| inliners can do it easy, just cause the air they get pumping. And for the dizzy thing, look up how ballerinas spin. They turn their head as they spin to stop getting dizzy. |

isnt spotting what a spotter does when your doing flips or learning to do flips?
cause tahts what my dad called it when he taught me to backflip, "dont do it outside without anyone spotting for you you can get hurt and then no one can help you"
so yah....idk... |

No, because you whip your head around when your neck stops moving lol. There's a way to do it... and yeah, it is called "spotting". I'm not really a ballerina lol... and no, a 1080 is 3x 360º spins
180
360 - 1
540
720 - 2
900
1080 - 3
etc...
Its a little harder to do then a 900º not because of the extra rotation, but the balance you need landing backwards on your pipe. You're spinning really REALLY fast, then the landing to be blind, yet controlled. Some inliners will say that a 1260º is easier then the 1080º due to the fact that it's easier to land forward, but it is arguable.
Either way, I would definately focus on the 900º before shooting for the 1080º... |
