Bar spin

To perform this trick you will want to be going slow at first. Move your feet to the back of the scooter. Then bunny hop as high as you can bending your legs in the air. This will keep the scooter level.  Whilst in the air remove your left hand, and then spin the bars clockwise using your right hand. Once the bars have rotated 360 degrees quickly catch the left bar grip, with your left hand. Then grab the right grip to stabilize the bars before you land. A tip for learning this trick is to try it stationary on the grass first.

Perform this trick at a slow speed.  Make sure your feet are in the sideways position. Turn your torso in the reverse direction that you will be spinning. Slightly point your toes downward so they are putting pressure on the side of the deck. Then twist your body in the direction you are going to spin whilst jumping. Turn your head to see where you are going to land. Bend your legs to absorb impact, land and keep rolling backwards. Try performing this trick up a hill to begin, once you have perfected that. Try it on a flat surface increasing your speed with practise.

Keep it Local!
