The 180 Kickflip
 
The 180 Kickflip is a very cool-looking trick. It also has the quality of looking harder than it actually is. The 180 kickflip is basically a shove-it with a kickflip. Although a difficult trick, it is much easier than you would think.

STEP 1: Place your back foot on the corner of the tail that is away from you. This will allow you to scoop the board 180 degrees underneath you easily. Place your front foot off to the side of the board nearest to you, pointing slightly forward.

STEP 2: Kick your back foot down and scoop it behind you with the same motion. At the same time, kick your front foot out and away with the same motion as a kickflip. This should cause the board to spin 180 degrees and flip at the same time if done correctly.

STEP 3: After the board spins around 180 degress and flips once, first of all you should be happy, and then you should worry about trying to land on the son of a gun. When the board is underneath you, drop your feet back onto the board, and hopefully ride away. This trick takes practice, but you can do it!
