Fingerwhips?

[Zack Jackson]

i cant really do them becuase when i hit the deck with my hand it really hurts sometimes. anyone do the same?

 

[Storer]

i got a tip, instead of hitting the deck, grab it and give it a push, practice makes perfect.

 

[Zack Jackson]

yea ive been thinking that

 

[AJ]

thats a good way that Storer said to do... but i hit my deck and it really dosent hurt... just get into a rythem of watever feels good then try a way that would look good... L8er

i just slap my deck like its a little bitch. Doesnt hurt at all unless its cold outside.

Fingerwhips- when you leave the ramp, take your hand off of the grip, at the same time pull the deck higher and lean down, smack the deck with your hand so a tailwhip starts and move your hand back to the bars as quick as you can to finish the whip.

 

[Newfie Skoot]

Try to aim for the brake and or drop-outs, it is easier to get around.

brian boston posted this awhile ago in anaother finger whip thread the proper stance is

and it shouldnt hurt it with your palm

 

[related2jesus]

if it hurts try n do it with gloves on and aim for the brake and near da back cuz it spins better

 

[jakob-b]

use your palm it doesnt hurt a glove wouldnt help

 

[Jordan Jasa]

if its cold out, and you have gloves on, it helps. it will warm up your hand, and it won't hurt as much if you don't have gloves. and yeah, aim towards the back, pull the scoot up immediately after you take off, etc.

 

[brendon]

when i first started trying them i would hit it with my fingers, and that what was hurting im pretty sure.
once i started doing it with my whole hand it doesnt really hurt.

ha.
do what kenny says!
that should work.

 

[related2jesus]

practice

 

[David N.]

dont literally hit it wiht your finger... use your hand and if it continues to hurt, wear gloves.

Make sure you head straight at the QP, if your going on an angle the deck drifts away

 

[farmboy uk]

not if you're skilled, god derek at least do clean cross foot double whips to cross foot before giving people advice

 

[razorrider48]

[nolan]

my feet always land right next to the deck
