butt down.
and get more pop and mor force into it.
i mean my 5cabs are more like tap fullcabs with an 180 out but i count it as a 5cab so hope that kinda helps
i would say get fullcabs down no pedal pressure first. then the 5 cab
I’m in the process of learning them too. From time to time I do like 400-450 so I’m still in the process.
What helped me going over 360 with body position and bit better pop was trying to learn manual to 360 as I think you need to have similar high pop, and body position to do 5cabs but there is no fakie part
You’re almost there it’s just timing the pop on your forward foot
Your first attempt on the video is a landed 5 cab. Scrappy but landed. Just keep doing them in different place other than flat ground
Your cabs look just like mine lol.
Pull up sooner in the fakie and if you’re going to “cheat” it (which most people do), cheat the first half cab. Do it with your back tire still on the ground, front still going up, then when you get forward again, pop while keeping that rotation and the 3 will come around.
Momentum is also a big thing. If you notice, you kind of stop dead in your tracks. I’m pretty sure that’s because of a combo of too much pedal pressure and too much sharp pivot before you pop. Lifting that front tire sooner will help mitigate it because you’re not “squeezing” the bike sideways, if that makes sense. Remember your goal is to pivot if you imagine what it looks like from directly overhead looking down, not to turn. The longer that front tire is on the ground initiating that turn, the more your whole bike turns instead of pivots.
