180 to fakie manual or just fakie manual? Pretty much lean back like you're doing a normal manual except you can't use your brake. Just practice a ton, that's the only way, there's not trick to doing them.

Lean back more, it's a lot more stable that way. You'll probably have to lean forward when you're balancing but don't make that your balance point.

I get into them fine, but I can't hold them for longer than like 2 feet. I do them 180 in and I want to hold it before I let myself turn. Tips?

try not throwing ur entire body when u 180 as much, throw ur feet more than ur body, that way u can hold it longer waiting for ur topself to come around,

Yeah, for those ones you have to try really hard to stop your body from turning you around. That's what makes it hard to do them long, sorta like half cab manuals, it makes you keep turning instead of just going straight.

Ok, thanks, both of you. My goal is to get these for more than a 2 foot pad by the weekend, so I can try to take them to a pyramid.

i learned by going up a supppper mellow bank and doing a manny then tailtap them doing a fakie manny. i learned them like that. going up a plastic ramp then before you roll off bring it up. them are the best ways to learn them.
