180 unispin

An old tip had told me to, when doing a 180 unispin, aim for the cranks first. Anyway, today after practicing i landed my first one while holding on to something. Now i know this may not seem like much, but sometimes you just gotta tell soemone of your success. peace out. jon

Another tip I found to be helpful is to use 2 hands. If you were holding on to something you obviously were not. Try it with two hands, freely, and as long as you're padded up and persistant, you might well get it in an hour or less (I did ... though to be fair, I'd given it halfhearted tries in the past many times).

unispin is a pretty easy trick, is just believe in yourself.

Dont think, just do it - no hesitate .
