How to Pop Shove It

The " Pop Shove It" is one of the easiest tricks involved with skateboarding, you don't even need to know how to ollie in order to learn this trick. Your back foot does most of the trick, your front foot really isn't needed. It is actually easier to do this trick standing still than opposed to rolling, but rolling just looks a lot better.

Here's how to do it: Keep your feet set up as if you were about to ollie, and keep your weight centered. Quickly, push HARD down on your back foot behind you ( so the board turns 180) and drag you front foot towards the nose. Then, wait until it turns a complete 180 and land on the trucks. Many people learn this trick very quickly, but it takes a while for others. When you master this trick, you can also learn different types of shove its ( nollies, and frontside shove its). This trick gets sort of boring, but it's essential because you can use it in so many tricks, especially if you're a technical skater.

The next trick to learn after the pop shove it, is the kickflip, varial kickflip, or the 360 pop shove it.
