its like a lincoln with a 180

the set ( for me ) is pretty much just lean my shoulder and look back  ( towards the jump )

pretend there's a soccer ball on the left side of your head and kick it as hard as you can with the outside of your left foot

lotta times it helps to learn flat 3 or "wackflip" japans first. their extremely similar, and i guarantee if u learn those you'll be able to take it to rodeo no problem

no, not at all.

lincoln loop 180 is the best way to think about it when learning rodeo.

pop hard off the jump and just throw your head and shoulders down (to the side) and suck your knees up

if you set it like a lincoln loop it will go into more of an underflip atleast for me. if you focus on doin a 90 and kicking your leg up like there is a ball to your left and going strait back it will set it perfect. atleast thats how i learned

Do a lincoln, but instead of bringing your ear to the same shoulder (like left ear down to left shoulder), turn your body as you lincoln and throw your 0head back and around to sort of try to touch your ear with the opposite shoulder. Basically throw a lincoln with a twist in it.

i heard from a pro (forget who) that whichever way you throw, you sorta want to throw your shoulder off the jump like youre playing football and are gonna crush some tiny kid, throw your shoulder into that little kids face and turn your head to look around your body
