New Rider

[brymche]

Hi all!
I just started riding today. I got a Razor Pro XX because I wanted a cheaper scooter to start out with. Anyway, I got 180's today and I have yet to learn the fakieing-out part, and I was wondering if you guys have any tips. Also, if anyone has any tips on anything else which I should do or learn, please tell me.

Thank you!

Mostly practice. I learned braking out of them then I realize it was dumb... So just keep trying.

Practice. Commit.

learn whips, 360, barspin, 180 both ways etc. you'll figure it out. and be patient

first you want to learn the basics tailwhips(keep the bars underneath your chest and use your arms), 360(wind up the opposite way and where ever your head and shoulder spins your body will follow), barspins(you have 1 hand that spins it around and 1 hand you grab it with when it comes around, 1st put the hand you catch it with underneath the hand you spin it with. 2nd spin the bar with your 1 hand left on the bars while your hand you catch it with is still underneath your hand you spin it with. 3rd after you spin it about half way around you will see that from there you can grab it with the hand that is underneath, after you grab it with the hand that is underneath take the hand you spun it around with and reposition it back to where it started.) if you keep practicing those then you will be able to get more creative and put them together in combos before you know it. and for fakies when you land backwards turn your wheel just slightly the opposite way as if you were going to back up a car into a parking spot if that makes sense.. it helps keep your momentum going the same direction
