Slim Chance is a heelside front flip with a frontside 360 handle pass. It is effectively a front mobe: flip axis first, then pass through the middle of the move.
Use a controlled half-cut front flip, go more up than out, throw the front shoulder down, and bring the handle to the small of the back for the pass. Keep the move committed through the landing.
Prerequisites: front flip, frontside 360 handle passes, strong pop, and enough air awareness to pass without losing sight of the landing.
