How to 180 a BMX

Next video https://youtu.be/ebVJFMzdveM In today's bmx tutorial, we'll learn how to do a 180. To do a 180, you’ll need to be really comfortable with bunny hops already. First get going a comfortable speed and carve in the direction you want to spin. As soon as you begin this carve, pull up into your bunny hop as your look over your shoulder. Continue bunny hopping as you normally do, and with a lot of practice you’ll be facing the other direction. Now the looking over your shoulder part is pretty important if not crucial. You can’t just turn your head a little or glance off to the side. A lot of beginners can’t commit to this part, so they rely on their legs to kick the back end of the bike out. This doesn’t work. You need to bring the bike around using the handlebars, or you’ll just spin 90 degrees. Your eyes will basically be looking directly at your rear wheel. Once you can get all the way around, you’ll need to turn your bars in the opposite direction that you were carving. Look closely, and you’ll see that by doing this you can use your spinning momentum to get going forwards again. This part is actually much easier than the 180 itself, but it’s still a good idea to practice pushing off a wall or rolling down a hill first so you’re prepared. With some practice, you can roll backwards for a little bit before you spin back around. This is called riding fakie, and it’s really fun once you get the hang of it. Unless you have a freecoaster hub, you’ll need to crank backwards while riding fakie. Balancing is going to be the opposite as when you’re going forwards, so it’ll take some time to wrap your head around fakies. Now that you can 180, you can do it off stuff, over stuff, and even on jumps. In the next video, we’ll learn how to finish the job and do a full 360. Thanks for riding with me today, and I’ll see you next time.

Hey Seth I know this is an old video but I need some help , I am 95 % of the way to doing a 180 I am looking behind me when I carve and I'm hopping really high , I can fakie well also. Any advise on getting the rest of the way there ? +Seth's Bike Hacks

Great video Seth! Can you provide a little bit of info on the mechanics when you spin (180) out of a fakie? What exactly are you doing when you get the front wheel up and doing a 180 on your rear wheel? Thanks again for the awesome videos.

I think 180's are so much better than 360's. They can be combined with so much more tricks and even look better altough are easier to do, for example you can bunny hop on top of a staircase and 180 of it; looping out with a fakie, it just looks so much better than a 360, hoping to learn that with my 24" bmx, little weird, but it handles just like a 20" bmx !

You should learn longer and better fakie , this doesn't look quite good.

Shared your vids with everyone I ride with, I love your vids

Why'd you bitch crank?
-
where's the 360 tutorial?
-
actually, that's not a typical 180 . this is an opposite one
-
How much tires do you change a month just becouse they poped while you were doing these tricks?
-
How tall are you and what's the rise on your bars?
-
What type of bike do you recommend me for starting bunny hops, manuals, wheelies, etc? A 26" hardtail with a fox suspension? Or one smaller?
Thanks -
Love your videos but just a little tip the audio could he turned down. At some points when the music climaxes it makes your voice a little harder to hear. A nice background music while your voice is over the music. :D keep up the good work
