Start the move rolling forward with a good amount of speed. ben right down as if going for a big ollie. make sure the ball of your rear foot is on the toe side of the tail. this is important

A couple more important things, First, (you can see that in the pictures)addition to snapping the tail down, the rear foot also smacks the tail sideways (scooping the tail with your back foot). This is what causes the board to turn a 180 in the air. Second, your front foot -- get it out of the way by lifting it up. If you want to do these high, this is important. if you want ot so small ones dont lift your front foot quite as high. watching the board, and his feet are positioned to come back down and make contact

land over the trucks when landing, which means it is solid and will not break the board.

i love pop shuvits i throw them high

ight dude thats not how you do it unless you wanna get hurt its easy like a regular pop i pop mine and catch them most of the time or i slide and the way i taught my self to bs pop is just dont pop it down or any thing just spin it on the ground bs and land it easy

Wouldnt that be a shov it then Sk8eR4EvEr? Awsome tips Mislead_user, thanks for the help...i just got mine down 2 days ago and can do them 1:4 times usally

when I do my shuvits they fly out to my side, what am I doing wrong?

Are you doing pop shuvits or just normal shuvits??
If your doing a pop shuvit, just remember to pop before you spin the board, if your doing a normal shuv-it, then try to push the board with your front foot aswell as your back foot (just so you get the full rotation), also remember to jump as you spin the board so your ready for the landing ;)

pop shove its are the best! lots of pop man! a great tip to get them to look good is to jump higher and pop a little bit less. that way you can spot your landing and smack it down on them bolts!

thanks

i can get them now :)

the one in the pictures is WEIRD

i have touble doing them on the move i can do them in fakie on the move.

same here, but i cant do them fakie on the move, any help:icon_ihea

pop shove its good basic trick to throw down and they feel good

i still ahve a little toruble with the pop shuvit too. i can beside the board, and just play with it, and pop it around 180 and 360 and cath it with my foot again. but i cant seem to do it while im actually onthe board....

good guide

how long did it take you to learn this trick
________________________________
Landed my first today

Nice, I'm trying to learn them, so thanks.

omg... i alway's land my pop shuvit's with 1 foot why?!?

Good guide man...but with the back foots positioning you should have the ball of your foot in the MIDDLE of the tail.So that it keeps the board leveled out and it doesn't flip.

hey can you help me? I can sometimes land pop shuvs stationary but my feet are always right next to each other which causes the board to slip out from under me. Any tips?

I used to hav the same problem my only advice is to keep your eyes on the board and keep reminding yourself to open out your legs so that they are over the bolts if you keep remining yourself eventually it will become second nature

thanks man ive almost got these down!

rep +1

I can land thse but my feet are really close together and I slip out mosyt ofn the time! vWhat am I doing wrong?

how do I get my board to not flip when I do these?

im still trying to pack mine right down, i am also learning frontside shuvs , any trick tips going up on them?

You forgot the problem that all the skaters I know have had:

You have to jump towards your chest a bit, or the boar flies out. Like towards your chest, when your shoulders are parallel with the board.

You should add it.

It is not possible to jump towards your chest. It is attached to you.

I love that trick. Simple, looks nice. It's pretty fun, too. Just got them today.

I love to take em high

thanks:) i've been working on my pop shuvits. haven't quite got them down yet.

isnt that a front side pop shuvit looking at the photos o.o

I can do shuv its xd but not a pop shuv it i think I ll try a couple tomorrow

i can do standing pop shovits easy btu i am still having a ton of trouble with rolling ones and olny landed it like 3 times (out of a lot of tries). is there something i can focus on when rolling to get it down better

the trick to popshuvits for me was starting small. at first, i just smacked the tail as hard as possible, but this makes it hard to catch when ur learning. experiment until you find the sweet spot that pops it a perfect 180 (not too little or too much).

just practice small pops, like barely higher than shuvits. once ur comfortable landing them moving then its just a matter of taking it higher. landing them moving try not to rotate your body above the board, catching them in the air (rather than stomping on them) gives you more time to adjust.

other than that, the hardest part is figuring out the perfect combination of "shove" and timing the land. experiment with back foot placement and power. it takes a lot of trial-and-error, but once u learn em, you never forget them, because they become so fundamental to other tricks.

frontside shuvs are a lot harder because you can hardly see what's going on, so it's mostly by feel. just make sure to keep your weight on your back foot for the whole trick (the front foot does nothing until the catch). find a sweet spot on the tail that gives you the 180 f/s pop and jump backwards with it.

why the f**k are u telling us a trick tip

Hectic thread man

Really helped,


Respect

yea i got the same problem i get the perfect spin and i always land with one foot(front foot) any tips to help me stay over my board better if so thank you..
thanxx again

For a good pop shuvit these tips helped...

Putting my half of my back foot on the tail getting ready to scoop and my front foot the middle of the board with a little pointiness

Scoop your back foot oppisite of your facing while using your front foot to 'push' the board foward causing it to spin.

while in the air jump and relocate you feet and jump ahead and land on the bolts. For this trick your going to need a good sense of where the board is going to land (whitch should be about a foot or less from your starting position)

If its not spinning or flying in the air, put less pop and more scoop while scissor kicking with your front foot.

Also go on Youtube. Its magic

Kk thanx dude ill try that and c how it gose down thanx again

thanks again!!!:)kk i have landed both frontside and backside pop shuvs but i have a little problem when i land;my feet are usally close together?? anyone got advice for keeping them more over the bolts
if so a big thanx in advanced..

if your not landing on the bolts then your not really commiting as saying try as hard as you can to land bolts what helps me is catching the pop shuv it with my frontfoot then back. Hope that helps

nice trick tip, more detail than most of the videos out there.

when i try to pop shove it, my board flips as well so it is more like a varial kickflip, what am i doing wrong?

Mine keeps going in frlont me so i can only get one foot on. Should i lean forward more or do i need to sorta hop forward?

Haha mine's the opposite problem, it goes behind me!

leap with the board. You cant expect it to stay in one place! Picture where th boards gonna be, and just stand on your board, and leap towards that imaginary spot. get used to that, then add the back foot motion to it. you should be landing it in no time!

i love pop shove its more than ollies.

nice.

For some reason I can't land pop shove its, my front foot can catch it but my back foot lands under or off the board. I don't think it's a commitment issue, any tips?

hey all - that is trying to get pop shuvits down - ... i skate a 8.5 board, size 11 shoe (DVS cupsole), and im 6 ft. tall. ..

and ive tried all foot positions and scenarios - and the best one is having your toe pointed slightly towards the nose (about middle of board or closer to you back foot as much as possible), and your back foot like everyone says gently hanging off and wrapping around the tail - as if getting ready to tre-flip.

This foot placement worked the best for me. The first time I landed it after 300 tries - I shot out like they say, or "Mr. Wilson' it... that hurt... but i kept trying and learned to shift the weight from back foot when poping to shifting weight to front foot when landing - that helped me not shoot out and land on my ass again.

Well after i landed it the second time i walked home sore. But im going to keep trying to perfect it. and keep posting here honestly.

I hope others can post honestly here too. this is a hard trick - i dont know why some people say its the easiest - i can kickflip and fakie kickflip and this pop shov it has me stumped a little.
