As probably the least flexible member on TT, I was wondering who you guys think is the least flexible among the "pro's"/good tricksters.
(Don't move to flexibility forum, this is about people that trick, not about flexibility)

You're nowhere near the least flexible haha. I'd say Kjer is probably the least flexible, or Dpitlock, judging by what I've seen =P although Kjer does some huge kicks, sometimes he has like crooked legs on a number of his moves, so whether this is due to inflexibility or personal preference I'm not sure.

KJER's not inflexible lol.
Anyways, inflexibility looks crap in the end.

Ryan Rempfer doesn't seem very flexible, yet his tricks are awsome

Anyone who can hook/wheel kick at or above head level isn't inflexible lol.

I would definitely say kyle mclean is the leastflexible decent trickster (unless anything has changed since txt07)

WHAT no way that nigg is inflexible. I've seen his Jacknives haha there is major splittage cuz. CUZ!
i'm not flexible. lolz.
+pitlock has a defect that makes his joints stronger or something therefore making it harder for him to stay flexible.

I'm not very flexible atall.

Yeahhh, he said his tendons are like 5 times stronger than normal peoples but it makes it mega hard for him to stay flexible.
Ah well, I wonder if he'll be someone who could like consistently hyper cork or hyper snapu and not be bothered

Your jacknife begs to differ young man.
And simon's flexibility has been seemingly increasing, you can even tell by his ever so beautiful boxcutters.
I haven't seen much of Pitlocks stuff involving kicks so I dunno. But if he really is that inflexible, he's even more the MAN!

Well my dynamic fexibility is ok, but my static is rubish!

Oct-09-07, 02:46 PM
Eh who cares dynamic is all that matters for tricking haha.
I can easily kick above my head with straight legs (avatar lolz), but am quite off the ground for splits hahaha. UGH I need to stretch more!

Oct-09-07, 02:49 PM
Yeah i stretch every day for say a week, but then i get out of routine and stop for ages. I can never seem to keep a routine =[.

just stretch more brandonn u fucking bitch lol.
I am the most unnaturally flexible person ever, its even harder when u have alot of muscle mass to get flexible, it has taken small progressions over the last 2 yrs to where i can pretty much do a cold split now. Over the past 6 months ive seen the biggest progression, stretching 2-3x a day, sitting in splits while sitting against the wall, proping my legs up against doors, using the juji stretch with the towel while im on my back for hamstrings, and just sitting in splits on the floor, slow kicks too! Ohhh and i dont recomend a heavy split session or anything before training, in fact the last time i do a heavy stretch b4 trick is the night before, so i can heal up, and then light stretch b4 training.

Its hard for met to stay flexible but I am somewhat flexible. If I dont continuely stretch Ill lose it quick. I'll post a video up in a couple days of some kicking clips. Ill even throw a in one handed raiz swingthru cork split. I gotta badass 900 too!!
Take that bitches.
I just have more fun spinning. Im a martial artist so Im like obligated to kick.
Look at my avitar and thats just an aerial.

Hahaha...the fact that you can joke about something so horrible makes you "the man of the day" :smile:
It looked liked you :dead: the moment you hit the ground.

haha thanks dude =D
we were laughing about it pretty much straight afterwards. i'm not too bad now actually. no pain apart from if i really wrench my ankle round. i'm not risking tricks for another coupla weeks. just plenty of weight training and stretching.
and forum posting ahaha
edit: yeah we found it hilarious that it looked like i died! i actually posted saying i died.... it was pretty distasteful because some people actually believed me and i had to apologise to them all individually. thankfully my parents didn't find out about that haha
:wicked:
nah but serious..
personaly it makes me look slower ( besides that i want a kick that can kicks somebodys head off instead of a gracefull nice lookin kick that cant even knock out a lil kid....and i cant do all the kicks clean..i can do splits but not in a way u should do ure sidekick..
I kinda wanted 2 look like Chris balulua when i just started
couse i was facinated by his raw and ''unclean'' style back in 2002so i kinda copied his way..
and personally i dont like it 2 clean just doesnt do it for me..]
i think the ''Big Toe Sampler''
I just made last week was the cleanest ive ever did.( couse of the pain i went thru tricking on a injured foot i took my time this time 2 execute moves a lil better )

Simon: bullcrap man your boxcutters are beautiful. There's def some splittage in them
Sessh: are you flexibile?
Mike: I am man I'm workin on it. I need to start doing the towel juji stretch though

Well, today, I was watching a Sesshoumaru sampler and I believe I saw him do a double cork and land in the splits.
I am without a doubt the most inflexible trickster to have ever walked the earth.
I fail to fulfil the good criteria too though so i'll fuck off haha.
haha, i can somewhat trick but recently I stated it looks like crap, mainly because I stopped stretching, but that was due to an experiment.
You can still trick pretty decently without stretching, but it's not worth it.

He can't double cork so i doubt it. He can MA split, i don't know about "real" ones though

I'm pretty sure i said 'shit'
Story:
So yeah, i'm in some restaurant in Texas and i ask Sesshoumaru 'Wait... i've never seen you double cork'
'I can't do them' He replied.
'You're SHIT!' I screamed
With as much love as possible
EDIT: You need to send me this clip Dave

Oct-11-07, 06:28 AM

my static flex is alright at the moment, but my dynamic flex seems to be getting worse with age... when i started tricking i could split sideways and with my left leg in front, now im about 4-6 inches off the floor both legs and maybe 10-12 off the floor with sidesplits, its not my abductors though its my gay hip flexor being a massive wang all the time...
and just for pete: shit
