BS body variel

It sounds a lot easier than it is. I'm just putting together a video and was wondering how good of a trick it really is. I know its harder than a fs 180 and shuvits... right?

HighRida, I dont think its all that great of a trick... and ya i probably is harder than fs shuvs....

one of the stupidest things I saw was colin wright do a wrapped bs body varial in on of jack blogetts videos Rolling Eyes

body varial on the flats is kinda gay....

I love the w2w ones that you grab say method that will turn into a switch indy after your bv.

but on the flats you got to have some 'shuviting' going on at the same time, ie big spins or just a shuvit in one direction and the bv the other way. Those are sweet Birthday

I tried one today and they are tough, can anybody do them? Tips? You probably have to jump pretty high to bs 180+pass the handle. I bet it would be a dope trick when executed with a lil pop

Raven, u don't need to handle pass it, you can land blind, or even do the handle pass after landing... Anyways, you don't need to jump high at all on the bodyvarials, either fs or bs.

to do them think about jumping from your front foot, whereas you jump from your back foot for like an ollie

makes sense, b/c ur fott is near the nose or in the middle, pushing the boardastright into the water instead of popping it up.

when i do fs body varials i like to put my stance way in the front almost as if i was doing a nollie...because i can do nollies...but i dont know if that would be the same for a bs varial

they feel pretty good if you pop it and stomp it. They work best with combos

I think Nekkie is right b/c I tried another today and I didn't pop high, I just turned fast and passed the handle. It felt kind of good.[/i]
