How to Heel Whip on a Scooter

Scooter · Heel Whip

Similar to a tailwhip, but the deck is kicked forward with the heel rather than backward.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Hop. Bunny hop to get air.
  2. Kick forward. Use your heel to kick the deck forward so it spins 360° around the bars (opposite direction to a tailwhip).
  3. Catch. Watch the deck come around and land your feet back on it.

Tips for success

Heel drives the deck forward; tailwhip is kicked backward. Commit to the heel kick and stay over the bars.
