1990 guide - 10-13-2003, 03:17 PM

ok so heres my guide on 1990s...i'm gonna describe it for spinning on your left hand, if you spin on your right just switch it

1) for step one you see a alot of people saying cross one leg over the other...dont do this it's WRONG. what you really wanna do is start in a standing position, then take your left leg and swing it back behind you and up. this will give you the height to get into the handstand.
2) as your left leg swings behind you, you wanna put you're RIGHT hand on the ground. this is the oppostie hand from the one you spin on.
3)after your hand is on the ground, you continue with the swing of your left leg and take your right leg off the ground, so all of you're weight is on you're right hand.
4) from the spin motion that you did initially with your left leg, you should have a slight spin while in a one handed handstand. DO NOT STOP THIS SPIN.
5) you do these all almost at the same time...put your left hand on the ground, whip you're legs around until they come together and cross (they should be open in a V shape when in the handstand), and push with you're right hand. after you push you take your right hand off the ground.

the trick to 90s is that you hafta spin on the right prt of your hand. this part is a hard bone in the bottom corner of your palm. this allows you to continue spinning...you want to avoid putting the rest of your hand on the ground or there will be too much friction to spin

hope this help, just keep practicin

one more thing that helps. i see people complainin about not bein able to move when they get up there. one of the main problems is ur not straight up. u might not think so but ur arm is probably extended at a 45 degree angle from ur body. try to bring ur arm behind ur head and dont look at the ground (this is optional but it helps me). dont chicken out. u might fall backwards when u first try it cause its not as easy to catch ur fall but it doesnt hurt. just dont think about it too much and spin

ok to get up...what you really need to do is swing your left leg in a diagonal sweep up...this is what will get you off the ground. its almost like how you kick straight up to get into a normal handstand, but more complex because there's a spin thrown in there too. as you're left leg is getting your body up, you need to get your right hand on the ground so that you can catch youself...this is common sense lol. if you dont cqatch yourself you'll wind up doin a face plant which sucks really bad. so basiclly its the left leg sweeping diagonally up, then the right leg follows and you end up in a one handed handstand on your right hand with you're legs in a V. then you put you're left hand down, swing your legs closed, and push
