OK, so you’ve learnt how to hop barspin. If you’re now comfortable catching the bars nice and early then the 180 barspin should come quite easily. Let’s look at how to hop 180 barspin.
Tip: Use the left / right arrow keys
01
You can go into this trick quite slow, but a bit of extra speed will help with the snap out. Something around walking pace should be good to start with.
02
Carve into the spin like you would with a normal 180.
03
As the bike comes around to about ninety degrees, start pushing the bars forward so the bike levels out. You don’t need to worry too much about the 180 after this, the main thing is spinning and catching the bars. Now you’ve got the spin going, it’ll come around on its own.
