HOW TO DO IT

Half Cab → Nose Manual → Backside 180

Switch FS180 enters a main-stance nose manual, then BS180 returns to switch. The sequence is documented but one detailed pressure cue conflicts with its named manual.

Preparation and setting

Half Cab, nose manual and ground BS180 independently. Verify the disputed physical-foot cue before publishing detailed contact timing.

Available preparation and unresolved execution

  1. Enter switch and make a clear, modest Half Cab.
  2. Receive the landing in main stance without excessive drift.
  3. Organize the named nose manual only after its support is confirmed.
  4. Restrain unwanted turning during the supported phase.
  5. Release into BS180 rather than twisting against an engaged edge.
  6. Absorb in switch and return to ordinary travel.

Learning and practice

Practise Half Cab to neutral landing and nose manual to neutral exit. Link each boundary independently before assembling the three phases.

Errors and corrections

Manual keeps turning: reduce entry rotation and settle over support. Abrupt final spin: rehearse the manual release separately. Pressure wording inconsistent: keep the conflict visible.

Observable checks

Entry, manual and exit can be distinguished. Exact disputed load transfer remains an instruction gap, not an implied verified detail.

01

teaching summary — coaching review required

The lesson describes a clear entry pop, an organized pressure shift into the manual, control of unwanted supported rotation and release into the final half-turn.

02

editorial review notes

A detailed foot-pressure cue conflicts with the named manual and requires demonstration review before publication.
