Hi op. Check your foot placement. When doing fs 180s, you can change it up a bit. It doesn't have to be exactly where you do ollie's normally. That way you can really swing it around confidently. Put your front foot hanging off your toe edge of the board just a bit. Also put your back foot in the heel pocket of your tail so you can pop in that direction. Refer to this diagram [LINK].
