Cabalero

This trick, along with the Half Cab, was invented by a professional skateboarder, Steve Cabalero.

A cabalero is a fakie (riding backwards) 360. Your body and board ollie, and then turn all the way around in the air.

Ride fakie. The easier way is to try this backside. Hit your tail, jump high, and swing your body around 360 as fast as you can. Your feet and board follow closely behind you. Try not to let your board flip under your feet.

Land. If you did it right, you'll be riding fakie again. Just remember, you have to spin real fast.

Cabalero Flip

Not neccessarily fakie. (A 360 flip and a 360 body varial the same way.)

Also sometimes known as a Chicago Flip.

1. Place your back foot on the tail of to the edge a little bit *(if you skate regular, your right foot on the top edge part of the tail, switch is the exact opposite).
2. Place your front foot in a kickflip position.
3. Crouch for power*, and snap the tail and kick it hard behind you *(when crouching, if you notice pros they move their front foot back a little bit before they flip it. Its easier that way).
4. Give the board kickflipping action by kicking the board hard, but not to hard as to over-rotate the spin.
5. Try and stay above the board and watch it spin underneath you.
6. When you see the grip tape, aim your feet towards it and land anyway you can - you can perfect that later.
7. at the point where you pop the board, begin a frontside armswing and go for it. You must spin a full 360 and land.
on the board. Yeah I know, it sounds impossible but just stick with it and you'll have it down in about two weeks.
