180 flip and varials

At your level of riding I would say just practice.

ok thanks, I was just woundering if there was any tips (like lean back

computer and practice.

For 180 flips, I think you need to experiment with what works best for
you. I would say try to keep your body in a vertical line with the uni
while you are spinning. Also, try to kick your feet up, rather than
out. That way it is easier to get them back down in time to catch the
flip. Those are the things that helped me go from almost landing them
to landing them

I know why Tomsey is so good at backs and why Shaun owns at normal
flips.
It has to do with the gravitational pull. Like how the toilet flushes
in the opposite direction down there. Well its easier down there to
flip backwards then forwards

I cant hick yet, havnt realy tried it. I have landed a varial but not
rolled out of one yet. I saw your video which Is why I started to learn
them. I will probably learn hicks next although my freestyle uni should
come in about a week when they get my tyre in stock, then I want to get
my 1ft ww better and learn to glide.

Hicks are pretty simple. I havnt heard of anyone learning Varialflips
before hicks. Do you guys 180 Flip the same way you normaly hop twist?
I do, but I do all my spins, Varials, Bigspin, etc. The opposite way I
hoptwist which made them hard to learn, I'm closer to Inwardflip then
Varialflip ^^

I got hicks before outs. But thats pretty cool, why hick when you can
out. Seat in moves look so much better.

prefer Hickflips....... but why? its like the zero plant version of a
Footplant Crankflip. I can do Hickflips static but not Outflips. Unless
I were doing Hickflips static I'd prefer Outflips.

What dont you get? Why do you prefer Hickflips? I think outflips are
pretty much impossible static.
