Try to find a trampoline to practice the feeling of the rotation. Also, you could try the trick tip cult.

Thats was ridiculous. Of all the trick tips i've seen, that was hands down, the best. He explains it so clearly.

thats a flatspin a rodeo is a lincon 180, try and do a lincon except dont focus on a point on the horizen like ure supposed to and you will to a rodeo because your body atomaticall will start to spin if your not focusing on that point

rodeo definatly isnt lincon 180.... lincon 180 is underflip/overflip depending on the direction of the lincon. a rodeo is more 90-backflip-90.... andreas trick tip is probally going to be the most helpful

No no no.

Would you say it would be better to learn back flip before rodeo 5?

when doing flips such as rodeos, does the actual flip count as 360 and then it's 540 because half a turn is done during the flip?
thnx

rodeos and misty count 360 for flip/flatspin PLUS a minmum 180. So all up they equal 540.

It definitely helps, especially getting comfortable with inverted tricks if you haven't done them.  Backflips are the easiest trick out there in my opinion, so you could learn both in one day!

Also, knowing how to do 5's is a big help too.  A rodeo 5 is basically just a backflip and a 5 melded into one smooth rotation.
