How to do a reverse air spin
1. First pick off a wave that will give you some
speed and has a pitching lip or some sort of section to
hit.
2. Then you bottom turn or drive down the line to get your
speed.
3. Find the section that has the best looking lip or section
to throw you in to the air.
(I like to look for on coming sections with a lip throwing
off the foam or come off the bottom off a hollow wave and
hit the lip right out of the bowl).
4. As you hit the lip use it’s power to propel you
in to the air and at the same time try and lift you self
off the wave and in to your rotation. Think of grabbing
your boards nose and rail and lifting them up towards you
as you hit the lip.
5. Look back and lift your legs while you rotate, just as
you would do on a normal reverse.
6. Then try to keep your legs together as you complete your
spin.
7. As you land hold on and engaged your legs so you won’t
slip out or so you can complete your spin in the white water.
8. Practice doing reverses and reverses off the foam to
get the motion right if the waves aren’t big enough.
