How to Tail Whip a Scooter
This scooter trick involves giving your scooter’s deck a 360-degree spin as you fly through the air .
You’ll need to master your ‘kick flick’ before trying to do this while jumping, so try spinning your scooter deck as you stand still first to get it right.
- Before you try to flip your scooter deck around in the air, practice flipping it around as you stand still. Use your arms to move the deck around (a bit like a mixing bowl!) and use your foot to kick the deck around.
- Grab your handlebars tightly and make sure both feet are on the deck.
- Once you're feeling confident enough to try it while moving, push once or twice and get the right amount of momentum, then combine a big bunny hope with your 'kick and flick' technique.
