Oka so the other day i was messing around in my living room pissed cause of the cold outside and i was trying different setups into c7....and this one time i tried to do it by wrapping my non kicking leg behind my kicking leg and somehow went all horizontal and fell on my ass.......after recording it on my phone i realize it looked somewht lyk a Tak9......
I know this move is probably wayyyy beyond my potential right now but i thought if i can c7,btwist,and webster this move shouldnt be this difficult and so ive set a goal of landing this move before christmas evn if it kills me..:dead:
does anyone have any tips for tak9?
why is ths move considered difficult or wht are some difficult aspects of the move?
wht trick or tricks should i work on in order to make Tak9 easier?

tak9 is basically an arabian from cheat setup with a kick at the end. It would be a good idea to run into it, like you do on a btwist. You don't need more help than that lol :tongue:.
Post the vid so we can see your attempt.

o so if its more like a cheat arabian does it have to be inverted? cuz i was trying to get it like the one on the tricktionary which is more horizontal then vertical......whats the right way to do it?

can you cheat 720 twist round kick?
not really cause i never really understood how to pump that move.....should i work on it?
Here are some suggestions before you try the move...
It needs a powerful setup so you need to be able to go up like a rocket when you take off the ground from a cheat setup.
Mastery of Arabians, btwists, and fulltwists. I say this because you are basically applying all the basic principles of said move into one...
Just do a tak twist first. Get it down then you apply the kick. If you try and go straight for the kick..you probably won't land it.
A mat. Safety first...tHIS MOVE CAN HURT LIKE A BITCH IF YOU BAIL/UNDEROTATE.
Have fun! =)

Thx for the tips :smile:
but one last question......is it more of an inverted arabian round thing or is it more of a horizontal movement like the tricktionary example? :bandit:

You should start with just doing an arabian from a cheat takeoff.
Before attempting to turn it over and round it anyways. haha.
I have only seen a couple people do this move right [jerm, sess and pitlock]. So if you manage to do it that is pretty crazy.

The reason people are saying arabian is because that's the way most people who can do the move think of it or describe it at least. The way you described it in the beginning sounds like you're on the right track, but the move itself is horizontal...
If you can do wrapthrus at all you can think of a tak9 as a "wrapthru twist round" in that it is utilizing a wrap takeoff (like cheat but standard side) but it turns you sideways for the "twist" (as it is not really a twist, in my experience only feels like a twist) and ends with an inside kick. Post your vid for more help man!

I say shoot for inverted because thats what a frontflip is, but it might be hard to get the round kick out if its inverted. but if prodigy can't or didn't want to make this inverted I wouldn't worry about it too much.

only thing I can say is.. its all in the setup(noni) xD
gain as much speed and momentum as posiblein this silly setup.. think of an arabian (as Rozon said) and when you started takeoff then consern about the twisting- and hope for the best... THIS IS A FACE PLANT MOVE!! - so bare with it xD

The tips given in this thread should suffice.
The move is considered difficult because you utilize all of the three axes human body rotates around. The difficult aspects of the move can be: gaining height, getting the move inverted and getting the kick out.
Cheat setup, arabians/fulls, cheat7twist
