Your on your way to having a great skating channel cus this is honestly one of the best explanations I've ever seen for a skate trick - clear, concise and quick. Needed to see this as I'm learning reverts, so thank you so much bro, legendary stuff! 👍🏾

What a perfect tutorial. Quick, lots of info, no intro! Liked
I've always trouble getting it to slide all the way, but the crouch and un-crouch tip might help. Thanks for making such a concise tutorial 🙌
Whoa I've been doing this WITHOUT the counter rotation this entire time. Going to give it a try with the counter rotation and see how it feels. Thanks, no one has ever explained that part to me before

i really liked all the information and easy explanation. very informative cant wait to learn this one now!
Heck yeah man idk how I actually do reverts cause I kinda just spent like 3 hrs at a park in the back where nobody could see me i wanted to learn it cause I'm horrible at riding switch but eventually after a lot of falls and scrapes later finding out I had a contusion on my butt lol but It finally somehow just clicked
This was really helpful, thanks!
Great video, really helpful
Thanks man, im starting to learn how to everything in skate
thx man 👊👍
Awesome thank you!
This is more like a pivot . Still really informative. They way I think of a revert is a quick power slide that does a 180 where all 4 wheels slide instead of just the back 2

I always thought that was the difference between a power slide and a revert? In a revert only 1 set of wheels power slide while the other set simply pivot on their axis. A true pivot is clean, with no scrubbing of the wheels...🤷🏻♂️
This tutorial is great!!
Excellent work great content
Lovely tutorial i hope you get more follower soon - its Qualität like we say in Germany
Dude, you explain things really well. Not sure how I found your channel, but I figured "hey let's watch this guy's tips, his videos are short," and I'm really impressed by how concisely you explain the fundamentals of the revert and in your previous video, the shuv-it. Hope you post some more videos soon!

So how'd it go? Honestly I'm wondering if he even reads the comments before liking them... It's the back foor that does the work on a front side revert. It's the only way it can work. You lighten up the rear and slide it to the front, ending up in fakie... Even in a backside revert you still slide out the back into a 180 towards the front... ending up in fakie...🤷🏻♂️

I didn’t skate at all for 4 months cus my beloved 18yrs old cat passed away suddenly this summer and I was too depressed to do anything, definitely wasn’t in the mindset to skate. I just got back to skating last week and I’m focusing on better ollies for now.

Only other tip I can give you for reverts is try them on asphalt, like a street or decent parking lot. Hard wheels 97a and up tend to slide better on that than sidewalk concrete.

@@BendApparatus Thank you. It was the most difficult thing ever in my life. She was a sibling to me cus we grew up together and I’m an only child. I’m still not fully recovered but I’m starting to go back to my normal life a bit more. Thanks for the tips! I managed to do one the other day. You’re right, the back foot definitely has to push forward for the board to revert, but the front has to push down as well. I find it easier to do it when riding switch, so revert from switch to normal. I’m also practicing to ride switch. It’s so frustrating cus I gotta think about things that came naturally when riding normally haha

@@fvnt0miix953 learning switch is always a good thing. I learned mostly on a low longboard as far as pushing and just having control. Yes the front foot lightens up the rear to allow you to slide the back out. I was the opposite, my reverts standard was great but my switch revert was iffy as heck... eventually they evened out. I'm trying to move on to power slides. Not the longboard type just the little quick ones skaters do to shave off speed. They...are... terrifying...lol
Got one ! Wasn't the full 180 but very close and I rolled away ! Didn't try that hard either for me it knees bent then stand up... Thank you 🙏
thanks
Question from a newbie. Whats the difference between a FS 180 and a revert?
@RegularJason
3 жыл бұрын
Hey! A FS 180 involves a pop (i.e. your board will rotate in the air during the trick, since you hit the tail on the ground). A revert does not involve a pop; your board never leaves the ground, and your wheels slide on the ground during the trick. In this video, I explained a frontside revert (since my board rotated frontside). At 0:51, I threw in a FS 180 for fun, then did a revert.

I happen to skate "regular stance", which means left foot forwards. It sounds like you skate "goofy stance", which means right foot forwards. You can absolutely do this in goofy stance; you should mirror what I'm doing in my tutorial(s).

@@RegularJason so in goofy if I want to revert front side I should put my front foot up to the front of the board? I’ve been able to push away from walls and revert back into goofy, but never figure out how to skate forward and revert.
Honestly I learned a lot from THPS. 😉
does it help to wax my wheels or will that mess up something?
does it make like a sound when it goes or issit supposed to come off the ground someone help pleasee
If im right footed do i use my left foot first or my right

If you can do kickturns then do a 180 kickturn, it's a little easier than reverts but they basically do the same thing but without the slide
How do you powerslide?
What kind of shoes are those?
I have soft wheels and this doesn't work, it stops half way and throws me off the board. My skateboard is very new so it's a little sticky
I just went from 98 du spitfire wheels to dragon wheels, are dragons too sticky to do this trick?
Who else has always called that a power slide? I always thought you had to do a initial trick before you could do the revert like nose stall revert but on its own that’s just a power slide idk I skated back in the 2000’s what do I know
R u going to put weight on the front part
Does this help with powersliding?
@RegularJason
3 жыл бұрын
Yes! It gets you comfortable with turning your shoulders, and having your wheels slide on the ground. To powerslide, you'll use a similar concept, but you'll need to go really fast, initiate the slide by pushing your back wheels 90 degrees, and take more weight off your board with the crouching strategy (See the powerslide tutorial on my channel for more details)

Can u do this with longboard wheels?
@RegularJason

Longboard wheels tend to be softer, which makes reverts much more difficult (or not even possible at normal speeds). It'll be easier to do a pivot; the shoulder rotation tips generally still apply, but press down on your nose more to get your back wheels in the air so they don't slide on the ground.

I can only this do switch, why is that
do i need loose trucks for this? i cant do it

Truck tightness is less relevant for this trick. The two important things are how hard your wheels are (the harder, the easier it is to slide), and how smooth your ground is (smoother ground makes sliding easier)

so technically it’s just turning into a fakie position, right?
So it depends on your wheels.

Yeah, this is definitely easier with hard wheels, which will slide easier. If you have really soft wheels (e.g. filmer or cruiser wheels), you can consider pivoting instead of reverting; the concepts about shoulder rotations still apply, but press on your nose a little more, to get your back wheels off the ground. Have fun skating!
Haha I can’t do this trick because I have soft wheels haha
@RegularJason

One alternative is to put more weight onto your front wheels, to lift the back wheels off the ground (so that you pivot instead of doing a revert). The info about rotating your arms/shoulders should still be relevant for pivoting on two wheels though!
no hate, but this tutorial is missing a very key factor on how your suppose light on your feet when you’re reverting
