Just remember to push off and you should be good.  Getting your feet under you just starts to come naturally.  your next step is to start doing kongs.  Have fun with that one and watch out for you knees.

I had the kong before I did the monkey. But thanks for the input, after some help from jnc2y, I finally got my monkey to an...eh, acceptable level, but once I find some railing out here in middleofnowhere, ohio lol, I will start drilling my vaults on there, at the moment I'm drilling them over a propane tank (one of the huge ones that people have in their backyards) anyway, thanks for the word 8)

The first time I tried monkey I hit my shin on sucker at this photo, in the very front. It is about mid-thigh size for me but I didn't know technique :)

That's a pretty sweet spot you've got there chipset... where are you from again?

That's Freeway park in Seattle :)
