i am 12 and can vault the box and do handstands but i cant do a 540 and grind very well so can you help me?
What's a vault?
Grinds come with practice--get a practice rail or stall a lot of curbs.
Keep looking over your shoulder for the 540. Focus on an object behind you and try to spin so that you face it...or try fakie 540 first.
fakie spins are usually easier because your head is already looking over your shoulder.

a vault is where you skate along and then use you hands to flip over a box or wall ect
it actually looks really cool if you can pull it off. i have tried it a few times and landed it. i also cant grind but i can 540
the best advice for the 540 is to practice 360's quickly. but dont do it without a grab(method grabs work well) then once you can 360 quickly you should have room to chuck in an extra 180 and...hey presto a 540.
