How To Perform A J-Turn

A J-turn is a driving maneuver in which a vehicle in reverse is spun 180 degrees and continues, facing forward, without changing direction of travel. The J-turn is also called a “moonshiner’s turn,” a “reverse 180”, a “Rockford Turn”, a “Rockford Spin”, or simply a “Rockford” popularized by the 1970s TV show The Rockford Files.

He's from the past so he's knows the future. Dirque du Soleil hails from the San Fernando Valley in Southern California where he was raised by hippie acrobats who eventually left him to join a French circus. After his parents left, Dirque survived by appearing in several “off-the-lot” film productions and by giving Hustle lessons at the local discotheque. Even though he was never on Love Boat, he has served as a consultant for many 70s revival television shows over the years.
