I learned them today and I know your supposed to hop high and throw the spin at the beginning of the hop but for me I always do it at the top of the hop and I land it but I more land ON the scooter than actually catching it in midair. What's some tips to get the spins fast and clean? I have the spins super fast and clean jut spinning them in the house or holding the scooter but I can't quite get I that fast mid trick

how wide are your bars? kids will say the width doesn't matter but sometimes it kills your bar speed. but other than that just keep practicing. i throwing just before i reach peak height and still catch them high. keep practicing especially if u just learnt them today

once you get bars dialed start j-hopping into them (like picking up the front wheel and jumping while leaning back) then thrown the bar

They will get faster and cleaner as you practice them more up stuff, down stairs and stuff because at that point you will HAVE TO catch it good so you don't crash, hah..
And I also do them the same way you do, throw them late.. more bmx style

Do a high J hop (frontwheel first then backwheel) and when your front and backwheel are on the same level in the air, do a barspin. So you do it kinda late.
