How do it
Bunny hop 180 is a jump with a 180 turn. A simple trick that's great for riders who are just starting out. Jump and turn your head, body and bike 180 degrees towards your rear leg, and ride backwards (fakie) on landing by spinning the pedals in reverse — and finally exit the fakie with a u-turn. If your front leg is your right leg, then you should be turning 180 degrees to your left, no exceptions! To learn this trick you should find level or slightly tilted ground.
1.
Begin riding, then slightly turn the front wheel in the direction of the future rotation (i.e. towards your back leg) and simultaneously begin executing a bunny hop. Have your arms, legs and body turn the bike 180 degrees and continue to look in the direction of rotation, right up until you land.
2.
Land and begin spinning the pedals in reverse, to ride fakie.
3.
Turn the front wheel towards your back leg once more, raise the handlebars and simultaneously push down on the pedals to exit the fakie.
