It has looked like this for months without improvement, I can't understand what is wrong.

i'll tell you what works for me, it may not work for you but here it is anyways.

keep looking forward all the time, when i swing my leg forward i swing it up really high and as straight as can be.

when the leg is on way up i take a little hop step i guess you could say.

when your leg comes behind pull it all the way behind you as high as you can and keep pulling through the entire move, you want your lifting leg to be very high before you even take off. keep looking forward during your take off and push your arms back and upwards in what i call a "chicken wing" motion. push through the ground with your foot and keep pulling everything through.


when im doing loser and axe2webster i don't spot my landing it just sort of happens.

sometimes tricking in your undies can be harmful to your technique.


and the environment...

One problem with this loser is that you are doing an axe > webster not loser. Which one do you want tips for?

[Anima]

How is that a looser haha ?

[TKD_Andy]

thats not a loser :eh:

thats a hop-axe-to-webster.

the reason why you're not landing is because everyone swears blind not to hop before an axe2 techniques.

[lynall]

dude your not swinging your leg high at all and you kinda just falling.

i ain't got the best but maybe this'll help :)

Sorry, I've been experimenting with both moves and I wasn't thinking when making the title, But my loser attempts land exactly the same way.

TKD andy, I based my technique from this guy, and you see he hops a little bit at the beginning of the move.

And Lynall, I've already watched the loser tutorial you made a while back, it was good, do you have any other tips? I was thinking there were also other problems in my movement besides the leg swing.

[lynall]

I've watched your vid a bunch of times now dude, you follow that guys technique real well but it doesnt look like your putting much effort into it ( the jump ). the timing seems fine though.

can you do a running webster cuz thats easier and it'll get you in tune with the motion n stuff.

[Dave]

That tutorial sucked balls. Tutorials are not good... anyway, you are not strong enough with the move yet so dip down a lot more when you take off. That is, get your chest lower so that you are basically tucking/grabbing your leg before your back leg swings to it's peak and you leave the ground.

Just make sure when you get your chest/head lower that you aren't actually moving towards the ground lower. What I mean is, you aren't diving your face and chest down into the ground, rather digging it to just above the ground but making a conscious effort to lift it above the ground still so that your momentum isn't moving towards the ground..


I don't know if this helps at all, but good luck.
