'''Walk the Dog''' is a footwork maneuver where you put front foot in the middle of the board, then step to the nose with you back foot, do a 180 pivot off the nose so the nose is now in back, while keeping your front foot in the center of the board. This is usually done multiple times in a row and should be done with a smooth tempo. Walk the dogs can also be done backwards. | {{Trick | ||
