i just searched the thread, and didnt find much on this topic
when you tail whip, do you kick with one foot, or both feet?

 

[jeff26]

f you are asking what we each do. i mainly kick with one foot. if you are asking what should you do? id say do what is comfortable.

 

[Stantheman]

well, you see
when i try a regular tailwhip, it goes so slow
but when i try this other trick, where i do a tailwhip+half, body varial, it spins much faster

 

[jeff26]

well then do that. however if it looks really goofy and you dont like the way it looks, id reccomend learning them that way and then changing the way you do it. but just do whats comfortable for now.

that's called a downside whip, judging by your description...

And it's all in your wrists. If you are tailwhipping too slow, it's not only in the kick, it's in the wrists. You gotta kick it hard and then use your wrists to finish the rotation and then catch it before you land.

downside whip,

use one and alot of wrist action

 

[Gnome]

it all depends on whichever is natural, whichever feels more comfortable, and whichever one you think looks better. so it's not like you'll get made fun of either way.

I usually don't kick very hard at all, just a tap so I can take over with my wrists.
