Aerial problems

[Blackrain313]

This is my first aerial that landed(Kind of)

When I look at it, it just doesnt look right.
EDIT* After continuous replays of my aerial, I realised I need to staighted my legs more.

Any tips on how to improve it/point out whats going wrong?
Looking forward to the advice ^^

[wi boo]

your doing it like a bkick, if you want it to look like a gymnast aerial, go into it straight, your body i mean, instead of sideways, if you want a bkick aerial, just have staight legs i guess, oh practice cartwheels

Ahh, ic, I'll keep that in mind.

The gymnast aerial is far more useful, learn that.

Your aerial isn't that bad though, just remember to lift hard and jump UP.

Wtf is up with the crappy advice and information? Haha, what he's doing is a gymnast aerial. The trickster aerial doesn't exist, what you call "trickster aerials" are either crappy aerials, with the legs not coming directly over the body, or a side2side aerial, which doesn't really deserve a name, because nobody does it. Again, this is a completely normal aerial, the legs go straight over the body.

It's a little unclean, and that's probably because of your upper, turning over too late. Try to sling your right arm out to the right, and try to turn your shoulders, also, think about pulling your leading leg straight down after going into the aerial.

I'm sorry about the negativity ahah, but I'm just tired of new people giving crappy advice :p. Also, I meant upper body turning over to late, I forgot to write "body" for some reason haha. But yeah, cartwheel drilling would be cool - try some dive cartwheels with your legs completely straight, and then try the aerial with that technique.

Yup, should re-run the basics and get them crisp:wicked:
Thnx again ^^

Theres nothing intensly wrong with that aerial, just need to straighten your legs the whole way through and then your sweet!

Just practise, practise, practise! ^^
