I can't do helicopters. none of the tut's help because they show you each hand position, which I do fine, but not how to actually use them for the trick. as a result, my helicopters aren't straight and are usually out of sync. could someone tell how to do this trick?

to get them straight and in sync just takes practice yo.. if u can do the hand positions than u just have 2 work it over and over 2 get the flow.. doing this in front of a mirror will help big time..

i have the same problem. trying to come up with some ideas on how to improve other then just practice. ill let you know if i come up with any break throughs in this area

there's no easy way around a helicopter.. learn the basics and practice the hell out of it.. altho if u somehow find an easier way i'd b curious 2 c it..

i learned helicopters not to long ago ad frakly i dont have a problem with em lol. i find it easier if you hold less of the glowstick in your fingertips. this allows you to have more movement in the sticks which in turn allows you to keep em straight.i only hold em wiht my pointer, middle and thumb. i also let my elbows out farther. like when my right glowstick is goig down.. right elbow is up higher while left one is lower.
