Steps: 3
1)Place your back foot on the tail - it's
usually best to have your toes on the center of
the tail so that it is easier to limit how much
pressure you are putting on the tail. Have your
front foot on the front truck bolts to make adjusting
how much pressure you are putting on the front
of the board more easier.
2)Gather
some good speed for this. Press down on your back
foot, this should raise the nose off the ground.
If you feel the nose going down, lean backwards,
if you feel the tail going down, lean forwards.
3)When
you feel you can balance no more lean forwards
to set your nose firmly down. Try to avoid scraping
your tail on the ground too much when practicing
these as it will wear it away making the tail
thin and prone to breaking.
