Fakie Toe Press 360 Spin
Weight placement, edges, rotation and carving to build a spin in toe press.
In this tutorial I share my current exploration of how to perform a spin from the fakie toe press position.
It is not a move I've mastered 100%; it is something I keep researching, practicing and discovering session after session. After a conversation with Felipe Tamashiro (@swoosh_inline), a question came up: what is the difference between a traditional toe spin and this spin while keeping the legs together in a toe press position?
In the video we look at weight placement, the use of edges, torso rotation, the impulse from carving, and a series of progressive drills that can help you build this move step by step.
More than learning a trick, the intention is to understand the movement and develop new tools for your own skating style.
