I recommend trying this on vert, but it is possible to do on mini-ramp. This is not exactly a beginner trick tip so you should have some good experience on ramps. For example, backside airs, back side indys, pop shovits (on flat) and big spins (on flat and transitions). Here we go.... 1. Drop in with your back foot set up for a high pop shovit. 2. As ...
