Headspin Drills - 01-29-2008, 01:48 AM

What's the best way to develop balance to get a few rotations? I slide and fall right from the start.

Practicing's good and all but I don't wanna do shit the wrong way. Like I spent months doing scorpions when i was trying to learn hollows, and I spent months doing 6 step with really shit form.

rule number one - get some balls to do the move
rule number two - whip ur legs
rue number three - after the whip, lock your whole body as stiff and as straight as u can, if u let ur hips bend, u come crashing straight down

Get excellent headstand balance.Thats to where you can bring your toes about an inch from the ground in every direction without tapping.Front,sides,and head hollows help the back.This will help with balance in general and build your neck muscles up.

If your going CCW your left leg would wind up with hips swing from low to strait up and locked with right leg.

practice makes perfect.
Hope this helped.

theres no real good way to get balance man. the best way is to practice practice and practice. everyone is different so some people just take longer thats all. remember just hav fun. if u crash u crash who cares your getting to where u want to be.




=my motto hav fun and dont giv up. patience is the key=

Do a barrel roll.

Just kidding, but the way i pratice is to wear a helmet? i dont know it works for me at first you practice with something on your head i guess, as you progress just use a beanie or not, but as said before whip your legs as fast but practice balancing on your head first like just pure balance no spins yet. When you're comfortable with a position then you can start spinning. keep your body stiff and legs straight. Practice practice.

it's good if u've got head spin, head spin is not hard to archive though
u must have head stand with straight legs down, a good one.
and usually i see they do head drills from powermoves like flares or air flare etc.
i do head drills from footwork which i only get about from 2 to 3 spins <_<
