Land on All Four Wheels

People often say that if you can't complete the full 180 degrees, you should just pivot. But have you ever felt that pivoting is actually more difficult? The commonly taught pivot involves putting all your weight on your front foot and rotating the board the remaining distance, almost like performing a nose manual. The reason this technique can feel frightening is that if your foot slips off the nose, your forward momentum could put a large amount of force on your front foot, potentially twisting your ankle. In fact, there are several types of pivots, and you can simply try an easier method instead of this one.
