Hand glide is a type of spin usually performed while balanced in a one-handed float position. A good understanding of hand glides will help improve your spins and windmills.
Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: As long as it takes to perfect the spins
Here's How:
Start off with hands and knees on the ground, as if you're getting to crawl.
Plant your elbow on your hip with your back slightly hunched.
Now balance on your right hand and push off with the left. Repeat spins until you're able to make several circles.
Tips:
- Strive for excellent balance while doing hand glides
- For beginners, place something slick underneath your hand to spin faster
- Avoid touching the ground with any other parts of your body other than your hands
