First Flatland Tutorial arrived: Seat Wrap - Detailed Tutorial !

Hi guys,
Today I bought a new 8MP HD Video Camera and I'm so excited, We have never had one except for one 6 years ago and that taped cassettes.
So now I can record good quality videos and capture fast movement with a great function on the video camera.

So now that I've got it I'm soon going to make the first flatland tutorial, Seat Wrap Tutorial. I've recently just learnt to Seat Wrap but now I'm going to learn doubles etc... There is know Flatland Tutorials I dont think except for maybe one which is the Superman Tutorial but that is in French. I feel up to making this tutorial and In the future I will release more Flatland and some Street Tutorials!

(I should have the tutorial out in 1-2 weeks)

Rite...there could be a problem!

Is there a difference between seat wrap and leg wrap?

Yeah seat wrap looks way harder, I'm practising leg wraps at the moment and thats hard because I take my back foot off and the wheel spins. I just need to get the balance right I think.

You do have the middle of your foot on the crank right?

Yeah, I went and tried to do it again earlier on and got really close but didn't manage to get back on the seat to ride off. I reckon I'll have it soon though

lol I can seat wrap but can't double leg wrap. And I think he means leg wraps. But both are pretty difficult.

It would be nice for a outside roll tutorial or just many slowed down clips of it like spencer did with rolling wraps.
its alot easier learning it first with the foot already on the crank and the other foot on the ground.

Yeah that's how I learnt seat wraps. And I can get them easy from the ground, but I've only ever landed 2 from the pedals. It's really hard to get them consistant coz you have to be perfectly balanced with your first foot on the crank and then you have to put your second foot in just the right place on the crank.

I can do a double leg wrap easy from the ground because you can balance well on the crank but when I try from the pedals I wobble heaps as I put my leg around and lose balance. I find the same thing with step over body varials.

BTW why don't you just log on to your account? lol

So you are making a tutorial on a trick you have no idea how to do, or what it even looks like?
Nope. I guess i just thought it was the rite name or I thought they were the same thing...
