in past videos.

3) Keep your eyes straight ahead and act as if you were jumping the quarter pipe like a box jump.

4) You will float along the wall this is where the spin is put in affect.

5) Look over the shoulder you are spinning torwards and twist your body, not much force should be used due to the gravity and will make the 180 fall right in to place.

How to air out the quarter.

Airing the quarter pipe is a little different than staying within in it. More speed will be an eccential to launch you up amd out. This trick will take alot of guts and perfecting the 180 will be key to learning this trick.

Steps

1) Approach the quarter with speed, and lots of it!

2) Hit the quarter straight on and bend your knees at the bottom as you head up (this will increace speed).

3) The coping (rail at the top) will send you air born as your tires ride over it.

4) Begin your 180 by looking over your shoulder again, invert your bike and push it back down to the landing. this trick will happen very fast but it always falls into place.

5) Drop back into the quarter and ride away.
