Been working on fakies all summer long I ride both cassette and freecoaster but finding more success on my freecoaster doing half cabs to get out of 180s I’m old and dumb and struggle for some reason just spinning the bike around.
37yrs old.
1.5 years into bmx is this any good? Working on fakies

Twist your body !! Whip yourself fast with the turn ! But shit I’m like 40now idk if my body will even snap quick like when I was 17-18 plus if I fall the time down and recovery ❤️🩹 it’s not worth it for me lol 😂
I would practice actually learning to pedal back in fakie on a cassette or roll back on a freecoaster. What youre doing is good practice but not really practical to doing a 180 and landing it
Find a slight incline and fakie downhill. Freecoasters are good for dialing in your balance. I like cassette for more techy half/full cab stuff because of pedal pressure.
Find an easy slope instead of doing it on flat.
More importantly- don’t worry about it, just have fun.
🤘 FUCK YEAH! Keep on… keeping on
Is it good no. But you have potential I would definitely work on practicing fakies out of a 180 vs this
