TuckOne of the easier tricks in the book. Good to learn as your first trick
On the top of jour jump bring your knees up. Also bring your chest forward to meet your knees. You do this because when you bring your knees up you create a rotation, when you bring your chest forwards you stop the rotation. When you can do this just grab hold of you knees or knee bar. Voila, your first tuck jump.

PikeThis trick is very similar to the tuck but far more difficult. First of all there is a question of flexibility. The more flexible you are the better the trick will look. On the top of your jump bring your legs forward, keep them straight. At the same time bring your chest forward to meet your legs. Because the legs are straight they will create much more rotation than the tuck. Make sure to bring your chest far enough forward so that you don’t end up on your ass.

Star
Spread your legs as far apart as possible without taking the up in front of you. Keep your hands somewhere in between straight up and to the sides.

Straddle
This trick is something in between a “star” and a “pike”. Bring your legs up in front of you like in the “pike”. At the same time split your legs as much as possible. Remember to bring your chest so you don’t create a backwards rotation. The hands can either touch the toes or put them as far down as possible. Most people are more flexible this way than in the pike or the “star”. With a bit of flexibility this will be one of you nicest position jumps. It is a good idea to stretch before trying this trick so that you don’t pull a muscle on the inside of your legs.

Giant leap
On the top of your bounce, bring one foot forward and the other one backward. Most people are naturally more flexible on one leg than the other so make sure you know what side will look best. If you bend the back leg you will look a lot more flexible. It might be a good idea to stretch a bit extra before trying this trick.

Back grab
Do the same as you do in the “Giant leap”. If you have your right foot forward twist your body to the right. With your right hand grab the left spring behind your back.
The longer you hold it the nicer the grab.

Back scratcher Bring your heals up behind you, twist your body to the right.

Checking (for gum) Bring your heels up behind you as high as possible. Twist your body to the side, look over your shoulder and try to see the underneath of your stilt hoof. It’s good to lower the knee bars for this trick so that you can bend your knees more.
