Butterfly twist HILFE

Jeembo007 · Feb-27-06, 10:19 AM

I've been able to B twist for a while, however I seem to be doing a half B twist half Illusion twist. Here is a video:

The first two are standing B twists that I finally landed yesterday, and the last one is just a regular B twist from a setup. Has anyone else had the problem I appear to be having, and any advice?

I always do illusion twists when i try btwists. just make sure you dont freak out and kick your leg out making it an illusion twist halfway throughout the trick.

Keep it consise, consistent.

I think the problem is that only your left leg is rotating so that your right becomes the axis. If you switch your legs when you spin it will become a btwist.

What do you mean by switching my legs?

I mean if you're going to move your left leg where your right leg is you better get it out of the way or it's path will be unnecessarily large (making it look like a dumpy kick); spin with both; move them both; switch them.
