umm 360 bar or truckdriver, whatever you want to call it, i can 180 bar pretty well and my 360s are dialed as fuck but i cant put the two together, i really dont know when to throw the bar...

what should i practice them on, i have mostly seen guys do them on hips

try to throw the bar when you have done half of the 360 which is 180
think to yourself late bar it works for me;)

ya i agree with mgprider about late bar. i throw mine late. after halfway. but it is all about prefrence if you rather throw early catch and finish spin or spin throw late and land. i prefer the second one

well to me, i honestly cant do them. Unless i do flyout but imo the throw late sounds a lot easier

Just throw the bar really late, and then gradually work your way to throwing it mid way.

i used to try these all the time and could never land it. then i stopped trying for a couple of days and then i landed one on my 1st attempt of that day and every since then i was dialed till i broke my collar bone.

anyways i throw my bars as soon as i spin catch and finish the spin. id say the best place to learn them is either flat or off a knee high ranged ledge.

I always like spin my body way faster than the scooter or something so my body ends up ahead of it and I end up like switch. I don't land it but I like almost land it. My truck attempts are so f-ed up.

keep the deck and the bars as tight to u as u can. i used to do the same thing when i started

i had a problem with truck drivers before. the main part is to make sure you have the whole 360 spin. just throw the bars halfway and try to catch it

360 whips?

ive been trying to do a 360 tailwhip but its kinda hard for me cuz im regular and i naturally spin frontside. so when i do it i have to do like a heel whip. any tips?
 
i only just got 360 barries and i tried throwing the barrie late and could never get them and then one of my mates said try throwing it straight away and i got it second go after that hope it helps

i throw mine early so by the time i get to 180 i stoped baring.
Also busdrivers help, which is passing the bar from hand to hand rather than letting it spin.

I first learned trucks flat too, for me i spin the bar the same way as im spinning (its just my normal bar) and throw the bar really early, i don't know y its just the way i do them. I guess its pretty good though cause now i can learn a 360 bar to bar easier.
So just keep practicing and concentrate on the spin and just throw the bar-spin whenever your comfortable, you'll get it anyway with practice.
