Need help with twisting/spinning? Now with more tutorials!

[erufukami]

This is a lil vid I did after having too much coffee. After I finished the vid I started cleaning my bathroom.... ANYWAY. This is mostly meant for noobies... don't expect it to be advanced or even.... cool. I editted it for maximum gay-factor

[mchitti]

hahaha, that was highly entertaining, although I didn't really learn anything, I'm sure someone else will; and fuck, you are so right about the drilling thing lol, most the time forum advice doesn't even help, you know what you gotta do.

btw nice spin, you always impress me with your spinning.

[erufukami]

Yeah... as stated. Meant for noobies. MAJOR noobies. The ones that don't know the mechanics yet.

[Skippy]

I'm starting tricking in like, a week and a bit, so you can count me as a mega noobie :] I'm quite aware of all the moves and techniques and what not, but this personally helped me understand some issues of torque that I never fully understood before. I knew all about wrapping and torque, but I think being told it again kinda logged it into my brain properly haha.

I chuckled at "dead body flopping through the air".Nice one.

[Skilzat85X]

This was awesome. Hahah "dead carcass in the air". But yea, a very good and informative tutorial. I highly recommend it!
The intro/exit was awesome. I especially liked the little lines you drew in the moments from dig > jump > wrap, those are always great tools.

Good job.

[cepopeye]

hahaha this is your fault :(

[Skilzat85X]

Here's a question erufukami: How do you visualize the twist of your btwists + variations.

[erufukami]

hahaha this is your fault :(

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7kkaWRqrSg

Hahaha. your welcome

[erufukami]

Here's a question erufukami: How do you visualize the twist of your btwists + variations.

Are we talking during the twisting? Or where to throw the momentum BEFORE the twisting? Am I making a tutorial on btwisting and corking next or something?

[mchitti]

hmm that would be helpful.

[Skilzat85X]

Are we talking during the twisting? Or where to throw the momentum BEFORE the twisting? Am I making a tutorial on btwisting and corking next or something?

Hmmm, let's say both lol. Or just like, during the twisting, how do you think of doing the twist, if any way at all.

I don't need a whole nother tutorial lol, I'm just curious about this one thing.

EDIT: Or a better question would be, where do you personally looking before, during, and after the twist of the btwist. Actually the "after" is sorta redundant but you get the idea haha. Or you could say where you're trying to look towards as opposed to what you're actually looking at.

[erufukami]

I look at the floor. ALWAYS. Unless I'm going to kick something. As far as when I'm doing a btwist... I just pop a hard bkick up to the point where my foot leaves the floor. Then I apply the steps of torquing and wrapping. Then I just time it for 720. I can't see a god damned thing when I'm spinning that fast. So I just learned the timing from drilling. Drill drill, drill drill.

[Duke_Hoff]

HAHAHA man, DRILL. I like how you got that point across.

ERUFUKAMI IS RIGHT EVERYONE. SOMETIMES you need to fix it on your own.drill.on your own.drill.

[eddy wang]

DRILL THAT SHIT.
drill drill drill drill drill drill drill drill drill.
:good: Insanely awesome, this tut should be sticky.

[Trixter]

I love your approach, it's fun and informative. Make a b-twist tutorial!! :D

[k-slash]

Excellent idea skilz.

[animal]

hahaha excellent! i'm going to recommend this tutorial to all my friends who are new to tricking or are strugglign with their twisting.

hell it helped me a lot too! very informative indeed. u rawk

[benh922]

Didn't see this post before and I think it was really good and helped thanks

[GoldVision]

Ive always had trouble with my btwist because of not commiting to the spin.
this is gonna help big time...awesome tutorial

[Skippy]

I'm bumping this shit up because it helped me too much with wrapping properly that I can never ever let it die

[NoMore]

when i try to force my spin it makes my legs spred mid-air
i setup and dip and jump like i should, i spin like you told but my fucking legs just spred and stop me or bend to my side
WTF????

[erufukami]

.... Do you not have leg muscles? Push them and keep it tight.

[NoMore]

then im not spinning at all

[cepopeye]

i feel like you're spinning...

[GoldVision]

This tutorial is tha bomb, thanks to you i improved my twisting abilities and i almost got my btwist now.

Awesomes shizzle

[bobcheese]

[erufukami]

I might end up doing the cork version this weekend.

[Trixter]

I watched both tutorials and I coule spin vertically 900 degree, and I can almost btwist consistently now.

I just need to add a kick in that spin :)

thanks

[eddy wang]

i would apreciate the cork too man.
drill the shit is been amazing these days, you fixed my pop tricks

[jan]

FAWKIN' STICKIED! :good:

[erufukami]

[jan]

Then it's time to release a sampler;D

[erufukami]

Gimme till after PLN or so... got some things up my sleeve

[Skilzat85X]

Along with the spinning tutorial you should edit all your tutorial links into the first post. :smile:

[erufukami]

Hmmm... perhaps you could edit the thread title then? And I'll do that.

[NoMore]

those are great, i really learned a lot from those
and after pushing my legs down i can really spin lol

[NoMore]

[erufukami]

God damnit... the cork is the hadouken of tricks tho....

[Evoulution]

Yeah... as stated. Meant for noobies. MAJOR noobies. The ones that don't know the mechanics yet.

calm down.

[BrandonLenz]

those tutorials are the most helpful things on this site for total noobs. if you cant do a trick theres no harm in getting used to spinning, it always helps in the long run. it helped me get my 540 very quickly, as soon as i saw the spinning video i realized that i need to spin faster, so i did and noobischly i pulled off the 540, and now i'm on to aerials, raizs gainers u name it. great tutorials. a must for all.

perhaps in the next tutorial emphasize spotting. alot of noobs think spotting targets means seeing it and staring it down. really its just glancing and then continuing to look in the direction of the spin.
i cant count how many times i've had to explain that, but yea, thanks again.

[Blajde]

you kinda say your opinion is the only right one and the people commenting this was for noobs - wtf? Some people are actually able to the shit without really know the mechanics

[erufukami]

Go die.

[TKD_Andy]

+2.

it is a matter of fact that erufukami is right. Not an opinion.

[k-slash]

What are tutorials for, Blajde?

[TKD_Andy]

What are tutorials for, Blajde?

sucking cock, i believe.

So no one can find a flying carcass atractive?
aaaaaaaaa 'duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu'h

[BrandonLenz]

nope, i cant

HAHAHA, that's fucking awesome!

I'm thinking c720 twist next... but maybe cork. It's been too long since I did a tutorial. Cork is complicated to explain... but c720 is more difficult.... ehhhhhh

[BrandonLenz]

really? a c720 is more difficult of a trick than a cork? wow never knew that.
well i say go for both, even if you only did one, i'm sure it would be amazing.

[erufukami]

c720 TWIST is more difficult than cork.

[BrandonLenz]

o, sorry. my bad.

[cepopeye]

that vid reminded me that
xOxOx John Maguire went from being "in a relationship" to "single." oXoXo

[TKD_Andy]

HAHAHA, that's fucking awesome!

do a c720twist one pleash.

I have the spin and almost enough height, i just need a fresh perspective on it.

[saunders]

yeah c720twist tut would be cool.

[Bullseye]

"Erufukami: Yeah... as stated. Meant for noobies. MAJOR noobies. The ones that don't know the mechanics yet."

Stop it please, gonna blush :D Hahah

Well i don't know if it is going to help, but later when I go practice I will tell ya. Btw, nice double b-twist

[Rath]

Thank you for this tutorial.
I just started tricking and I dont know jack.
This really helped me understand the technique of twisting.
So what else can I say, damn it nothing cause I need to get out now and start the drilling!! :juji:

[sebben]

I like the way you explain things erufukami, :P

[Kung-Fool]

God i love ur tutorials...have u made any others? or are u going to make any others?...btw u helped with the b twists alot...i'm now crashing with double b twists

[THE SKY]

Thanks, that was helpful. I suck at twisting fast enough to land.

[Bytm2vbsk]

^^ haha entertaining twisting tutorial. but yea im pretty comfortable with the toque. however it sucks when im exhaustedfrom tricking and start spinning off axis lol ><

[NoMore]

i think that a cork tutorial was suppose to come after those :|
right? :dead:

[brandonn]

nice tutorial man

come to hurricane 09

[pete_man_man]

yes!!! this is how i twist without realising it. it just always made sense to me.

[ninjitsian]

my problem is that i crunch upp into a little ball when i twist. anyone else had the same problem? tips?(if i keep drilling, i keep cannonballing!)

[TiVo]

i do this too haha.

[ninjitsian]

so what do you do to combat it tivo?

[Angel Castellano]

i do the same and i dont think it's bad. it looks better is you finish with roundkick or doubleleg.

if you want to change that.. go for doubletwist, your body will go straigh.

[trickertodd]

hey thanks heaps for this my c7s are getting better

[Bytm2vbsk]

lol thanks to this tutorial, i did a 1080 twist off vertical today and fell on my ass hard ^^

[Energy-K]

Man great tutorial. Iv'e never been able to get a spin right so thats why when i try a btwist i land on my face haha.


Great videos although you like to talk a lot ^^.
