my first tailwhip was about 1 week after i started to scooter.

not too long ago, but it took a little bit to learn how to use my wrists.

i think most people learned on flat.

well i'm not sure how long it took me to tailwhip lol, i'd had a scooter for half my life but i only did like x-ups and no footers, couldn't whip, and i think like a month or month and a half after i found SR and started posting i finally landed one. I remember i would just barely put my foot down on the ground and land one footed, then i decided to jump as high as i could and i got it. i was like holy cow.

I was riding an indoor park in February 2005 and then i decided to learn real tailwhips instead of just doing footplant tailwhips. My first tailwhip was done onto funbox and practiced them till i landed them super straight and super smooth.
