Double Grabbed 5

Stephan · Guest

Hey folks, my new crew I've been riding with has assigned one of my new tricks to learn a double grabbed 5. I can do a slob TS 5, but feel that another grab would be nigh impossible(I can also land HS 5's). I was thinking about doing a HS Slob/Stalefish 5 off the double up. I get pretty big off the d-up. Do you think I should concentrate on getting compact & passing below my ass behind my knees? Unfortunately I'm going to Europe & can't try for a few weeks. Thanks in advance.

Yeah Id say dont spend big jumps on trying to rush through a double grab. You will know when you can sport a double grabbed 5, Id start w/ a hs 3 mute/indy and go from there!

i pass it under my ass, just cause that's how i learned. Think it would make my spins easier to grab? I haven't tried brabbing any spins yet. I really want to throw a grab on my TS 5, which one's the easiest?

ts slob/nose/method/melan 5, pass handle, then either tailfish/tail/tindy on the way down.

oh yea, to hell with what anyone says about tailfish or tindy. some of the sickest grabs ever are tindy (as seen by d. harf) and by doing a 180, tailfish/tindy becomes sw slob/method/melan.
