hey this is forrest rackard i was wondering if any body had any tips on
the crankflip besides shauns video. its helped me a little bit but i
need to know how to kick the cranks harder. i also feel like im not
doin it correctly( the kick)
any suggestions?

Can you do doubles and triples on the zero plants yet?

Being able to do those will help you a lot with a regular crankflip.

BEsides that, just keep practicing.

double and triple zero plants might help for some people but i think
they are harder then crankflips (i can do single flips and double flips
but i cant even do single zero plants🙄 ).

Crankflips are one of the tricks were you can really only get so much
advice. Alot of it is practicing so your body can figure out the
motions. Shaun's tutorial is probably about as you good as your going
to get. Although concentrating on removing your non-flipping foot from
the pedal as you flip might also help, and dont kick down, but kick
down, out, and back.

If you have a camera, try to post a video of a few of your attempts as
it will be easier to tell what the problem is.

Hope that helped some.

Thats the oppesite for me, I can do zero plants easily, off edges and
whatnot, I need to try one into a grind. But, the crankflips are harder
to me.
