What I do for fwhips is once I get in air, bring the scooter up and reach down to spin the deck with my fingers, or at least I try to hit it with my fingers. And then I get my hand back to the bars as fast as possible to spin it around. You can spin the deck with one hand too, so if you can do that it's that much easier.

pickit up between ur legs, smack it with whatever part of ur hand "doesnt hurt"...hit it hard enough for it to spin, and if u CAN get ur hand on it before u land thats all the better...but a lot of people easily do flat fw's just depends on how high u jump/how hard u hit it and the momentum of the spin u put in with ur wrists etc...flat fw's come easyto me for some reason...prac lol

Yeah just bring the scotter up and then hit the deck with your hand so it does a tailwhip and land back on it

I've almost got fingerwhips off a 2 foot high ledge, though I find them pretty hard to spin. I'd say just practice off some kind of drop until you can get them, and then keep progressing to curbs, and then flat. Or you can even use ankle weights :D

once you finger it slap your hand back on the handlebar as fast as you can so your can finish rotating your whip then you just ride away witha sweet fingerwhip.

haha hes not the only one ;)

bring the deck straight up, dont bring it in front of you, get your legs out to the sides or tuck them up, whichever you prefer, so long as they are out of the way, hit the deck with your fingers, i hit it at the bottom of my fingers, closer to my hand. for flat fingerwhips i usually just aim to get my hand back on the bar when i land, if im catching fingerwhips or doing more than one, get your hand on as good and fast as you can, and think tailwhip. for triple fingerwhips i just do a fingerwhip, grab the bar then think 'tailwhip' and i find it helps a lot

edit: lean forward.
