i have the same problem. try watching videos of people on youtube doing them. pay very close attention to detail on how they pump just so you can try and mimick their actions. also check out http://www.bboy.org/forums and they will have a guide or two on how to do crickets and probably a lot of questions on how to pump. just see what people have to say about it. most of the people on that site give really good and helpful advice. i still don't have crickets yet but i don't really work on them much. just be sure to practice and build up your ab strength cuz having strong abs is a huge advantage. good luck!

You might need more arm/leg/ab muscle if you can't pump.

Well try using your legs to help you pump at first then when your use to it try pumping again without your legs helping.

Or just ask another BBoy to help you.
