is it possible to break a neck by practicing tapping while on the head? im scared that i might damage neck and be in paralysis....i know im a pansy u can call me that but. if the only damages are contusions and minor aches, then im all up for it, but if spinal damage is possible then im going to be more careful at it....
well whats the possible damage for beginner head spinners lol

thanks

How do you look down when you're headspinning? I think that's turn into a nosespin. :P




Some people are like slinkies. Utterly useless, but rather entertaining to watch when pushed down a flight of stairs.

BBoy ZRJ, I'm just learning the headspin and not much farther than you at all so please do not take this as a rule you shoudl continously use, infact it may hurt your headspinsbut i try to turn my head while spinning and that helps, i also make my hands point out from the side of my head which helps make my push a spin, and I try to turn my body while doing all this

If any experienced bboy can confirm or correct my tips please do
