I’m in the same boat as Bob. I can give good tips on the stuff I’ve learned, but I’m still early in the process, too.
Anything you want tips on in particular? In general, start with the easy stuff (like IUF levels 1 and 2) and work up from there. It all comes with practice. If you want to work on it long enough to get through the learning curve, you will.
Bob - on unispins, I liked this tutorial a lot. I found that no-footers were the hardest part of it for me and I had to back up and just work on those for a while. I did seat-in no-footers just barely leaving the pedals at first, then worked up to doing SIF no-footers and jumping high. After I was comfortable with that, I was able to land my first 180.
One other thing you might try. It looks like you don’t want to land on the pedals (which is understandable). You might try doing a couple of jump mounts where you deliberately miss with one foot, just to convince yourself that it won’t really hurt that bad (wearing your leg armor, of course). When you go for the 180s, you’re going to land like that a lot, and it helps to get over the fear of it early.
BTW - I did my first kickup mounts and my first hops over a picnic table (via the benches) this week. Thanks for the ideas of fun stuff to work on.
