I have not let up on this trick at any point in the last week, and it is very frustrating!

I have taken all the steps to getting to this trick, even by working on standard x-foot forward fork glides/ steam roller.
also worth a mention is x-foot  (double footed) standard fork glide/ steam roller. 

So YES, I can get my foot on the peg!

Maybe my next question is to who can do them is;

Is it a commitment Or a timing issue problem?-Like the standard regular foot whiplash-


Thanks for all the info and help.

Tim

I tried the x foot hang 10 a bit from a x foot whiplash and it's not so hard. I think I could land 2 whiplashes, but have just practiced them like 2 times. So maybe some day. The weather is getting nastier so I'm even lazier.

But the key to this is:

rolling x footed.

TRY X FOOTED HITCHIKERS!

I'm very comfortable with x foot stance now after dialing x foot hitch.

whats ayone going to tell you ythat you dont alreayd know.... its your body...your bike..your mind... youve been trying it for a while...maybe you felt a few that felt like you were getting close... have patience ...keep trying... good luck

peace

Thanks for the ankle death tip.

 I have been able to do that trick for 15+ years. That trick I have always considered "the dumbest trick that will take you away from riding".so I did a few bitd and moved on. 

When I rode with my friend Brant the other day I threw out one or two.  So yeah, I do have all my "building blocks" in order(and maybe I am talking to myself here) but , again maybe it is a time vs foot weight problem.   

I'll keep this updated.

Thanks for the tip again,

Take Care.

Ohh christ

Martti,

Thanks ever so much for your reply. 

A lot of what you wrote makes complete sense. Ha.

In the last few months I have felt so frustrated about this trick, but with-in time I know a single will come then a double.   

One very key point that made me nod my head was when you mentioned "leaning to the left/right " in witch ever way you whip it.  I found this a refresher of the same idea and mind set you have to have.

When I was riding with a friend over the winter months , we both where working on backwards standard whiplashes(from fork glide/fire hydrant position).  He was doing about 3-4 and I was not even getting 1 completed  ha.
 Your leaning technique was best explained by having your upper body at 4pm then 6pm. It didn't make sense at the time, but once I completed one, two came, and now I am at three on a good day. 


I have spent the better part of 1/2 the summer working on building up to this trick(x-foot whiplash) , so I know it is only time before I get one, then two, and just maybe three on a very good day.  Ha.

Well, even though I am struggling with one at the current moment. I will eventually get it=)
Because I didn't-and you can't learn multiples with-out learning singles.


Thanks ever so much for putting me back into perspective.   Ha

Take Care, and thanks again. 

Tim

you ever lost one ball up into your stomache doing that cross foots sh*t?

it kind of turns you into a female.

well thats what I hear...never happened to me actualy.

While single x ft whips are tricky, they really aren't that hard.  Alex and I learned them around the same time, and like he said, its all about the timing for when you go to step over with the other foot.

Jim, may I ask what HTA you have on your frame?  I just switched to a 73.5* HTA and it seems really good for this type of tricks/riding (cough*KGB*cough).

See my recent video, I do a x ft whip out of a jumplash to inside.
