Alright.. Everyone asks how to do a tailwhip, and all the people who know how to tailwhip reply with "Practice" Well, there is much more to it than just practice (even though it plays a big part).
So here is how to do a tailwhip:
I: Start rolling a long at a comfortable pace, not too fast/slow
II: Position your back foot so your toes are hanging over the edge of the deck. Position your front flip somewhere in the middle, whatever is comfortable to you.
III: Now your going to want to jump with the scooter as high as you can, while flicking the scooter around with the toes hanging over the edge as hard as you can.
IV: At the same time you are going to want to make a little circle motion with the handle bars as hard as you can to give the scooter some extra momentum.
V: The scooter should fall into place, by doing all of these things as hard as you can (strength wise) you will be able to judge how much power to give in order for the scooter to land under your feet.
And thats it, just practice these things and you should get it quite easily. Just remember: Jump hard. Flick Hard. Twirl Bars Hard. and you will be good to go.
Good luck everyone!
