Speed, section, launch and twist are the four steps to pulling this dangerous and extremely high-performance trick.

1. Draw your speed and aim for the lip.
2. Hit it where the wave begins to wrap on a tubey section.
3. As you launch, go for maximum height and try to project out from the lip over the flats.
4. Once airborne, twist your body upside down and, using your forward momentum, throw your legs, board and body over your head in a Iooping motion and land backwards. Landing fiat and centred on your board, finish the move in the whitewater by bringing the nose of your board all the way back around and continue in the direction in which you started.

Alex Mills At 17 and still a schoolie, Millsy is one of the hot new performance riders who have suddenly appeared on the beachies and reefs of Cronulla. Alex names spots like Suckrock and Mystics as his favourite waves due to their launching capabilities. He's into all the new tricks, like gyrolls, inverts and twisted flips.
