  1. indy grab, tail grab, shifty, indy with a shifty perhaps if comfortable enough, frontside 180 if you wanna try spinning


  2. First of all, you should try a 50-50 on a wide, short box.

    Then a backside boardslide down a box or rail.

    Indie grabs off small kickers,

    Maybe a pretzel out of a rail, but only if you're confident spinning of a rail and you really must be good at riding switch (fakie) because a) it's hard if you can't b) you look wierd if you land switch and spin back to reg. right away.

    That's why I don't think people should try 180's til they can ride switch well...

    If you don't know any of them just look them up :)

  3. 50-50 on box

    backside boardslides on box

    frontside boardslides on box

    180 on 180 off

    270 on 270 off

  4. Start off by avoiding and rails/boxes.

    First get you're spins down, start with the 360 off a small kicker or 180 if you're comfortable riding switch foot.

    Then go for some simple grabs, hold them as long a you can.

    Try to touch/grab the nose of you're board.

    After you have become familiar with these (it might take a go or two), start to combine the grabs with spins.

    Then if you feel ready, move onto the boxes and first just ride them once or twice to get used to them, unless you have already done this.

    Then do 180's off/onto the box.

    :)
