Hang 5 foot placement?

[Chrispy]

I do hang 5's weird. I ride regular but i hang five with my right foot on the deck. Is this normal? It seems very hard to do hop hang 5's and to get into them in general. Should i change up my feet or.....

try to just learn nose manuals, i did hang 5s for a little bit but then just forgot about them. Nose manuals look soooo much better and cleaner and tricks out of and into nose manual are alot easier than with hang 5s

My nose manuals suck ahah. I feel cramped when doing them and i can get em like 2-3 feet. I'll try those more tho

yeah you really just need to practice them and they will get better, i cant even hang 5 like 10 feet now but i can nose manual really well.
it will be better trust me.

 

[Chrispy]

Nice imma practice thoseas soon as it stops raining.



*unrelated but should i feel stupid scootering? I feel silly and stuff riding one ahah*

It's because you ride regular, but you're right footed so it feels more comfortable to have your right foot on the deck. Alot of people do it, but it just looks kind of awkward. I'd just try learning nose manuals from the get-go.

On nosies should i use more arm or legs?

your center of mass is your torso, that is how you balance(physics gnar) and is what you're going to be shifting around to stay balanced so however you do that, normally its through my legs and knees

I find myself putting my front put on the headtube for both hang 5s and nose manuals

Thats physically impossible on an ultra pro. I really want a square downtube ahha

You should learn real tricks first.

its actually not...a square down tube and a round down tube arent going to make a noticeable difference
