How to 180 barspin, one of the most impressive spine tricks out there. Landing back in a transition fakie can be difficult, especially after spinning the bars. It’s important to make sure you’ve got 180 barspins dialled, and give them plenty of practice from fly-outs before giving this a go.
Tip: Use the left / right arrow keys
01
Even if you are really capable doing 180 barspins out of flat banks or fly-outs, make sure you’re really comfortable doing 180’s over spines before you start thinking about spinning the bars in there.
02
The key with these is being able to land well back in the transition and you can really get this down without throwing the bars around.
03
Once you’re ready, go a little faster than you would for a normal 180.
04
Don’t let the extra speed put you off though, stay relaxed and loose enough to take the backwards landing at speed.
