how to shuvit out of a tail slide?

[SoujiroSeta(Qc)]

I'm having a really hard time to just front/back shuv out of a tail slide. I really try to make my shuvit input clean but my board always flips and I never land it. (I play in full manual mode). Am I the only one? What am I doing wrong?

instead of flickin with the other stick up, you have to flick to the side, (like you do with a kick or heelflip)

lets say you do a bs tail (goofy) so you have your left stick on the right (3oclock) then to do the shuvit out you move the left stick either to the up or down position (12 or 6) and the right stick you flick to the left (9)

so it is basically a shuvit tiltet 90°

all tricks you want to do out of a tail or noseslide you have to tilt your control input 90°

for examle if you want do do a kickflip out you flick the right stick up (heelflip down)

Feustel's explanation is rigth, but a bit incomplete as you can also rotate into tailslides and then the clean flipless front foot movement is acutally upwards.

The best approach for me to get clean shuvits or bigspins out of all slides/grinds:

- First always find the clean flipless ollie out direction. This one is normally the opposite direction of the input you are holding a grind/silde (for example: goofy bs crooks - about 200 degrees, means down/slightly left)
- Then simply add the rotation for the shuvit or bigspin + trigger input on the grind/slide foot before popping out
- If you mess up getting back into flipping move back to step one

Works also for board- and lipslides, but the input then has to be a bit quicker as you have to release the flip foot before the shuv movement starts.

That makes sense, thanks for the tip! I'l go try it out right now :)

You're welcome and good luck learning it. Took me also some evenings figuring it out, but when you got it once in your fingers it's easy transferable to other tricks ;)
