Steps
-
A big bunny hop
Height is the fuel. Make sure you can bunny hop high and comfy first.
-
Jump and pull
Crouch, explode, pull the bars up. Grip hard: the bars are the part that doesn't spin.
-
Kick the deck around
Kick the back of the deck sideways with your back foot so it whips around the stem. Pull your feet up out of the way.
-
Watch it come round
Watch the deck finish its lap and put your back foot on it first as it comes back.
-
Catch and land
Catch it with both feet, knees bent, land on both wheels.
