| Have your middle finger right in the dip and have your index finger just straight along the width of the board at the bolts. Pop with your middle finger towards you and kind of inward and scoop round quite hard with your index finger and try and get a 360 motion. Practice and see what works for you |

| This is the positioning that I use, or something like this  If you have a wider deck with narrower trucks/wheels, you can move your front finger closer on the deck and not hang it out so much. If the rotation is your problem, move the back finger lower down towards the heel edge. Another way to pop is to curl the back finger slightly and move it close to the inside of the concave. The important thing is when you pop, you also have to kick a lot with the back finger to push the board around. Some pro should make a video.  |
