How to 180 on a BMX

BMX · 180

Table of contents

Spinning the bike 180 degrees in the air, usually followed by a fakie.

Step-by-step instructions

Approach. Ride with enough speed. Carve slightly to set up the spin direction.
Hop and spin. Bunny hop and rotate your shoulders and hips 180°. The bike follows.
Land fakie. Land with the bike pointing backward (fakie) and ride out.

Turn your head and shoulders first. Commit to the full 180. Practice on flat, then off a jump.

Either ride out in fakie or do another 180 (half cab) to face forward again.
