i dont post here. i really need to start, so ill start here.


ive been riding for roughly 2 months, and i can whip, double, 180, 360, and saturday i got bri flips.

what i cant seem to do so well is barspins, no handers, or anything with letting go.


i cant really do grabs, and i need 3 feet of air or more just to front wheel grab. i think its fear of crushing my fingers.


and tips to get over this? or to practice the tricks to letting go is comfortable?

on nose grabs just work your way down
so just start at the headtube, then just go down further and further

I piss off Rotscoots cuz hes been going a year and he cant.

I ride a 21 high RUP. stock fork and such.

its light. very light, but i can almost bri my friends luck. his bars are wider and have back drift to them. so its harder.

and i can do some rails, no hand tho. and i can stall some cool stuff. downside whip stall, wheel, ice, tweak a disaster, but rot scoots has me everywhere. he catches tails, i barely can.

I can even scooter fakie... but i want barspins. alot

I got myself banned.
letting go of the bars the first time is all about being confident that you wont get hurt. start in grass and when you realize how easy the tricks are and start to get them you wont hesitate to take them to a ramp.

I am the opposite as you...

I ride BMX as well as scoot, and on my scooter, I can do all sorts of tricks where I let go, but on my BMX, I couldn't let go to save my life.

If you're having trouble letting go of the scoot go muck around on a tramp scooter. If you wanna learn barspins, probably learn how to get the rotation and catch on a tramp scooter but don't get used to doing it on a tramp scoot. They are so different out of QP's and off kickers. I still can't get them off kickers, only QP's lol. Imo don't get used to doing them one way, cause nearly everyway you try it it's different. Well, for me it is anyway...
