wow, headspins to me are the scariest. i can balance fine on my hands but not my head.

Bboy-Sketch · 05-31-2008, 12:29 PM

okay i got a problem. i start to spin and im alright for like 2 spins and then i start to go back down onto my knees and i have to use all my strength to hold myself up. im pretty sure all i needa do i keep my body locked but im not really sure how to do that.

thanks so much for ur guide! now im able to do 1/2spin and tap once. is it necessary that ur legs must be str8? i felt that sometimes my legs just automatically swings when i did the spins, but sometimes my legs does not swings at all. is that a problem?

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

letsgoBREAKevin · 07-20-2008, 09:35 PM

so like a quick question. if my legs come down when i try to catch them is there anyway for me to help them say up or what? what should i do. i notice they come down when i stop and catch myself. another thing. you should be looking out straight right now down? i mean some ppl do it and some dont. any tips?

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

mine lower neck connecting the back is kinda hurting when i arch mine head back far and when i press on the lower back of mine neck............is that ok? will it go away after a few weeks? hopefully its not some serious damage...O_O

i watch ur video and u kick with ur legs when u headspin is it possible to headspin without kicking ur legs(drills) and do it by only tapping

bboylearning · 11-03-2008, 07:18 PM

BBoyZRJ · 11-04-2008, 07:26 PM

i cant get the tapping part.. When i push i dun seem to be turning.. Any1 can help me wid this?

bboylearning · 11-05-2008, 06:19 PM

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
