Counter rotation is the key technique in doing a shifty.
You twist your skis one way and the upper body the other.
When I tail drag over a roller I like to do it for as long as possible.
With that I mean I ideally want to drag up and down the top of the roller.
But this is not the only way to to it.
Vinnie here he pops over the top of the roller.
Does a big old shifty mid flight and just waits for the landing.
before you kick off doing some ollie 180s or tail drag 180s start practising your normal ollies.
Wind up some rotation as your ride forwards.
It really is just a mix between a normal 180 and and ollie.
Swing those arms a bit and pull them in to speed up the rotation.
Once you feel confident you’re able to go ollie 180 over a sweet roller like there.
I love to drag both up and down the top of the roller before doing the late ish 180.
He makes this trick look much cooler than the way I do it so try both.
Once you got the under control it will be rather easy to Sw ollie 180 or tail drag.
you could start sitting down on the ground and try pushing your hand down.
you might start trying this on a roller that goes from flat to rather steep.
When you do an ollie you pop hard not up like normal but forwards.
You must be a little patient and lean forwards and allow your self to bend the skis.
Let the flex of the ski pop you up in the air.
To do a shifty nollie you will have to put in some serious power to do this with style.
Nollie and push the noses off to the side.
Vinnie here says he wants to push of the noses edge so it sort of pushes him forwards.
Doing it this way is very cool but high risk.
As with many tricks high risk high reward.
Have fun adding a bit more style to your tricks!
