Title: Spacewalk 1-turn Lunar
Post by: Charlie on 20 January, 2013, 02:24:48
Hello everyone, new to this site. ^^

I was just about ask for tips/advice.. but before I posted, I tried it again and figured it out.

I haven't landed it yet, but I found the correct starting position.

Holding the ken (I hold the edge of the Base Cup for spacewalks) where the Big Cup is facing directly at you (Ken is slightly turned to the right about ~2 cm), then start the spacewalk and do a slight pull (to turn the ken after the spacewalk), then the ken should turn the way you want it to, to land the Lunar (Or even a stilt).

I hope this helps people. Feel free to fill in spots I possibly left out. Thanks!

I created a video to follow-up and visualize the spacewalk to 1-turn lunar.

I had a go at this, and although I didn't land the trick, I felt that the start position you suggest definitely got me closer to getting the spin on the right plane. Thanks.

More practice, more knees!

I'm glad it helped you!

I also noticed when I caught the Tama, I corrected the pull by moving slightly inward. Maybe the pull is also a factor to get the right spin?

I'm not sure, just an observation. Thanks!
