I'm Joey Fitzpatrick, we’re learning advanced skateboard techniques. This is the fakie Smith.
All right, so once you got the pivot to fakies and the blunt to fakies down, you're going to be coming up the other side of the wall fakie and I don’t want you to freak out because you're going to be backwards doing stuff so here’s a useful trick that a lot of people do, it’s called the fakie Smith.
What you’re going to do is just, you're coming up fakie from a pivot, you're going to turn, you're going to pivot on your front, put all your weight on what is now your front is your back foot and you're going to pivot around like that. And you're going to push your front foot which is now your back foot into the coping and just let your back come up and rest.
And then once you get out, all you're going to do is give it a nudge on the front and you should just come right back into it regular. It’s useful for getting your stances back to regular and good for lines and all that stuff, so, just remember push forward on your front foot, that’s not your back and then just come back in a regular.
After fakie Smiths, you're going to have to link all that stuff together and I'm going to teach you front side 5-0’s.
