This year I want to learn a flat 5. How do you do get back on axis? I can get off and spin when I tried some into the pool this summer and onto a mattress but how do you spin and then get back? I am going to try it in the pipe first since it will be much easier but I want to learn off of a kicker or table later.

just focus on staying smooth and ur knees at ur chest when you spot ur landing u should be able to fall right back on axis

you can't really do flatspin off a jump. flat spin is just like a flater rodeo in pipe. I think.

anyway, aly-oop flat 5 i think is easier than downhill. you cominto the wall set like rodeo, but the key is to keep you legs rotating at the same pitch as the pipe. If it is steep than the pipe, it may turn out nto be ally-oop flair.

Thats how i have tried it, i come around, but iu have never stuck one

^haha, can't do a flatspin off a jump. Good one.

Well, one of my personal favs is the good ole nut grind. All you need to do is head up to the jump, spread your legs nice and wide, pop, and then be prepared for a nice surprise. -KLD

doing a trick is one thing, breaking it down and figuring out different parts of it is difficult. trampoline!! do video analysis till you figure it out for yourself on a tramp

ha non of u no what ur talkin about other than gangster, tramp is the only way, flatspin isnt a spin on a certain axis(to the creator of this thread) is a rodeo thats not inverted, so learn a rodeo, or if u can do a rodeo, just try and lay it out more sideways, thats what it looks like atleast and im sure if u did that you would do a flatspin, they r pretty much the same as a rodeo

whats up now bitch

pussyfooter definetly has the best advice i learned rodeos first then one time when i was going for a rodeo it ended up turning into a flat spin. just keep practicing on trampolines and you'll get it. it is definetly a fun trick

i learned rodeos first, and as i did them they turned into flatspins involuntarily. which sort of sucks

no thats a Full, I thought the same thing. but they say a rodeo is a lincoln 360 not a backflip 360. I can't actually tell the difference when I try

naw, what twintipteles means is a rodeo is a spinning backflip, not a backflip with a spin(like a backfull). dont bother saying that the two are the same cause they arent
