haha..you're like my cousin. he can drill, but can't tap. its okay though. all you have to do is learn to balance on your head by tipping it down so you can see the ground then just maneuver yourself arond with your arms/hands... also try moving your head in the same direction as they way your spinning. good luck!

Haha... I'm a chick. But yeah, it's okay to be able to see the ground, but not too much that you're doing "forehead"spins... LOL. Alright, well hope that works for you!

hey try letting your fingertips drag on the ground when your spinning, its alot easier to get the feeling of how to tap if you do it that way.

It doesn't matter what religion you believe in, or what god(s) you worship, just believe in something.

learn to tap a million...meaning, tap as much as u have to until ur comfortable..

Dont bite the hand that feeds u, eventually everyone helping u will get annoyed...jesus.

Beginners giving beginners tips without understanding what they are saying is probally one of the worst ways to spread KNOWLEDGE.....which is the key to anything in life.

I think the problem is u still struggling with ur balance...coz if u can do a balanced headstand....tapping is very easy....all u have to do is just moving ur hands and ur head will follow....Plus,tap slowly if u are just learning,don't rush!

beanies can cause lots of problems too, spinning inside of them is VERY bad for you, not to mention finding one without that crap on the top is bad
