Flipcast is gone lolz. Now I've remade it into something better and hopefully much more helpful.

I was hoping to have more tutorials and articles written by the deadline, but I think the ones now should be sufficient for the release.

I hope you like the changes and I hope the site can help you in some way. If you want to contribute just add external resources to the database for the various skills, or submit tips for any of the skills. Also if you find any bugs, please report them. :smile: The site might go up and down due to my host upgrading stuffs.

I chose the date for the release because it's the day I'm graduating high school (gonna go off to that in a few minutes); if you can guess where I got the inspiration for choosing such a date I'll give you a cookie.

Enjoy!

(Sorry no new sampler yet :sad:)

Your tutorials have helped me a lot in the past. The new updates look great!

There was a little error I found in here though. The sideswipe pictures are a little out of order. Just wanted to bring it to your attention in case you haven't noticed it yet.

I love how your back tuck tut is so brutally honest and really gives help/advice to beginners! It's great the way you explain it... I remember the first back tuck I landed on grass was so arched, and so low, I was so disappointed with it that I didn't do them again for weeks/months and had to end up re-learning the back flip.

Looks like a great site dude, well done!

Thanks man. It took me a while to realize I can't teach people who don't know how to do a move the absolute pro way to do it because it's too hard to just jump into it haha.

Awesome, looks cooler then flipcast.
Could you make a sampler though, I'd love to see those clean tricks in a combo.

Awesome stuff, loved the raiz tut especially. And my god how true is the "Random Cartwheel Guy" article!! Excellent site, I'll definitely be visiting very often.

EDIT: Agh the videos arent working, when I click I just get:
"Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/skilz99x/public_html/global.php:2) in /home/skilz99x/public_html/get.php on line 25"

Not sure if you noticed this yet...

Very clean site, nice!

edit: I just read this
So don't even think about getting or using one of those stupid Ab Lounges to "tone" your ab muscles because if you do I will personally stab you.

hahahahaa

I took a proper look and thought the tutorials were very good and very clear but lacked detail, I think this has been updated though because on second look it seems fine. Nice job!

Ahhh to be honest I haven't looked at the site yet, but I've got the window open so when I get home I'll take a look.
HOWEVAR I felt I should post because
1. I hate it when people look at something and don't comment on it
and
2. You're good and helpful and very analytical, so I'm certain it shall be le great!
yey!

Ahhh! I found that site a few days ago, then lost the address. I was greatly depressed, because I find your style of guides to be very helpful. I think I made this thread appear with my mind.

I always knew about flipcast but never really took the time to look around there. Now I have a fresh start at looking at your new creation though so when I explore this one more I'll let you know what I think. Seems cool so far.

:flesh: Yea yea I know but I got injured haha. Stupid ankles!
LoL sorta funny, I made a teaser more than a year ago but never released a sampler for it. Gyuk gyuk gyuk.

Thanks and thanks! Fixed!

Thanks, mwahaha yes I hate that. And I won't lie, there is an Ab Lounge in my house. :dead:
I took a proper look and thought the tutorials were very good and very clear but lacked detail, I think this has been updated though because on second look it seems fine. Nice job!
Thanks! To be honest as much as I type and think of techniques and strategies I find I am not that detailed in explaining it in text no matter how much sense it makes in my head.

Narrated tutorials on the way! (Hopefully)

Gee thanks Scott, I'm sometimes guilty of the whole look but don't comment thing haha. Hopefully it'll be helpful even to the BEAST.

Haha, the only thing I can say to that is:
Nice!

To be honest if I heard of a website named flipcast I probably wouldn't be too keen on looking at it. Thanks, I am eager to know what more people think of the current currentness.
i like it :good: gotta start learning that inbetween raiz! thx :good:
Haha, it's easy! Go for it. And thanks!

And thanks to you all again. I started writing a new article today but I lost interest half-way through, as always lol. Making this site gives me even more respect for Juji, because now I realize there's SO MUCH TYPING!!!

I was browsing the tuts, and it occurred to me that i was having a hard time with having to scroll down to scroll sideways, scroll up to see what was going on, and so on. I think it would be better if it was a link to a new full window/tab or something...

Or it could just be me having this problem :tongue:

edit: Yes it's probably just me. I've got 2 inches taken off the browser with all sorts of weird junk like Greasemonkey. :(

Other than that, great job!
