How To Be

This year I decided to buy myself a pair of Dynastar Trouble Makers which means I'll be spending a lot more time in the park. Unfortunately, I don't really know the first thing about jumping.

My largest gap was across a service road (8-10') but what I'd really like to learn is how to spin and flip. Could someone help me with the basics? Any good instructional videos out there? I don't have access to a trampoline and I know that's a crucial first step.

Thnx,

Matt from UMASS

start with 180s, 360s, etc... look over your shoulder in the direction you want to spin

Start watching a shitload of ski movies and youll get the idea

It teaches you air awarness , so you know where you are in the air and dont freak out. Tramps help alot

try stuff into pools and then start out spinning

if we had more people like ATLANTASKI the world would be a better place.

if u can go to a pool and practice flips and spins that wil help a lot. my friend and i were doing some tricks into pools, i think it was a lincoln loop we wer doing. not sure though

if we had more people like ATLANTASKI the world would be a better place.

start doing spins off of small things, like in the kiddy park jumps (yea i know, gay, but it works) once you can 360 off of ANYTHING start with the bigger stuff, get comfy in the air and shit, it'll help a lot

 
Wow, how'd you get so cool?

yeah just start trying little 180s and 3s off small jumps. if yo ucan land a 180 just standing on the ground you cxan easily spin 3...just pop a little set your spin wiht your head and shoulders (not just head) and then try to stay relaxed for the landing
