Actually this is my Gainerflash help thread. And by gainerflash help I mean that I am the one needing the help, not giving it.

Please?

Just threw a cork in there for those who keep telling me that I need a gainerflash to cork.

[Tony Nguyen]

yeah i got cork before i got gainer too. i remember giving u tips on a gainer already tho...

[Spyder_V]

I know, but I can't make them work :cry:

Mostly, I need moral support.

[Spindeldjur]

Shit.. this fucking computer wont work with movieclips... =/
You know, when i get home, i will help out if i can ^^ and if not tenthousand people have allready helped you..? Then it might be a little unnessesary? Dont you think ^^)
-fred på jorden- ;D

[Spyder_V]

I need all the help I can get. I suppose I'll divshare it as well for those of you who dislike youtube.


EDIT :: Ooooor... my internet will be gay and not let me use divshare...

[Tony Nguyen]

well as far as i see it u set off really powerfully but u need to hold it all the way thru u kinda relax towards the end of it. just keep at it and try harder to keep that speed and power all the way thru and youll get them in no time

[Spindeldjur]

^^
-youre the best!-

[Birch]

can you do a normal gainer?

[Spyder_V]

YAY! That's the kind of support I need :smile:

I don't understand why my body relaxes shortly after takeoff. I swear it feels to me like I am kicking all the way through, but my kick stops...

In response to Spindeljur: Me or Tony? Tony IS pretty freaking awesome.

In response to Birch: Yes, I can do a J-step tucked gainer and a regular walking gainer... I just can't flash them.

[Birch]

Have you tried flashing it with a different setup then, cos the one you are using here looks a little slow.

[brandonn]

here is the problem

your arms die


you have such a powerful lead in but as soon as you jump your arms just die isntead of reaching ALL THE WAY UP

you need ot make sure your arms are totally extended at take off, with your elbows by your ears.

center of gravity ftw

[Spyder_V]

CoG ftw indeed. I shall try all of the tips I receive tomorrow and post the difference (if there is any).

[Spindeldjur]

Spyder: To you man! ^^
Yeah, Tony is great! And he knows it, and ive told him! ^^ long time ago!
Now i thought it was your turn to hear it ^^
And you know what? The word Spyder is related to Spider, and Spindel (swedish word) means Spider. So.. you know i think youre worth it! ;D

[searchsoul]

is that some solitary confinement room?

[Hez]

Kick FUCKING hard. Like you're actually trying to kick somebody standing just behind your left shoulders in the face really really hard.

And hold your hips higher in the takeoff.

When my camera charges I'll go outside and film a couple of examples, I'll try to mimic yours then show how I fixed it.

Incidentally I had exactly the same problem a few months ago, just clean lost my gainer flash to the same position as yours.

[Spyder_V]

Thanks Spindel.

Seachsoul: Pretty much...


Hez: I love you too much. I can't wait to see this.

[johnnyg42]

dont look for the ground so early. Try watching your foot for a little bit as it goes up, and then once your upside down start pulling you chest UP! while at the same time still kicking through as hard as possible. good luck dude, and nice cork!

[Dragonic MiKe]

What a conundrum.

You get a good split and it seems like you should land it no problem but then you fall. :(

Maybe try thinking about jumping higher or something. :/

Also... Give me your cork. :ogre:

[Spyder_V]

Thanks for the tips (and cork compliment). I will go to the rec later today and record some more attempts with all of this in mind.

[biyak]

i remember that kaos told me some thing that might help!

shout!
when you go up shout!@# " mother fucker you are mine!!@ bitch!@# "

probably you'll not land though you will feel hell lot more power do second time and you land ^__^ ( shout in the second time too )

[WilliamT]

to me, it really looks like you just need to keep commited the whole time, and near the end just pull your leg underneath you hard and say either i land or i totally eat it(dont even think about putting your hands down). thats exactly how i got gainers. but i'm sure this doesn't work for everybody so umm idk haha. just putting in my 2 cents.

[Spyder_V]

I like my face... but it sounds pretty good.

[Hez]

Hahaha ok my first attempt at making a help video came out hilariously so I think I'll post it anyway. Bare in mind I didn't think at all before making this, I just got up and went outside with a camera about 10 minutes after waking up and said the first things that came into my head. THe audio is also shoddy. Hopefully at least one of the things i say is comprehensible/useful though, that would make it all worth it ;)

[Hez]

Ok that was so bad I;m gonna make another one, a good concise one. That might actually be useful.

[Spyder_V]

Wait. let me watch this first =P

EDIT :: Hahahaha!! That was freaking awesome!! Much much <3s for making me a dedicated tutorial. I see exactly what you mean and what I'm doing wrong.

I loved your bail hahaha. Made my crack up and almost die laughing!

[Hez]

oh i'll leave that up for comedy value don't worry.

I watched your new clips after making a second video and realised your takeoff and first part is pretty much fine tbh. You just need to hold the shape for the whole thing and reachfor the floor with your kicking leg. Possibly actually concentrate on height less, you're going really high compared to mine haha, just not getting enough rotation. arch your back a bit perhaps.

[Spyder_V]

Okay, sounds good.

Comment on your vid ^^
