Double whips flat.

[joshbeattie]

okay, so, i can do them of the tinyest little ramp, but when it comes to flat, i just cant get my feet on the deck, anyone got any tips?

 

[Nick Griffin <3]

go faster, and jump higher. even if you think you cant just jump higher. whip it harder. this is what im doing with triples right now but thats how i learned doubles.

 

[Devin DePriest]

I've got the same problem, I can do them of the smallest of speed bumps but when I try it flat, I barely get it with one foot. I've been trying to focus on the bars staying right in front of me and keeping my eyes on the deck.

 

[Michael Osterlund]

use a ultra pro deck

 

[Alex Collins.]

Speed is the key with these, I found it easier to learn them going down a steep hill also.

got it :')

yeah what alex said, definitely get speed, it makes it a lot easier.

and you shouldn't make this a habit but try jumping toward your deck.

also suck your knees up so you have more air time. it might help

 

[issac p]

go fast, jump high, suck up your knees, whip hard, stomp your feet back onto the deck.
try them out of a driveway bank, or over a drain cover. that's what helped me.

Don't get discouraged i just got mine and I've been riding for almost a year

Kick the deck with your feet as hard as possible, jump, suck up your knees, use your wrists to spin the deck quicker, stomp it when you see it come back around.

Get the rotation of just spinning with your wrists while standing next to the deck and jump on it when it comes back around. Also make sure your compression isn't super tight.

my compression is hella tight, but the headset still spins just fine so i should be alright?

and yeah i think iv'e got the idea, go faster, spin harder :')
its soaked outside but if i get to ride a dry spot ill give em a go

cheers everyone :')

EDIT: so i went out, and found somewhere dry, and iv'e carried on trying them, and i can only get them one foot, like, i jump as high as i can, and spin as fast as i can, but i just can't do it but i guess if i find a hill or something then ill give it another go

like matt somers said, keep your feet together. taking one foot and throwing so the deck still has a quarter spin until it gets under you is a bad habit. it will lead to a huge let down and it will take you longer to get it right.

It's the same as with every trick. Keep trying till you stick it or die. There's no fancy way to get tricks, it's all practice.

It took me about three months of being thisclose to landing them. Then I landed one, and it took a week of solid stacks before I could land my next one. It'l like learning how to whip again.

Exact same thing with me dude. I was super close for the longest time and then I landed one, and it took me like 3 days to land another one

 

[GMscoot]

Ya I just got mine and I still don't have them consistently

 

[jonpaulcostello]

Try standing at the very back of your deck with both feet together, that's the only way that I land them.

 

[Ronnie Bergan]

Just go faster.
