Ok, I don't know if this applies to everyone or not, but when I do them I find it helps to lean a tiny bit forward into your balance point and push DOWN on the bars. Think push-ups when you're doing them and just try and hold it in the "push-up position" lol and then the balancing with your leg will pretty much come naturally with a little practice. But when I do it I push down on the bars fairly hard because I don't change my foot position when I do hang fives, I just keep it at the back of the deck where I usually have it, so if you do it with your foot on the foldy or right behind it (not the best way imo because it makes it harder to jump into them) you barely have to lean forward much, just concentrate on pushing down on the bars and you're set.Steven_T said:Brian, do you type with one hand and both eyes closed..?

that's actually really solid advice. good job jordan.Jordan said:manny 180s- you gotta like kinda carve? when you're first learning them. maybe it'll help if you spin a fs 180 too. when your doing the 180 kinda tuck your bars into your lap, and actually jump the opposite direction of the spin.
