"hahaha thanks for the feedback. Whenever I watch my clips I always get antsy because I think of little things I could do that would just help nail the trick. Like setting up and stalling on that Dub cork. Tho in reality I don't think a double cork is that big a staple anymore. Being able to combo fluently is higher on my list"


I'm going to bed.

Nice to see you working kicks...keep at it...

Congratulations, you've gotten good at being bad :good:

I hope you realize that no one will give a shit at all if you get a double cork seen as though you can't even perform a semi-decent tornado or 360. Utter failure.

Wow, your body moves incredibly awkwardly.

Maha
Nov-26-07, 05:58 AM
I wouldn't exactly call his basic kicks utter failure. He has some decent flexibility just a bit awkward with the set ups.

haha man your parafuso is like an xout.

What amazed me about this video was that I got bored of watching you do double backs. I didn't believe that was possible. Do them on grass :good: Your kicks are still pretty gash as tim says. Props on dubcork attempt

"Any tips for the double cork?" ~ towels

I can barely even cork, so I got none. Maybe Stall the twist?

This vid was much more tolerable than your last one Towels but I still found it a little redundant and stupid most of the time (mainly so much of the same tumble track crap). You're a prime example of someone that just wants a few advanced twists but neglects most other parts of tricking. Being clean isn't obviously a priority for you. It's true that you should find your own style and just go with the moves you want but no matter how advanced you get with your moves, if you can't make them look good nobody will give a shit, like me...right now.

For your parafuso, try to throw your first leg up straight legged, and then about at the max height, have your other leg slap into it. There should be no kicking involved. Your parafuso looked like a a little baby who hasnt learned to control its body yet that somehow learned to parafuso.

Het Towels, good work I enjoyed that video. Loved your tumbling skills and those double cork attempts were pretty darn good. Keep working on kicks, they aen't bad, tonnes better than mine but some were a little awkward to watch :tongue: good video none the less.

Also, if your rebuttal is going to be something predictable along the lines of "I'm just trying to express myself not impress everyone" then remember the point in releasing a video to the public: to display your skill. That's the primary purpose of samplers.

If you don't give a crap about how you look while doing this activity then you obviously don't care what others think and therefore have no purpose in uploading them for an audience to see in the first place. You just need to decide why you do what you do and sacrifice getting attention for your videos if others' opinions don't matter to you.

It may sound like I'm making a big deal out of it but it's not my intention. Just food for thought (even though I've said it plenty before).

Sry brandon, but... what??? Poor Manny Brown :dead:

I actually like the parafuso. Pretty much everything else was redundant. If you havn't learned new moves and still want a new samp, think of combos. I kinda miss the antics.

Good job on the tumbling... But get some basics man :agony:.

Thanks for all the feedback.

It was my first video edited using Vegas (took me awhile to build up the courage to switch, but I'm very glad I did)

hahah wtf at the Manny Brown comment (lol brandonn)

When I bring up the first leg in the parafuso, is it supposed to be bent or straight?

I do spend quite a bit of time on the tumble track (it's just fun) first time back at that gym and it's o so nice. I try to even it out with some hard floor tumbling here and there. Unless I land some ridiculous move on the tumble track, don't expect anymore clips from it.

My plan is to land the double cork (Next session or the next) post the vid, then stop making videos for about a half a year(or posting them on TT at least).

I watch Scalco and others throw kicking combo's like crazy, it makes me drool thinking about getting those.

Thanks for the feedback.
