Am I the only retard?

That has trouble doing a roundoff? I've searched the forums and couldn't find many people requesting help with roundoffs, and all the tuts on youtube are shit. Any tips? Or is it just practice? (only attempted about 5 times)

[Golzernurf]

ARGHHH
i wrote like a HUGE thing, but then it deleted
ok well here goes again, when you are starting the roundoff you need to focus alot on the hurdle, not like jumping hurdles but as in, yeah you get the point, when you go into it, if you start on the right foot make sure you hop on your left foot then step onto your right, as you are hopping pin your arms up to your ears, so you should look like you're about to dive into a pool, and then when your arms hit the ground prop, and push off as fast as possible, so the second they hit the ground that's they second you have to get them off and when you land back on your feet, jump up right after.....
doo doo doo
i hope that helps

[MasterSword]

[Golzernurf]

Tried it, made me worse, will practice tomorrow and try get a vid if I still can't do it

[anerky]

I had to have my little sister teach me how to do a roundoff :agony:
It was when I was about 11, wayy before I actually tricked or knew about tricking; I just didn't want her to be 1uping me with her wicked new cartwheel variation

[pete_man_man]

you're the only gay eskimo

[Golzernurf]

I'm not an eskimo

[Rob]

Yes you are, you can't stand heat but cold has no effect on you. I'll try helping you with this tommorow after our stats session.

Rounds offs are gay haha, I had loads of problems with them. Just kindaaa learn cartwheels, really extend your body out before your hand touchs the floor though, and its not like hands side to side, its one hand down side, then as you're turning in the air it's another hand next to it. Then come down with both feet and BAM, round off.

Takes plenty of practice if you're not used to it I must say.
