Mobe, or Mobius, is a heelside backroll with a frontside 360 handle pass. It builds from roll-to-revert mechanics and adds a compact handle pass near the end of the invert.

Take the jump up first, keep hands close, complete the roll shape, then pass the handle in the small of the back with line tension still loaded.

Build from backrolls, roll to revert, frontside 360 handle-pass drills, and strong landing awareness. Rushing the pass usually breaks the axis.
