A backside flatland 360 pressure spin

[Jorelle]

I think I got all the points covered. Any who, I can do a frontside 360 pressure spin but I'm having troubles initiating the backside. Now I've seen videos on YouTube and one guy does a 180 one without placing his foot on the noise, some other kids video with him angling his front foot on the nose kind of awkwardly. I'm also having a hard time depicting Brendan Hawke's way of doing it. Anywho, tips please?

the trick to it is to kick out the board with ur back foot with just enough force to bring it around for the 180 but b4 u do that u have have to get in a few hard toeside carves to make it easier if i dont makee sense i understand but its kinda hard for me to explIain

So what procedures would I take? Toeside carve, step off with my front then kick?

No no. I can do that the other way. I just want to be able to do what the guy is in the video but with a full 360 rotation, he's only getting 180. I am having problems initiating the backside one.

exactly just do it almost simotanously so u first step off with ur front fooot then almost at the same time u kick out the back foot then while the board is doin its 180 u take 2 steps forward and on the 2 step u jump onto the board

i have never seen anyone do a 360 pressure spin using their heel to spin the board, but i would love to see it
