A '''kickturn''' is where you balance on your rear wheels,and spin your board and body around together. '''Kickturns''' can go in either direction ([[Frontside|frontside]] or [[Backside|backside]]), and be at any degree (90, 180, 360 for a full spin all the way around). Freestylers use '''kickturns''' all the time, especially if their [[Trucks|trucks]] are tight, because carving a turn isn't much of an option with tight trucks.

A kickturn is where you balance on your rear wheels,and spin your board and body around together. Kickturns can go in either direction (frontside or backside), and be at any degree (90, 180, 360 for a full spin all the way around). Freestylers use kickturns all the time, especially if their trucks are tight, because carving a turn isn't much of an option with tight trucks.
