Well I really need help on this matter. I'm starting to get afraid of the pain in my fingers when trying to windmilling. My shoulder collapses onto my hand, and it creates pain, so now I try to sort of jump out of handglide instead of collapsing. Hold your left ring finger's fingernail and touch it to your left shoulder. Basically that's what's happening. when I'm collapsing. Any suggestions ideas?

that sounds like it hurts i got no idea homie i heard once that pain is part of learning =) try not to be afraid it will make u f up when ever you try to do ANYTHING peace out

i once ALMOST broke my knukles(i fell out of this one freeze),
i had to make my own cast, it really is part of learning.

if u're a stylehead, u'd usually have ur fingers disjointed from footwork =P
so if the pain is still there after 2 or 3 days, u'd better go see a doc

I'm on my second semi-major finger sprain from footwork/toprock... sooooo breakings dangerous period :P

My basic assumption is your fingers aren't pointing towards your head during your collapse and instead to your side which is a big no-no, but without a video I can't really tell you what you're doing... your description is practically informationless.

WHOAA hold on. my fingers are supposed to point towards my head? they always point toward my side =s. is that really that bad?

[MaDD]

When you collapse do you roll over your fingers and slam your shoulder into the ground?
Thats what I did for the first 2months I was trying to learn mills... and yes... it was that bad.

So I shuld learn to handglide freeze with fingers pointed at my head?

what madd is saying, is that when your in stabbed for windmill, you fingers normal would be handglide stab, which for me in point to the side

when you collaspe your fingers should then point to your head
and not stay pointing to the side

[Quann]

Now im lost as a mofo. So I shoould twist/move my hand so my fingers are pointing up? (And collapse, swingmy right leg )

[MaDD]

Correct. The basic handglide start your fingers point initially towards your toes, and you twist over them until they point towards your head (a little before works too) and collapse... you've watched the guides here right? They show it pretty well.

Yea I've seen a few guides. I see what u mean. Imma practice that later. Thankss
