A G-shape turn performed while balancing on the front truck.
How do it
For this trick you ride in balance, trying to spell out the letter G (hence the name). The key word here is ‘try’ — keep it loose, ride a half circle, full circle or more, end with a pivot, shove-it or anything you can come up with.
1.
Feet are in nose manual position. Increasing the angle of your front foot is also an option, experiment.
2.
Begin to ride in an arc, while simultaneously lifting your rear wheels. Turn your frame along with the direction of motion.
3.
Control the trajectory with your body.
4.
Execute a pivot at the end of the movement.
