POST YOUR BTWIST PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
« on: December 05, 2010, 01:57:18 AM »
Just wanted to start this to see what everyone else's bwtist looks like. This will be great for others to look at fellow members and maybe ask them for tips on this specific trick to help them improve :D

this is me and my friend jay doing a tandem Btwist

mines the first clip (didn't feel like uploading a separate video)

p.s. i know mine wasn't horizontal, i was over focused on getting my body stacked straight up and down so i could s/t cork.

your  body is facing the wrong way when you twist
you need to turn left 90° more

yea, like 1 second in, your torso is facing your window when you are beginning the twist, when it should be facing your computer
if you do the same momentum steps, be perpendicular to your computer screen, then twist.

try a standing btwist first before you try with a step. same as grip says your body is facing the wrong way

Ok, I made some tweaks to my run up and general b-twist. Still having trouble landing it, so any help would be appreciated.

looks like you need to spot your landing. i would also say bring you hips up more when you initiate and spin a lil faster

Don't wanna get yelled at, but it's not me, it's my tricking partner Ian Cutlip. I can have one of me up soon though. I hope it helps anyways, his twists are pretty clean.

you can see his back leg chambered behind him just ready to go to work and make him fly.
