Yeah…I kind of felt that this version (360 in to basic stall) wasn’t really the basic stall…

Okay so here is my freeform entry! It’s a bind I found that probably has existed already so I’m going to avoid naming it or anything but I like that it goes airborne! Plus an extra throw and bind after just to show that the first bind was clean.

Edit: replaced the vid so it has the sponsor image phew!

Sorry for the spam. I swear I haven’t even started drinking yet.

Here is the 360 with the appropriate logo at the start of the page so it counts.
