Barspins

[Andrew Young]

Just curious, how many people still throw their barspins? I still throw mine, except for 360 oppo bars

 

[michaelchavez]

[BrandonWeir]

I throw them a lot too. But after doing them for a while I'm starting to become a feeder.

 

[BenJelinek]

I always have and always will throw. On everything.

i never throw them just because its gets hard and sketchy down bigger gaps like stairs

i didn't want to start a new thread on this because its not really needed, i just wonderd how you jump higher when you barspin. its kinda confusing to explain but thanks anyway.

 

[Arnor Smari]

Bunnyhop, and throw the barspin when you level out. Looks better and it's more comfortable.. atleast for me

Think about jumping higher and really try and you will.

just wondering, how do you catch barspins? i want to do them down gap, ledges and stairs, but, i dont know how to catch them and i catch the bars right as i hit the ground.

 

[BrandonWeir]

Set your deck on a curb or a ledge so that the front wheel isn't touching the ground, stand on it, and slowly pass or toss the bars around and catch them. Do it faster and faster til you can do it really fast and catch them every time. Then, put one foot on the deck (on flat ground), lift up the front wheel, and do barspins without letting the front drop to the ground. Then if you want you can do little manual barspins. After that you pretty much have them.

I think I throw them? Give me a video example of passing and then throwing

 

[BrandonWeir]

I couldn't really find a clear video but tossing is when you just shove the bars and let go as soon as possible, and feeding is where you hold the bars with one hand almost until you catch it with the other. So it's like tossing the bars but you have one hand guiding them the whole way.

 

[spencer cunningham]

i will always throw my barspins.

 

[tylerbillman]

I guess I'm inbetween then?
