Does anyone have any tips on starting the rotation. Everytime i try them i just throw a tantrum. I can do them on the tramp tho.

not from experience here, but if you are left foot forward, to start the rotation, bring your left bicep up and over your face after the pop.

i don't get how you can throw them on the tramp and not translate it to the water at all. Maybe you're just not committing to it when you get inverted.

Never tried one, but I was thinking about it this weekend... From what I've read - Pop the tantrum and throw your rear shoulder a little bit harder than you usually do - at the same time turn your head to look over your rear shoulder. Then pull your lead arm across your face and and keep it up for longer than you think (until your body comes all the way back around).

I've read that it's a two-stage trick - you pop then initiate it by throwing your head and shoulder. I've never tried them on the tramp, but I can't do backflips on the tramp and I can do tantrums, so I think I'm just gonna go bust a nut and throw it... Hope this helped some... good luck bro!

K, I've posted some instructions on about the last five or so posts on whirlybirds. There are plenty others with good advice in those too. Use the search my friend, use the search.

i can get whirlys and whirly 5's on the tramp no prob.. just go up like u would a normal tantrum as u start to flip turn ur head back and bring your lead arm up across your face, try having a little slack in the rope that usually helps, cus if u have too much tension its harder to get around. look on the trick tips section on this site and read that it has pics and everything on how u should do it, takes a hell of a lot of practice just hang in there youll get it
