A
vertskateboarding trick. This trick is a
stall. It is the basic stall that must be learnt for the
180 Rock and Roll and the
Disaster.
Once you reach the vert start leaning forward but put your foot on the tail. If you can vert ollie, do so, if you can't then once you reach the coping lean forward while "manualing" (if you did a vert ollie then bend your knees to weigh you down). You should now be in a boardslide position, but shouldn't be sliding. Once you want to stop stalling put your weight on your tail. Once you start rolling down immediately take your foot of the tail and lean forward. You are now riding switch.
