spin your head around really hard, lean forward, straighten your arms and tuck the back when you come around 180 degrees to level you, and swing around with your feet too.

I have always dreamed of doing one, but I don't have the courage, I feel that when I hit the lip and start turning im going to go off the side and crash. I just want to know if you start turning on the lip of once your in the air?

Ok. so ive been practicing flat threes and ive landed them a few times....BUT, the majority of my attepmts fail because my back end hits the ground just before i've fully rotated. I just need to know some tips to keep my back end up. Ive tried and tried but it wont stay up!

it just takes practise.... i was on the same page as you, but after just doing it over and over youll get it.

If you wanna speed up the process practise them off of curbs/ledges, and do them into banks. It helped me.

Try 360 pivots first
i can get to about 270 now then pivot the rest of the way
