PLEASE HELP!!!

[GSimp]

Hmm...you should definitely concentrate on improving your basics kicks before moving on to more complicated moves.

[Asura]

Looks like a regular Feilong to me...keep working the extension on your kicks man, and keep working your Raiz.

It's more like a pop 540, since you don't extend your first kick at all..

On your raiz: Your foot should travel OVER you,not horizontally...try kicking it over you...

My thoughts too.

[kamikaze!]

dude seriously...BASIC KICKS

[Shadow5217]

There is some tutorial around here somewhere that Juji gave out showing all the basic kicks and how to work on them. For the Raiz you got to hook the back leg diagonally over you head and arch you back.

i agree with GSimp, you should really work your basics before you move onto harder stuff, becuase its just not going to work well.

On the Fei-Long, you need to work your 360 cresc alot more so you can define both kicks in it. You can really take your time when doing these, eg:

if you want to do a proper Fei Long cross, make sure you can absolutely piss a jumping hook kick and still be able to rotate your body over for the round kick.

With the Raiz, you're just not jumping at all. Its not a move that you fall into, you have to LIFT up into it.

Oh shit andy, that seriously one of the best feilongs i've ever seen.

And yeah, everything has pretty much been said.

[TKD_Andy]

haha no way man. My fei long has never been that good.

Shengoikee's is far better than mine, and thats just one of MANY thats better than me!

[tuareg]

For some reason i like it a lot. Its like "look kids, now this is a feilong" haha. Both kicks look so legit, its perfect :p

[TKD_Andy]

thanks man :smile:

[Dragonic MiKe]

I agree with tuareg.

That feilong had a nice rythm to it, Andy.

ok i drill basic kicks everyday.. my kicks look sloppy.. but this video was mainly for the raiz.. i know i have to kick over my head.. and i feel like i do.. but when i watch it.. its not above my head at all..its disappointing.. im like yes! i finally have it! then i watch it and it looks the same.. i do drill basic kicks a lot.. but due to pulled muscles my outside left kick (hook & crescents)
were complete shit in this vid..i know that.. forget the feilong cross.. when im healed fully i'll re-tape some but advice for raiz.. and tkd_andy when you say its a lifting move i somewhat understand.. but can you elaborate on that more..it may help a lot..

[k-slash]

Those were just bad pop tornado`s.

Just try thinking of going into it like a gainer...don't lower your upper body, use your arms to pull yourself up, look back and let the take off foot follow the same path as your head. Just imagine basketball players that jump up from one leg when they're doing a dunk...now freeze the guy on the first foot already off the floor and the second still on the ground. That's what your body position should be on a raiz takeoff, only with the first leg straight and your body arched back a bit. Remember most of the power for the move is in the take off foot. Kick it really hard over!

Hope this helped...

thank you finally some advice i'll give it a shot tonight

[bahamuto]

for your feilong, drill the pop 360 so you can land on the kicking leg and chamber the other leg, then it will be easy to just snap out a round or front with the trailing leg.

i figured out i can't 360 hook.. i can hyper 360 cresent without trying.. but i never even tryed to hook.. so i gotta work on that.. i'll have it soon

[Augenatic]

Haha, hyper360hook is much harder than the crescent version. And Feilong Cross is even harder.
