Recently i have decided now is the time i will begin to swing thru most of my tricks. I have read quite a bit about what needs to be done however before executing it in a session i will collect as much advice for my fellow trickers first before applying.
The following video is 2 b-twists and just a random swing thru i was really tired when this was filmed so i didn't attempt to swing just kick out however i thought it was still a good idea to upload it as the b-twist i do are not super fast and ripped and make it easier to digest and to give advice.Theeenx :tongue:

[The second b-twist is more of an example of the control i have on my feet as i notice i don't get my none swinging leg under me enough]

I think it's pretty good, but try to pull your chest up more ;)

Cheers, Yeah when i actually say flash gainer / slant gainer i do pull my chest up. But i think i need to start pulling it up earlier in the swing!

I think you're ready for the swing ^^ Try it
And also, try dipping in your b-twist, it might help you with stuff

Thanks for the advice. I tend to dip more when i am not lethargic but ill considerate on the too, my main priority is to keep my b-twist horizontal. I don't want a slanted b-twist > s/t haha!

Of course man haha, I hate those vertical "b-twists" s/t something haha, kinda' removes the point of swinging through something.

Dip
Control b-twist (Not to fast/slow)
Keep Swinging leg chambered till landing
Chest drawn back on landing
Anymore advice?

Hey i made a series of tutorials, Ill admit my tricks probably were not adequate to train others at the time so i think i will remake them when i feel i am more textbook with my tricks. :tongue:

Oh really!:tongue: that's cool glad i assisted a few people then. I would already have s/t's etc but it was that winter coming up that i received a shoulder injury from snowboarding that knocked me out of tricking till then end of my summer. When i returned i couldn't even link 2 tricks together but by the start of this year i was back to normal with more control so i decided instead of the old get as many tricks as i can i will just clean my tricks up which i have done up to date.
Got a few new tricks on the go though like Double B-twist almost landed and a few others but ill save them for summer so i have less chance of injury.

*Super Hyper Dip where you Drag your head along the ground* - juji, lol
I have before:
B-twist> s/t > Cork
B-twist> s/t > Arabian
B-twist> s/t > Slant gainer
But i felt no control in all of them. they have been like flukes or crummy so i decided wither or not i know the advice i was going to be given it cant hurt to i can get more of the lead in to the s/t right so i can feel control quicker :juji:
I really just love anything s/t.

i attempted to try b-twist>G-Flash today and every time i went to swing up i would just spin on my landed foot i cant shift my momentum to go over straight. How do i land with the momentum stop spinning.

you need to spot the ground before your foot lands, watch some ott's samplers in slomo.
don't just let it go down, kick it down where you want it to be and when you go for a gainer open your chest

just drill more
if you land a lil forward, put more power into it
cheers
