ok i wrote this like 2 days ago its in the standin thread...

its like goin into 90s
ok ill make a lil guide:

cw(if u go ccw change lefts to rites) btw:

*youre on standin position now, throw yo left hand to the floor n at the same time yo rite leg shud be goin bak n at the left (like behind yo left leg)

*rite hand goes to the floor (finger tips shud b facin to the bak) n at the same time throw yo left leg to the left

at this time u shud be in the air wit both legs wide open n both hands on the floor

*now heres the tricky part bend yo rite hand n throw yo body to it

now u shud be kinda like in collapse position but wit much more momentum

*now u can choose to stab or not to, unstabbed looks better but since youre learnin try stabin 1st then learn without it

everythiin else its like a normal mill now

hope u get wat im sayin
peace

Isn't that like a coindrop or somethin? I don't kno a whole lot but thats wut coindrops are like rite? Itz where ur like in a handstand but u twist up ur hips and collapse onto ur back and untwist ur hips and the same time to get a spinning effect. I think...

how come when I'm tryin to link mills (I go CW)

my left leg always touches the floor?

(when ur finishing ur first mill and going into your second my left leg always sweeps the ground which causes me to slow down)

how do i prevent that?

any tips?

you're getting lazy and losing momentum on your second rotation.

oh and don't do it like how aussie did it. it's bad form. learn to do mills from a push-up position. then just drop down (see noni's guide) into that position and mill from there.

which part of aussiesboy form was bad if u meeant the starting style well its harder than a stab start-up but it gives so much more momentum and u will need to learn from a stand-up position later on anyways..but yes stab is easier to learn in the begining..

One hand down at a time, it looks smoother. Swing your legs exactly like how you would from windmills from handglide, after all, it is the same move. Just put one hand down, then put down your collapsing arm and do windmills. I suggest you learn windmills from handglide as a prerequisite, in case you haven't already learned that.
