Gotta roll back on your tailbone. I can't do it all that well. But from what I've seen/read/heard the trick is to get up close to the bars, and roll back on your tailbone. Next season I'll be all over it. If I'm wrong someone please correct me.

Yeah if you watch the guys who do em real clean they are leanin back, and there legs are up far toes pointed. You are lookin more at the under side of their legs not the inside. Check CBOs spreaders his are tight. It looks hella goofy when people have their legs bent, looks like chicken wings.
