Fingerwhip on a Scooter

When scootering, a fingerwhip is a very advanced move. They consist of using your hand, or fingers, to rotate the deck of the scooter 360 degrees around the base of the handle bars. A fingerwhip is like a tailwhip, but the hand is used to spin the deck.

Steps

  1. Use a large ramp or a quarterpipe with enough room to land at the top, launch yourself off the ramp with enough speed to get at least {{safesubst:#invoke:convert|convert}} of air.
  2. Bring the scooter up and reach down at the same time. Make sure to keep the scooter directly under your body.
  3. Use a stiff hand to hit the side of the deck hard.
  4. Lower the scooter back towards the ground. It's important for the scooter to touch the ground before your feet do.
  5. Land with both feet on top of the scooter (that's important) and keep your balance.
  6. Celebrate, but don't get too cocky.
