im gonna try one today and i just wanted to see if anyone had any pointers.
probably off the d-up. just pull the handle to the small of my back and leave it there?

dont forget to grab the rope? thats a damn hard trick... good luck

watch some videos of pros doing this, they tend to toss the rope upwards and pull it towards them so they can grab it again.

Make sure you place it there. Dont throw it up b/c it will be above your head when you want to get it back.

I can't even do an Osmosis 3 on a tramp..can't keep the rope in the right place at the right time

on a tramp ti's hard, a good way to pratice would have a friend throw the rope in the air when you are trying a 5 so you can get used to "finding" the handle grabbing and landing. that's a damn cool trick

On a tramp it's pretty easy actually... just spin most of the first 3 with the rope in your rear hand (keeping it behind your butt) then look over your shoulder, let go and regrab it with the same hand. On the water - I'm sure it's a bit harder Wink

savage3221, Osmosis 5's are probably easier then 3's.

i think a osmosis 5 would be really hard off of the d up, even though i have no idea what it feels like to do a osmosis, but i find spinning off of the d up quite difficult
