Maybe you should raise your seat. If your seat is higher, your crotch
will be more likely to stay against the seat, and you probably won't
crunch yourself as much.

What's more difficult to land, your first crankflip, or your first 360
unispin?

I have never gotten hurt that way trying to flip. Sometimes i completly
miss the pedals but only my butt lands on the seat and i end up
bouncing off.

wear padded cycle shorts. they prevent dangleness, thus reducing the
number of times you go crunch in the wrong places.

I would say crankflip definitely. I got a 360 unispin after a day or
two of practise but after months of sporadic practising I'm only close
to crankflips. That seems to be the case for most too.

For about a week and a half i could do crankflips (i cant anymore and i
dont know why) and I have never been able to do 360 unispins. I agree
that actually getting the flip is alot harder than spinning the uni but
i have never been able to land a 360 unispin. I have probably practiced
flips more though and i am probably just weird so I think for most a
crankflip would be harder.

So what's the trick to learning a crank flip?? I started to learn them
the othe day and couldn't even get close. I'll search the forums for
advice but if you have any quick responses it'd be appreciated. Thanks.

Note-I'm trying it on a freestyle uni but might have come to conclusion
that a trails would help out A LOT and be 10 times easier! Ideas?
