Flat riding and Donkey dick rails

Alright, so I'm trying to get truckdrivers, bar-to-fakies (FS and BS), and decades flat. I can one-foot the decades, but with the trucks and bar-to-fakies, for some reason, I can either get the spin, but freeze up and can't get the bars around, or get the barspin, and can't get the rotation. Any help with these?

My other problem is donkey dick downrails. Since there are no good downrails around here, I have to be content with donkey dicks. Should I not even attempt it? I've seen skaters and snowboarders ride them, but trying to hit it on a scooter seems pretty dangerous. I'm not talking big, either, like a 5 stair.

That little kink thing at the end. That's a donkey dick.

yeah i do those all the time, just hit it the same way you hit a normal rail and just suck your knees up and take your weight off the deck as much as possible, or you could just cut the kink off

Yeah I snowboard it's a snowboarding term haha. But by "bar-to-fakie" do you mean 180 bars? If that, don't try truckdrivers. You should have 180 bars down in your sleep before you even think about trying those.
TIPS ON 180 BARS:
Focus on getting momentum for the spin, and then take off so you know you have the rotation. After making sure you have the rotation, throw the bars and catch them, and wait to land. Ride fakie. Get out of fakie. Voila!

I wasn't aware people didn't know what a donkey dick was. But yeah, so...okay. I think I got it now. Or at least I will. I just got new shit yesterday and my ICS is all wonky, and I'm getting my wisdom teeth out today. So I'll be trying all this...Tuesday, at the earliest.
