Fakie Manuels

[Devin Catron]

I'm trying to learn fakie manuels but um not having any luck...so does anybody have any tip or tutorals?

 

[blindscooterboy]

i just pretend its a normal manual, same feet position and everything, whatever you do, dont use the brake

 

[Joe Riley]

i tried using the brake. its the opposite. you go UP instead of down. fakie manuals are soooo hard.

 

[Jordan Jasa]

sometimes i put my feet in a ski stance while doing them, try that. otherwise its just all practice basically.

 

[Aaron]

For me, there isn't any particular way to do it.
My foot over the brake does help, but fakie is pretty much my normal way of riding, and i can control my foot pretty well.
Just 180 and lean back, hahaha

 

[Steezeman]

Yeah, you gotta lean back mad far. It seems like you'll be leaning back way too far haha. And I do it totally brakeless, both feet on the deck.

 

[Devin Catron]

I tried both feet in the middle..I died...I have been trying it over the break..but I'll try ski to see how that works

 

[Basil]

Don't tap the break to hard!
If you tap it to hard you fell back!
Practise it with a helmet!

 

[Jordan Jasa]

oh yeah, i was talking about doing them while already in fakie. for 180 fakie mannys i have my feet like they usually are, goofy + foot over the brake, but move them up a bit. i 180 and just try to hold my body position.

 

[Michael Martinez]

ima try fakie mannys soon tthey so hard to keep up for me

 

[jerad]

normally if u act like your doing a long slider and just lean back slightly more u end up with great balance. this helped me a lot

 

[jake-m]

ive tryed fakie mannys so dam hard lol

 

[Billie Rainbow]

ski is the easiest way and leaning back IMO but i done it on a bike first so yeah
trust me you gotta spend time
but i got over it and done fakie nose manny instead

 

[danfrench]

I can put my foot over the break (for 180s into and straight fakie mans) and still balance them. They feel better since you're in a more normal stance but you've got to be super careful with brake contact. Just practice and get used to jumping back.

Yeah, you gotta lean back mad far. It seems like you'll be leaning back way too far haha. And I do it totally brakeless, both feet on the deck.
