Nice, you're almost there! Try spotting your landing sooner.

[erufukami]

NO! DO NOT DO THAT!!!!!

If anything try landing LESS. Let the landing just happen, don't try to do it. The reason you can't get that last little bit is because you're stopping just enough to try and land... that's causing you to stop rotating enough, send you off balance and cancel the landing. So just.... let it happen more than make it happen. Ya know?

[tompolo]

any more adivces?

[karatekid]

Try not to land... Great advice :eh:

[Skippy]

Your last attempts were much better, dip a bit lower before you take off and well yeah....go on youtube and study some wushu double b twists and check their techniques.

You're retarded. He never said that. His point was to not FOCUS on landing.

[karatekid]

Yeah, that will definitely make him land.

throw your left leg up higher for a greater lift so your body is parallel then twist.

[erufukami]

If you focus on the landing it makes you change your form which does two things.

1. Stops your rotation. If you don't rotate enough, you AREN'T going to land.

2. CHANGES your rotation. Sticking your legs out to land changes the center of rotation and throws your weight into a different direction, MANY times puting your center of balance WAY off your feet.


And just FYI, I land these about 9/10 now. Had to work through the trial and error just like everyone else.

[Munks]

punch your left arm up and round to tuck in harder... almost like you trying to hug a massive horizontal bar....

thats what i did and i got em consistent :good:

Okay, different things work for differen people. But you still have to focus on the landing, just like every other part of the trick, everything has it's time.

[Dantess]

Just like to stress what KGB said, make sure you kick that back leg high before you twist. At the moment you are leaving it low and twisting with little height. Good luck with the move! You are close already! :good:

Indeed you are correct. Different things work for different ppl. I agree. But in my preference..... I think the focus of a trick shouldn't be the landing. It's really good IF you land it, but I think the trick during execution is the focus... otherwise you get a crappy looking cork but... ope... he landed it.


But yeah, different things work, but I wouldn't focus too much on the landing or you'll come out too early. Think of trying to hyper it... just.... don't.

kami is right, sometimes ondbltweist when u focus too much on the landign u will undercut your rotation.
