my corks are much heigher from scoot than jstep.

Hmm it doens't really benifit my single cork, because you will never really get the same power out of a scoot you get from a god j-step. However i find doing a cork double leg out of a scoot is ALOT easier.
It helps me if I really try to float on my scoot and spot the ground right before my first foot touches. and then when I do put down that foot, I rip everything through and UP! Woohoo!
I like scoots! :tongue:

l-kick = au batido... whats that got to do with scoots? Please god dont tell me some people are calling a scoot a kick. What the hell is the world coming to?
(nike kick)
EUGH! you should be ashamed! whoever the hell thought of bringing the 'nike' name into trickin should be shot.

Jan-16-08, 08:13 AM
i`m kinda not expierienced on using those with my tricks because i suck at flips,well maybe i dont i just dont have a place to try one because my house has low ceilings so i can hit em with hands and those rooms with higher ones have lots of stuff that can be easily broken :(
This au batido looks nice but i dont think it`s very useful in combos..
Scoot is a transition more than a move itself. It is mostly overused by tricksters (myself included), but if used properly, it can give you a lot of power and its a good way to regain control in your combos.

The scoot is just that transition where i jump from my right leg to my left leg while touching down my left hand. They're really easy...

Btw was thinking about a hyper scoot, that would be sick!:good:

Jan-16-08, 08:26 AM
OFFTOPIC : What should i run more,jump more,get my legs more flexible so i could improve kicking?
ONTOPIC : I checked those vids and did a scoot from my first time,its like speed vault(in parkour) you just do it on da ground,and in parkour you do it through a rail or an obstacle.

haha i think people have already done it, aswell as a load of variations of stuff to do after them.
i made up my own variation on the scoot so you can missleg-into stuff from it easier.
Ill make a gif and upload it when i get the chance.

Nice combo Andy. By the way, the first move is from capoeira, "S dobrado".
TKD_Andy
Jan-16-08, 09:05 AM
its an awesome move. You can get alot of momentum into the following move.
Thats it, im adding it to my list of things to do more.

you might get banned for using terrible english too.
if u cork higher cuz of scoot its probably because ur extending ur leg properly, from the scoot. try to apply it to a j-step :O.

not good advice im afraid!

im talking in general lolol.
matt r has a high ass scoot cork. not saying their techniques for j-step are bad, but it just looks like scoots get you higher up cuz of going from a deeper bend, and people should sorta try it with jstep is all :ogre:
TKD_Andy
Jan-16-08, 11:23 AM
so you're saying you should bend more in a jstep, rather than your initial comment of having a straighter leg?
Im confused as to what advice you're actually trying to give :eh:
And using matt R as an example isnt really good, he was grown from birth to cork from a test tube in deepest darkest scotland.
by extended leg, i meant extending ur jumping leg from a deep bend = height
TKD_Andy
Jan-16-08, 11:32 AM
to be honest, i wouldnt really put 'bending the leg' very high up on a list of things to get more height on corks. I think blocking, swinging the leg up higher before taking off and using the arms will make alot more difference.
I mean, look at teddy/ott/anis, they dont really have a deep bend on the leg but they still have ridiculously high corks.

i scoot to c/tak 9 .... sometimes i fall on the tak 9 tho =S
Why?
It wasn't directed at you because you want to tweak it judging by your post, it was meant at people who need a tut on how to actually perform it. So no offense meant to you, sorry if you misinterpreted my post.

nah man its easy! its the opposite way to the way i scoot normally, and the gif was from the first day i thought to do them, so it was probably my 3rd/4th attempt. You'll get them easy man :smile:
on an annoying note, i didnt get to trick tonight due to a combination of gaymax badminton players wanting to rent our tkd hall after our class (for half an hour, two of them! cocksuckers...) and wouldnt let me use the other half of the hall, and on the ride to the hall i destroyed my knee on my handlebar. Fucking bikes...

hmm. I go over the scoot briefly in my scoot-arabian help vid, but to be honest that was just for scoot to pop moves.
Im nowhere near good enough with scoot s/t stuff to make a help vid on them, ill leave that up to someone else :good:

Wut.
looks like i shoulda explained myself better.... n e ways scoots are similar to l-kicks it's just how your post leg starts.... if u don't do it from a handstand... the l-kick that is, then the move has similarities.

I never said that .... I'm not going to get angry because that is stupid.... I am not a noob i prolly was tricking years before you started so I know what I'm talking about.
EUGH! you should be ashamed! whoever the hell thought of bringing the 'nike' name into trickin should be shot.
The guy said he was a noob, and most noobs call it names like that. I was trying to get him to understand... Be civilized, don't be so hasty to write bullshit and flame. peace

lol I have no idea what else a hyper scoot would look like.
For me...I don't know why but... my left knee MUST touch the ground during the scoot or else I don't get height. Anyone else agree? or am i special? btw...i cork to my left.

im not questioning how long you've been tricking, im simply stating the fact that the term L-kick has always, in capoiera and breakdancing, been associated with an au batido.
Why would you call a scoot an L-kick anyway? The diagram of the move both from a onlookers viewpoint and a birds-eye view wouldnt suggest it forms the shape of an L, nor is there any kind of kick or kicking motion involved in the scoot. As im sure you're aware (as you've stated you're proud that you're not a noob) that its just one of many transitional moves that have no actual meaning themselves except for the transition.
I really dont understand the reasoning behind your initial post
also a scoot isn't a "freeze" it's more of a transition, or a single motion.
