Ya I menat the stale mainly. I do mutes sometimes. I think mutes look better than indys.

I like Indy, Tail, or Melon for backside spins.

Indy and Melon backside always. It helps to bring your knees up and keep your body compact when you release the spin. Same goes with Stale and mute on frontside. Back melon is one of my fav tricks.

Nice take off, if you turn your head a bit more and pull a grab in the direction you are moving that last 90 will come. I have the same problem you have I get camera trick fright and cant land my normal shit. Most of my problem is I dont get the same speed I normally do when do my trick I try to slow it down to much for the camera. That last speed check is what that killed you on the video, other then that great looking jump.

You can land anything when that damn camera comes out..... Thanks for the tip bro.

Preface by, you know I can't do this...but...
I feel if you sucked up your legs a little more, even without a grab, that you would increase your spin speed and close up that last 90 degrees with no effort at all.
