Hi, I'm the freestyler Oli Hayes and I'm going to show you the shoulder roll. Check it out. Basically you want to keep the ball in the same position while spinning yourself around in a 360 degree angle, rolling the ball from shoulder to shoulder.

So, you can do it from kick-ups or you can start just from your hands, and then you can do it from foot-start. It's really simple, you just need to spin around, and try and spin on one foot so you can go around quicker. But that's the shoulder spin.
