Ok. This is how to Tailwhip a hip, for those interested.
First off. When tailwhiping, first find the side your going to kick the tail out.
Step 1. Jump up over the hangers, making sure to try to keep the bike as flat as possible, and kick out the bike hard. Get the other leg out of the road so it doesnt hit cause it canes if it does.
Step 2. As the tail rotates, try to egg beat the hangers to keep the tail spinning.
Step 3. Now the hard bit. As the tail is comming back to you, spot the peddle closest to you and focus on getting that foot back on it. Once you can land it one foot, practice getting the other foot on. This wont be easy as you will want to land away from the bike.
Tips: Lower the seat as it makes it easier and also if your pants get caught on it the result is a painfull burn like bruse. Try this on a tramp bike. It makes things SO much easier as the 2nd foot comes on easier. Keep your brakes on so the peddles dont move as much. Brag when you land one.
Ok, once you have got the whip dialed. Its time to try it over a hip.
Come up to the ramp with a bit of speed not to much, and when you hit it up, kick it and try to use ur bars in a 360 movement,and try to stay over the bike not to the left or roght and look at the pedals and if it dosent work just try it a cuple of times and get the feeling
