The
180
A cool way to
change direction. You do this by Ollie-ing and using your body weight to
spin the scooter around in the air.
This is
harder than it sounds you might start with 1/4 turns at first then work
up to the real 180.
1) Bend
your legs into the Ollie position and jump as high as you can.
2) A
soon as you take off, turn your shoulders and upper body to the right.
Hold on tight to the handlebars and the scooter will turn and spin with
you in the air.
3) As
you land relax your body like a normal Ollie.
Bunny
hop
Like a bike rider hopping to keep their balance while moving forward.
1)
Slide both feet to the rear of the scooter, with your right foot over
the brake and weight over the rear wheel.
2) Pull
up on the handle bar to a 45 degree angle and hop the scooter by jumping
and landing on the rear wheel.
Once
you have this mastered try going backwards!

Tail Twitch
This one looks good, similar
to an Ollie but real slick. You do this by starting to Ollie then
pushing the tail of the scooter out to 45 degrees and back.
The key to sticking
this is quick footwork, keeping your back foot against the brake so the
deck stays with you.
1) Practice on an
imaginary object to jump over.
2) Get up to a good
speed.
3) As you get close to
your target push back your rear foot so that it is at the back of the
deck and squashed over the brake.
4) Ollie and bring the
leg that is on the brake forward and to the right. Your momentum will
shoot the deck right too.
5) As you return to the
ground slide your foot back to position with the deck and your feet
facing forward.
