I was trying barspins and landed one very sketchy.
so i tried to do them some more and failed and screwed up my ankle.
barspins with 28 wides are hard.
The end clip is tailwhip attempt to one pedal, i keep landing one pedal but its always back pedal wen im meant to be landing on front pedal first

yea its easy to say hop higher n shit but wen ur actualy doing it ur trying to focus on throwing bars, making sure knees dont get smaked by bars, catching bars and i was trying to bunnyhop higher but i dnt have very high bunnyhops and if anyone was actually watching the video i landed it, sketchy but it was still a land
and for a first day of trying barspins i dont think it was too bad
i only got my bike 5 days ago as well

Mate, we're not criticising. You posted it up so normally people give you HELPFUL advice on how to improve.
To improve and get them dialed every time I'd say try them without the hop at first; Just lifting up and spinning the bars. Once you've got them down, then try it with the hop.

lol im not making excuses im jus proud that i got them in a day lol
sketchy but still landed
and i tried to get them cleaner later but i stackd in the vid and my ankle is swollen as hell
sorry for the peoples posts i read wrong im jus angry that my ankle is screwed and i cant ride for awhile
as i was saying after the sketchy barspin i was trying the again but wasnt balancing out the barspin enough.
thanks for the comments

i wasnt really asking for tips and it doesnt seem like the people who gave me tips can actually barspin
i already got tips from a friend who is a whore at barspins and can throw them both ways on flat
but id like some tips on the tailwhip

I know how to backflip. Doesn't mean I can actually pull it off but i know the right way to do it. Does that mean i can't give tips to people who are asking for help on backflips?
So you just posted it up to bragg? Nice

i wanted tips on the tailwhip
i want to learn barspins by myself and people have different ways of doing them
you probably know how to backflip because youve been told my people who can backflip but you probably dont know how it feels to backflip

barspins with 28 wides are hard.
Telling us that you were trying barspins but having trouble with them would normally make people think that you need help with them. Especially when posting it up on a forum where many other people know how to do the same thing and can give you tips.
It's okay if you want to learn by yourself just don't go blowing off people (not in that way :o) if they're trying to be helpful and giving you tips.
and for the record i do know what it feels like to backflip... into water.

ok last night i was in a shitty attitude with a fucked up ankle and i couldnt walk
i probably gave out the wrong message
thanks for the people who were trying to give me tips on them
but i was just posting a vid showing the way i (kinda) learnt barspins
so i guess im bragging
but when people post a mini vid theyre not asking for tips so does that mean theyre bragging? no their just asking what people think of their riding
and backflips are a different type of trick backflips just take confidence and big balls
barspin take abit of time to perfect and have abit more to them
