i feel there's only so far you can move the bike by trying to use your legs. to whip i initiate the movement by cranking the bars sideways once i'm in the air, maybe leaning just before the lip to help start it off. get into the air and whack your bars sideways, and you will be whipping. you use your legs to bring it back for a landing.

Yeah you can always get it more sideways moto style Smile

just as you leave the lip turn the bars to the other side leaning into it with shoulders

now make your ass stick to the direction the lip sends you

your back end will follow you out

once you have mastered thisturn the bars back in the direction of the lipand tyou have then sucessfully mastered a whip


go on now and enjoy years of bent wheels

Turn bars opposite direction, make upper body follow the bars, twist your legs to kick out the back wheel, turn the bar back and bring the rear wheel around or else your wheel will absorb all the impact. It all happens really fast, practice small and then progressively get more zesty.

for one handed whips you need to tuck the handlebar in your armpit and then take off one hand
