i could probably learn more from watching mythbusters. or bill nye (sp) the science guy.

what i dont get is (and this is sorta unrelated):

why do people take martial arts for the kicking aspects of it?? you pay people to basically show you stretches, and show you how to kick? think about it, you can do all that yourself! for free!

go stretch.. and drill basic kicks that you've seen manny, or chris devera, or scalco or anyone do!

random guy:" which martial artz helpz trickz plz i needa know fast "

me: " fuck you. "

You need to humble yourself a bit. The last thread where I freaked out on you, I wasn't calling you a nobody - I was getting frustrated that you were acting arrogant and bigoted. Myth busters will probably not show you anything about kicking technique. And people take martial arts classes so that someone can evaluate their technique and help them correct it by finding places where it is weak. Just drilling something you've seen on Youtube without having somebody there to critically analyze it is kind of pointless, don't you think?

Don't go knocking this guy's video until you can prove that you can do better kicks - which will be hard; this guy has some massively nice control. I'm not saying that this will be a good or bad instructional video, but he has very precise technique.

I agree with Ryan.

That being said, I do believe that Syko Dragon's tutorials would probably be more beneficial and cost effective for the tricking population, he also made them specifically for trickers.
