Think about a underflip as a 90, Lincoln loop toward uphill, then another 90 should come arou

Fu mobile. Another 90 should come around. Just really focus on the 90 before. It will blend into one motion and be an underflip

Rodeo is like a backflip but you kick your opposite foot to your ear, or think about tackling something in front of you with one arm and spinning around

underflip and rodeo are two completely different tricks. Rodeo you just lay on your back and set as if you're setting a lincoln. Underflip is set a lot like a cork 5 but inverted-- not a misty though, more like a d-spin 5 if that makes sense. Another way to think about it (my way of thinking) is to think of it as a quick 180 into a frontflip, i know this might sound crazy but it helps me. Also Rodeo is a much easier set

for underflips my trick is set a backflip and once you're upside down just look over your shoulder. if you set your flip knowing you're going to look over tht shoulder, you should start the flip off axis a bit. basically, your head should be doing an upside down J to the left motion.

on my underflips i make sure to carve a lot and set it super spinny and just snap my head back off take off. They are closer to corks and look cooler.

underflip is just a set for a backflip and then drop your shoulder, not a tough trick at all, first invert beside backs and fronts that i learned.
