I know this has been discussed before but the thread was lost on the old forum. For anyone who hasn't seen it and has no idea what I'm talking about...

There is one at 0:50 and at 2:03

Anyone have any idea how he does this?

It's a subzero slide. There is no tut. It basically an inside sweep where he floats along a huge section of the floor. don't ask me how he does it, he just can. He's fuckin ace aint he?!

he did a large explanation of it a bit ago, he compaired it to a string being held down at one point and with weight on one end. When you spin the weight it revolves around the part held down and when it is released it shoots off in one direction...something to that effect

Makes sense. On the 2nd one he does at 2:03, it looks like he pushes with his arm to help himself go farhter as well. 1st one at 0:50 doesn't have the best view though. :eh:

It's called a Flash Out...I make references to this in T101.

...and like Anerky said before, there was a post before this one where I explained the mechanics of the "slide-in" transition. I'd repost the information, but I believe it's lost. It's one of those things that's hard to explain how it works, but it's relatively easy to do (depending on surface type).

did anyone save that explanation? can anyone repost it? if not, tis okay, i'm sure some analyzation and messing around should help out...it just sounds kind of interesting due to the analogy above
