I love Pop Shuvits or should I say Shubits since Japanese people can’t say v’s? I get all excited when I see one in a video. I do backsides (I think - I kick the board behind me), so should I learn frontsides because they’re cooler, or should I practice the backsides more so that I can beat my record of one - ever?

I can really only land BS shuvs, but FS look so much cooler (popped ones that is)

Gamblor if you are flicking behind you you are prob doing FS shuvs. Is the board doing the motion of a FS 180 if your body went with it?

Backside Shuvs cause that’s the only way Andy can do them too. I’m with ya Gamblor, they’re hard man.
But then again I suck at any trick where the board has to leave my feet. My inner snowboarder just says “Woh, that’s not right man”

I like the last response to the pole, kinda hoping it stays at 0 smirk


FS Shuv its are a bit cooler looking though
