i can only do one, i can't keep going continuously:(

[musictaps]

@danceloverxox0 The most common reason for that is that tappers son't push off as hard or travel as hard on the second one. Push harder and travel more and you'll have better chances:)

I got the double ones with two feet i mean. but I can never get the ones with one foot! HELP!????

[musictaps]

@frenchkitty1000 Leg strength plays a big part. Lots of practice will strengthen your leg and in about 2 weeks you should be able to do it. Also:

1. Travel backwards a lot more

2. Keep the ankle somewhat relaxed

3. Don't point your toes

4. imagine a ball touching the back of your bent knee. When you do the pullback hit the ball hard with the back of your knee (not too hard).

Thanks! I've been trying to do this for six weeks. The lifted toe was key.

@dlbk45 Glad I could help. Took me 3 months to get them when I first started:)

@musictaps thanks :)

@wendyblue7 Make sure your ankles are not too tight. Make sure you are traveling as far back for each one as you can. Don't squish your toes up inside your shoes. Don't point your toes. Keep your legs and ankles a little on the loose side. Good Luck!
