Bs shove-it trick tip

The shove-it (or varial) is one of the oldest skateboard tricks. It's ideal for beginners, because you don't need the ollie. However, the shove-it can be a good basis for more advanced tricks such as the varial kickflip.

1. 1

   Position your feet like the image below. Lift up the heel of your back foot and let your toes lean over the edge.
   
   




2. 2

   Crouch down a little and get ready to jump.
   
   




3. 3

   Shove the board 180 degrees over the ground using mostly your back foot. Your front foot should guide the board.
   
   Jump a little while doing this. No need to go high, the board should sweep over the ground.
   
   
   
   
   




4. 4

   Catch the board again with both your feet.
   
   

Tips

• 

  Try to get exactly 180 degrees or a little more. You can still stop the rotation by catching the board.

• 

  A short powerful shove is more easy to control than a long wide one.

• 

  Don't practise stationary, the shove-it feels really different while riding.

• 

  The faster you go, the more you'll have to push the board forwards.
