ah ok i will give that a go next time im on the bike thanks

when you do a tailwhip, you can hop however you want. its all about not being afraid of being hurt. you are going to jump off, kick your bike and move your arms around in a circle. try to stay ahead of your bike with your hands by about 75 degrees. (like if your handlebars are completely sideways thats 90) and make sure to end the circle at your hips.. its "out around and barhump." keep your arms lower than your stomach. look for the pedals and throw your front foot on and then clamp with the rear foot.. if you are doing it on a step up try to stop the rotation of the bike with your foot on the frame or if you can catch it on the pedal go for it,, hope that helped. just landed them with those tips
Im not scared what so ever of getting hurt,I really couldn't care less. Unfourtantly just because you commit doesn't mean you'll land them. I was talking about fly out,your talking about dirt....

its the same thing? except if your doing them onto fly out, you might not catch them and just land straight to the pedals

ok^^ but is table top easy?
Just dialed mine in today. What you need to do is role the outer grip forward like unreving a motorcycle throttle. Do it easy at first to feel how the bike falls through. then go for it. I got my wheel up to my shoulder today and was able to pull a 3 while tabling over the pyramid .

Over in PA we all go YOOoo lol.. Yeah one jam left for the season. Might try and pull some sick shit there. Gotto wait till luch gets served though the pro's are freakin nuts when they ride. I almost had a mid air colision last jam because this pro went hog wild and pulled a upside down tail on a hidden veiw cross over jump. I got nailed with his tire but we didn't crash thank god. 14' up is not a good place for a collisionFacepalm

What's the name for a tabletop but with the front wheel pointing down? Just an invert tabletop?

Anyway, I can't seem to get past the 45° angle limit (bike angle), it just seems that keeping my body straight does not work for more angle, or should I rotate around the bike? Any tips?

Good explination. I roll my grip because I ride with my left forward and it's easy for me.
