Dorm Tricks

[Inkrepid]

Soo, a little about me so maybe the following comments will make more sense. Ive been tricking for about 2 years, and so far have been out 8 of those months just for 2 consecutive broken ankles. Add in 2 more for heart surgery, and its more like about 14 months of actual tricking time, but whatever. Anywho, I used to trick a lot, but nowadays with college and everything, I trick maybe once a month if that. For that reason, as well as the broken ankles, Ive never really gotten much of a feel for higher level moves. This is my second session I could land 540s consistently in 2 years. These are my first ever real attempts at a sideswipe, jacknife, and pop 720. All were landed on first try.

Any tips or advice would be excellent, particularly on my jacknife, the second kick needs more oomph.

*edit*

I don't have too many suggestions, your stuff looks pretty clean. For the jacknife, maybe having more flexibility/high hook would come in handy? Also, on your first 540, drive that first leg up hard, it will get you higher in the air. Other than that, pretty good stuff, keep it up!
