    Hey on shauns crankflip, I dont know if i do the zero plant right. I
    can get it to where i can Do a triple and land it everytime, landing on
    one foot and all that, but when he goes to step two, is it natural not
    to be able to do it right away, because i get one really slow crank
    when i go to do a footplant crank flip. I dont know, i dont think i am
    using the wheel but im not sure. You guys/girls have any tips on how
    to spin the cranks while jumping, ive watched his video a hundred or
    more times.😕

    No other advice other than just practice really - you'll get it
    eventually 🙂 . Though I'm surprised you do triples on zeros and then
    nothing in footplants - are you sure you're not camping when you're
    landing triples on zero plants?

    Don't buy a stupid dwarf. It's not big and it's not clever.

    IF you can, record a clip of you doing the foot plant and zeroplant and
    we can see what you are doing better. =p

    Other than that, I think you are so used to zeros, where you just have
    to jump one foot to the ground then hop off, that it feels weird to
    actually jump onto an object to do a foot plant.

    Try to find a staircase or a non-busy street and use a curb to
    footplant onto.

    Once you are used to actually jumping off and doing a footplant and
    getting a flip in with the tiny curbs and steps, then try doing it off
    benches and higher objects.

    What's a crankflip?

    p.s. Did you know this P.s. is in the wrong spot?
