How to

Step by step
  1. A late is a way of spinning where your upper body turns first and the board comes around late.

    Done on a backside 180 it's called a "late B1": a backside 180 that starts turning later than usual. First, you need a stable 180 to build on.

  2. Ride slowly straight down a gentle slope, bend both knees lightly, and center your weight on the board.

  3. As you pop, send only your upper body into the spin first, and leave the board and your lower body pointing straight down your line instead of turning them right away.

  4. In the air, bring the lagging board and lower body around to catch up with your upper body.

  5. Once you've come around 180, land on both feet together and bend your knees to absorb the impact.

    On a backside 180 you land switch.

Tips

The gap between upper body first and board later is what makes a late look good. If you turn your upper body and board together, it looks like an ordinary spin.

COMMON MISTAKE

It looks like an ordinary 180 → you turn your upper body and board together at the pop. Send only your upper body first and leave the board pointing down your line as you pop.
