How good is the crankflip tutorial?

Haven't been motivated. It was a good tutorial, don't get me wrong, but
I just haven't wanted to try crankflips yet.

Thanks to the tutorial I can now zero and do the ledge. Althought I
still can't crankflip, I would say it's mainly because it has not been
my main focus. Despite this, thanks to the prestages I feel more
comfertable when trying one.
Thanks Shaun!

yea but witha tutorial just because its really well done(witch this one
is) doesnt mean that after watching it u can just get them in one try.
i could already do crankflips before i watched it i dont know if it
would have helped me. its just kinda if u wanna learn them ull get
them. but u cant just watcha tutoural on jumping a 20 set ur not just
going to be able to jump a 20. thats an exageration but yea.

Well I haven't seen the tutorial and I can't make a crank flip, so
logically, it must work.

What is a crank flip? I assume you take the whites of three raw cranks
and whip them with some sugar or something? Do you add gin? I'm sure
I would.

Pete, im still trying to figure out what the whole point of this "pole"
was for? Of course the tutorial was good!! Shaun showed us step by
step how to start out and imporve slowly. If people didnt learn from
the tutorial then its their lack of skill.

i watched it, and immediately went outside.

i tried zeroplants, and on my first try landed my genitals squarely on
the saddle, thoroughly crushing myself.

i tried again and again, ending in either squashing my...stuff, or
standing there like a fool with the wheel moving unbearably slow.

Research, um, papers. Business papers, figures, accounts, buy when
they're high sell when they're low, no I duno why I did it. Is it
interesting? Should I follow it up with another poll to gauge how
interested everyone is in the outcome of this poll? You're right
though, it's a good tutorial.

Post a vid of whats happening when you try if you can. Maybe getting
more solid at jumpmounts and suicide mounts would help? Can you get the
wheel rotating at all?
