That was my problem. Thats why Im on that squishy stuff. I just decided
to go for it. Its not all that hard. I found that I land it most times
even without spinning the cranks fully.
And my phone rocks!! : ) :P

Someone start another crankflip or unispin competition cuz i reeally
need something to push me into working hard.. 🙁
I aaalmost have unispins.. I can land my feet on the pedals, but my
seat flies forward for some reason.. And im way too scared to even try
crankflips because I dont think I will spin it fast enough and get hurt
:o
