To Hurricane Kickspin, start with one foot behind you,
that's the one you're gonna kick up into the air,
preparing yourself to pivot on the opposite
weight-bearing foot.
Kick that back foot into the air
in the direction of your opposite arm.
As you spin, the arm that's on the same side
as your kick leg will stay parallel to it.
Pay close attention to my weight-bearing foot
that's pivoting on the ground.
My balance is in my toes,
while I lift my back inside wheel
completely off the ground in order to make the pivot around.
My foot spins about 180 degrees,
and I pivot after I kick the opposite foot.
Even though both of my back wheels leave the ground
on my weight-bearing foot,
I'm really focusing on that inside wheel
because that's the more difficult one to pick up.
Start with smaller, less dramatic baby kicks.
And after you get those,
then you can kick a little bit higher and higher
until you're really cranking it.
