Well I need to see if it works first... And if it works really well then
I want to be the first person to use this technique to my advantage

You want to get those quad flips on flat like your 900 your not showing
us

I neew a technique for slower flips, or I need to learn to catch my
flips early. How hard is it to learn to catch them early? should I try
them of something first?
Does anyone have tips on sex changes? I can flip to wheel and once I am
more consistant with Hickflips (only one so far) and get cleaner 180
flips I may want to try them.

Catching flips early... Flip faster, jump higher and put your backfoot
down on the pedal as you pull the uni up, before you hit the ground.
Feels great when you get it, lots of fun to do aswell.

Sex change tips, do ugly 90/90 hickflip/sex changes till you get the
ful 180.

Everyone's saying that flips are so easy and I've been trying for so
long and I'm completely stuck. I got 540 unispins in 15 minutes and I'm
nowhere near hickflips!

Did anyone else have a really hard time getting their front (kicking)
foot on the pedal when learning crankflips? I think I'm in a bad habit
from doing zero plants. I can stay over the unicycle, kick the cranks
fast, just can't get my front foot on the pedal. So frustrating

I just can't commit. I have the flip and everything perfect, but I get
intimidated and refuse to put my feet on the pedals.

I'll get it eventually.

LOl the only times I've seen anyone ride one footed forwards or
backwards out of a flip they landed with their front foot on the pedal.

I think that's partly my problem. Although I feel like I'm not jumping
high enough. I remember one day I was jumping higher and landed my
front foot just behind the front pedal but since then I've never come
close.
