1. Approach the wall as you would
for a low backside air
2. As you reach the top, unweight
your front foot and plant it on the
top. At the same time grab your
board with your left hand (vice-
versa if you're a goofy foot ska-
tor).
3. Pull up with your left hand, and
push up with your back foot (be
sure to hold your board seo-
urely).
4. After you reach your peak, guide
the nose around and point it
downward for re-entry.
5. After your board is pointing
downward, start to fall back into
the pool. Set your board under-
neath you with your left hand still
guiding it.
6. Release your board and take
your front foot off the top and
plant it on your board.
7. Compress and pump down the
transition
"As you leam this trick, try to boost
your board even higher above
your head
Till next time,
Steve
