Tailwhip help..

[RGScoot]

I've been trying to tailwhip for 5 days now, practicing about 20 minutes a day. I have been coming so close the past 2 days, but I always mess something up. Either I forget to kick the deck, don't spin it fast enough, or I don't catch it in time. Could it be because im riding a scooter a bit to small for me? (Razor Pro, getting a better one soon!). Or do I need more practice? I landed one once but then when both feet landed on the deck the whole scooter flew out from under me and I fell on my back. I completely bent the forks today while practicing

practice a lot more.

just keep at it, you'll get it with practice. not much to help with tailwhips, but once you get them, you will have them down for good

 

[D-Worden]

do it off of stuff if flat is giving you problems. curbs or kickers if you have one NEVER FLYOUT.

 

[goodie]

try it out of a bank or wedge thats how me and alot of people i know got them!!

 

[GMscoot]

Practice whipping it with your arms

 

[Michael Osterlund]

curl your toes around the side of the deck when you kick.

Whip with your front foot. And practice practice practice.

 

[Dallen.]

yes, whip with front foot, and remember its all in your wrists.......

 

[MrScoot]

whip with back foot
and catch with back foot

 

[Michael Osterlund]

when begging just throw your feet onto the deck as fast as you can after you whip, even if its not clean it will be after more practice.

Keep practicing

whi with front foot, use your wrists, catch with back foot, put other foot on.

 

[Jack Cronin]

practice

how i learned them was i just put all of my force into them. use your wrists to whip the deck around. just fully commit. it will be hard at first but they get easier, trust me

 

[Nate_Robertson]

took me a entire summer until i fully got them then i took me about 2 months until i got catches

I always used to like to step forward onto the ground with my top foot (my right cause I ride goofy) and whip it around with my back foot and hop back onto it. That's how I got them, and how I got double whips.
