Barspins

[TSchneider]

So whenever I try to barspin, the rest of my scooter hits the ground before my hands get back on the bars and the whole thing just falls over. I've practiced catching barspins by just putting my front wheel off of a curb and just spinning it, I can do it just fine.

I've searched and searched, I still can't do it. I even try pulling the bars up before I throw, but nothing works. I'm pretty pissed, I can whip and 360 flat, but I can't bar. Help please.

Try Jumping really high and Spin it hard i had the same problem. Just try doing it off a curb like jump it

Look up Nate Grant's tutorial on youtube for barspins. I think he has one for scooters and on a fuzion but it's still the same principle for the trick.

maybe try to do like Busdrivers at first.Dont throw the Bars just pass them arund.
But you really should learn how to throw and catch them if your comfortable with passing them because thats the right way to do them.

How big are your bars? I know when i had my RUP Lo bars i couldnt for my life land a single one but from practicing them so often and not getting them at all on the RUP, As soon i tried with the new Blunt stripper's i get them ever single time. So basicly it could just be that your bars are to short.

Don't do busdrivers. ever. you might get stuck doing them and do them for ever. then everyone will make fun of your busdrivers (Brody McMaster)

just lean your weight over the front but keep your legs back, and jump straight up don't do a j hop it will mess you up.

this. i only got em flat recently. i used to ALWAYS hit the ground before catching. i just kept practising and jumping higher and spinning faster till finally i got it.

dont throw them pass them with yo hands

^ dont learn those. theyre called bus drivers and they look shitty as hell unless your doing it like over a stair set or ledge or a big box jump. just throw with one hand and catch with the opposite theyre easier that way

i had the same problem too with bars but as soon as i got my rup i leanred em good and now with my district and phoenix bars i can do them with like any trick

there are tutorials out there but for barspins it is literally ALLL about just practicing and getting into the rythym of throwing and catching..

Stand on your deck on a curb or over a ledge, etc. with you front wheel over the edge and just practice spinning and catching one full barspin. you'll end up turning your catching hand palm up a little bit and thats when you know youre doing it right and recieving the bars.

Repitition is everything though. And once you can spin with one hand and catch with the other youre golden.

they way i learned is by doing footplant busdrivers, then i did hop busdrivers, and now i do regular barspins. but when i bar i kinda do a 1 handed x-up then i throw the bars

 

[simplicity]

When I do bars I jump and start to throw them at almost the exact same time, but I hold on to the bar for a while, like my bar gets almost half way around before i flick it and let it spin freely..and I catch it with my other hand and bring my first hand back almost right after.. It gives little room for failure when you do it that way. similar to that last post saying something about one handed x-ups, but I think i release them sooner than what he is specifying.
