I have to say that I am good at 360 shoveits on a shortboard/freestyle board, and I think it may be possible to do a good one on longboard too. I know it is possible to do a bigspin, because I've done them.

I do think a 360 shove it (the way I do them: http://www.bobstricktips.com/2005/11/360_shoveit.html ) would be really hard on a no-nose board like a Vanguard. For the 180 shove it, you really just have to get the board to pivot around one truck. But for the 360 you have to get both ends of the board moving pretty good. It would be hard.

Hurray for the no-comply grab.

To the guy on youtube who said there are no parking blocks in the UK, you do them on any curb,

You answered your own question. The tricks are to be done on a SKATEBOARD.

I was thinking 'switch' cross stepping, or backwards cross stepping rather then stepping forward.
