Keep a cool head and know your place in the community.

Other than that, HAVE FUN with tricking. Or else there's no point

At first I was like "Racist much..." but then I looked where you lived and it said "Tejas", so I guess it's okay to call them China-men and depict them as clueless when it comes to cattle ranching.

A lot of people trick in the dark, though. You just need enough light to see where the hell everything is.

Hey everybody starts somewhere. It took me a couple of years of on and off training just to get an aerial. Everybody learns and does tricks at their own pace.

Pandaman
Apr-01-08, 09:02 PM
i hope you mean a few years conditioning and a few months doing the aerial. otherwise i got some work to do.

WushuTricks
Apr-01-08, 09:25 PM
I didn't know about conditioning back then. I just knew that you needed a fast cartwheel and the time to practise lol.

In my opinion, aerial is the hardest basic trick to learn. It sounds pretty simple, a cartwheel without hands. But it requires good technique and decent flexbility.

Some of the easier basic tricks can take as short as a week to learn, while some of the harder ones, like the aerial, can actually take a year for some people.

Personally, when learning aerials, I practiced like 3 times a week, 15 minutes each session drilling them, and I got them in like 3 months.

Actually, an aerial is probably one of the easiest. Double-legs are the !@#$%wtf moves.

The difficulty of a trick really depends on the specific person. Drill the basics and allow your tricks to improve and evolve naturally.
I also believe you should learn a trick from a run-up on the ground before you do from a raised surface. It replaces airtime with necessary technique.

Aerials fucking killed me and yet I got double legs in less than 2 gym sessions! That prooves that everyone is different haha.

I agree with you, aerials took me a few sessions, and flexibility isn't needed atall...

Double legs took me a while, they are the hardest basic to do well.

I learned aerial so quick I had it before I even started tricking.

Double leg took over two years, though. I landed a hyper c7twist before I landed a double leg lololo
