gaaaah *ankle fear* haha

nice attempts guys, but hold it in. your kinda just doing overrotated hypertwists. the hypertwist leg is still reaching for the floor and i cringe when you almost sit on your ankle whilst it's rolled....

Haha, nice, but you've still got a while to go :D

aww, they look seriously hard, something i noticed wushu guys do is they let the second twist go slightly more vertical, it makes it look easier

striagheten your body out when you twist, if you get striaght and laid out you will twist infinitely faster

Munks

What are you guys on about?:eh:

we were getting past hypertwist, can you not see what we are doing, also a double is only an extra 180.....

Ill prove you guys wron....this weekend ill get them...just you wait!

Also, my ankles where find, didnt even feel like they were gonna break :smile:

simon
May-18-06, 01:22 PM
ah but that extra 180 matters a whole lot...

Munks
May-18-06, 01:26 PM
well, just wait...it is my aim now to get them this week:tongue:

I have a couple of attempts halfway through http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2789525782404582344&q=joe+shields onto a mat =)

(at about 1:25). I've been at that stage for a while now. As close to landing em as you may be. actually getting that trick onto your feet takes a looooong time.

Matt R
May-18-06, 01:45 PM
your not twsiting porperly( to munks btw, hez is doing it right)

your ddoing one twist then trying to spin, that doesnt work and looks gay.

Haha I liked the ones where you twisted straight off the ground and went crunch.

Chris
May-18-06, 05:18 PM
the fact of the matter is, you saying your gonna get it this week is wrong, because your a Lonnnnng way off. its a hard move, u cant just get it, you have to work for it

May-18-06, 05:58 PM
ask ne1 taht can double twist you cant get from the stage yoru at now and being able to land it in one week...impossibal

waterboy
May-18-06, 07:14 PM
i'd like to cheer you on for double twist

but it's simply not that easy..trust me i know

even if you were to suddenly get more power and complete the rotation, there is a big difference between landing on just two feet with no hands and landing on all fours. that in itself is a stage that you have to overcome

but still...anything is possible, goodluck!

May-18-06, 11:25 PM
yeh wtf
that wasnt even a bailed hypertwist.

thats abit harsh man!, just cuz you can twist well!:eh:

infact everyones being harsh! give em a break at least there trying it man!

NICE TRY GUYS!!! MUCH BETTER THAN I CAN DO!! XD

yeah...u need to get them much more horizontal:tongue:

Chris
May-19-06, 02:39 AM
Yeah waterboi is very correct, getting the rotation is just the first step, stickin the landing is the challenge. Train hard and im sure you will get it. just not in a week.

Munks
May-19-06, 08:07 AM
Ahhk i get wat ur all getting at....but this very nice "constructive critisiusm" is an extra drive for me to get them....

I will post a video of my attemps after this week and see how i am doing:smile:

The jouney to double b-twist begins

Also though, that day i wasnt exactly at my best...

simon
May-19-06, 08:58 AM
also one day you will get them then another day you may get nowhere near to it
this move can be like that

Hez
May-19-06, 09:23 AM
holy shit, you guys are getting really good haha

that one corkround you did was siiick billy :shocked:

haha, thanks. That wasn't supposed to be a cork round, my legs just spaz on landing. The twistround at the start WAS supposed to be though ; )

Joe's shit is getting absurdly high now. THe front roff back is so smooth and BIG, it's not fair =(

Munks
May-25-06, 01:26 PM
:cool: :cool: :tongue: :smile: :worry: :punched: OH YEAH!!! I GOT THEM!!! .....in the gym though:tongue:

BUT I think that its good enough that ill be able to do it on grass. so this sat ill record it....

HAHA PROVE YOU ALL WRONG!! HAHAH :smile: :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: :dead: :punched:

Matt R
May-25-06, 03:39 PM
i dont believe this till i see a video

shengoikee
May-25-06, 03:41 PM
yah, a lot of people say they can doubletwist and lack any evidence of it haha....

personally, if i could doubletwist (which i cant haha) i wouldnt tell anyone and just release it in a sampler.

Matt R
May-25-06, 03:43 PM
haha yes true dat

or they land it once and think they have it downnn

540guy
May-25-06, 04:19 PM

Give me some PROOF!!! I DONT BELIEVE YOU!!!!!! AHHHHHH!!!

May-26-06, 12:03 AM
Wow, double btwist attempts on grass, you guys sure are gutsy

in the clips i see you almost land those tricks where you're 180 degrees short of an actual double twist (and so u land facing forward). is there an actual name for that twist?

Munks
May-26-06, 04:00 AM
Ok, haha yeah i landed one, but i never said ive got them down....

in the clip i was taking huge set ups because i though it would help...however i now use a really small set up and it works....

Also ill film 1 2moz as its raining now :eh:

:tongue:

edit: DAMN IT...its forecast rain 2moz, may have to wait till sunday! :(

Matt R

pushing back dealines?
a sign of lies
i think so!

Munks

Haha, honestly i did some in my gym....I will try them on grass but is forecast for rain,....i will film it as soon as i possibly can.:smile:

Why is it so har to believe? :eh:

Matt R
May-26-06, 05:18 AM
cos you were doing bailed hypertwists in the vid and double twist is a completly different technique cos it has to be all one twist or its just a stupid btwist gyro

Chris
May-26-06, 05:22 AM
i did 720 twists, yeahhh i do them all the time.. ill post a vid when i can film it........... in about half an hour.

Munks
May-26-06, 05:23 AM
cos you were doing bailed hypertwists in the vid and double twist is a completly different technique cos it has to be all one twist or its just a stupid btwist gyro

Yeah ok, i can see why it may be hard to believe then, but i was doing the set up all wrong....
And i did some in the gym pretty well (from what it felt like) so hopefully ill get it filmed on grass asap for u all:tongue:

Chris
May-26-06, 05:26 AM
but yeah munks ,. if u can do a Real 720 twist, landed. i take my hat off to you. becuase your attempts not long ago were shit

Munks
May-26-06, 05:33 AM
What happened to the dbl cork in the gym you did monkey....

Haha yeah, that was on the sprung floor though, i dowt ill get that on grass any time soon:tongue:

540guy
May-26-06, 09:52 AM
*cough*lies*cough* i need vid proof,like sheep said its very unbelive able to get from teh stage you were at to a good double twist

540guy
May-26-06, 10:08 AM
we still love you

waterboy
May-26-06, 05:19 PM
i'm going to be disappointed if the vid shows a doubletwist landed on all fours

Reza
May-26-06, 06:56 PM
im going to be disappointed if waterboy doesnt release a sampler soon :'(

Hez

Sprung floor shouldn't make much difference for a cork take off. ALl it would really help you with is not wrecking your shit when you bail them.
