[shengoikee]

NO U.

[KJER]

yah...totaly...

[Dave C]

Less talky more tricky plz

It's disgusting that there is a thread here called "Snapus" without a single fucking snapuswipe in it. No youtube embeds at all! I oughta ban all you motherfuckers.

God damn fuckin shit fuckin up the forums.

[Dark Twista]

These are so hard for me. :(

I need to work my sideswipe to ever try these.

[glide2]

Fuck anyone who thinks snapus are easy. Have some consideration for uncoordinated fat fucks who struggle with a bloody 540.

[Augenatic]

540's with crescent kicks are for gymnasts, rounds are for badass trickers

[Dave C]

seriously. If one more person posts without a video of a snapu, there will be repercussions.

[saulus]

snapus are impossible for me :(

[Andy R]

how do you do that

[Dave C]

Whew, thank god. I really didn't want to have to moonface everyone in this thread. I'd be late for my session!

Thanks for the Scalco-flavored inspiration Saulus :smile:

[Safari]

In theory snapu is easy, but all tricks are easy if you can do them.. I uno, I would die trying snapus

plus comme: dub B - Cork is EZ!!!!!!!!

[Skippy]

good thing nothing i do is shit.

Haha I dunno man, I know I'm nowhere near and never will be the level your at but when you say snapu I dunno what to think. I just think back to the cheat 720 gif you posted a while back but labelled it as a snapu.

I would love to see kyles snapu, I bet it's stylish as fuck, he does snapus in the middle of other moves enough haha.

[Hite]

I felt the same way haha, "WHERE ARE THE VIDZ?!!!"

fake EDIT: I couldn't find Dan Pitlock doing any snapus :(

[[RozoN]]

Still workin dem bitchez...I just need to man up and twist, instead of trying to rotate it around with my hips haha. I'll prolly post some attempts tomorrow and get some tips on em ^^

Edit: @ Kyle: Swipeknifes without the hook would be more correct, than jacknifes imo. Snapu that goes like a jacknife is more a 540 gyro than snapu imo. But I dunno...I've yet to land them, so I shouldn't be talking haha :tongue:

[Anubis]

post good snapuswipes or you're all shit at trickz.

just finished watching this one, might not be the best one since its landed low, but it's in a really nice combo - 3:23

Posting that video, of all videos, first does not help your case of not being Sesshoumaru.

And if you are... when are you coming back to Texas??? :(

[dpitlock]

when there are loopkacks gathering samplers u should see a couple of mine!

[Skippy]

Anis's snapu in the tim man and anis sampler fucking slaughters haha, it looks so unlike any other snapu, it's so good.

laid back 540 twist! lol

really nice!

[AndyD11]

:snooze: eurgh @ this thread

[dpitlock]

THAT WAS REALLY OLD. LOOPKACKS GATHERING TAUGHT ME ALOT, SO YOU WILL ALL SEE. FUCK IT ILL GO DO IT RIGHT NOW.

[Shaolin.dk]

laid back 540 twist! lol

really nice!

his hips are just as high as a snapu, it gives the illusion of a laidback 540 because he looks towards teh camera. but hes perfectly horizontal!:good:

Matt emigs snapu at 1.22 is perhaps my favourite snapu!:good:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMpwSXqQCrs

[dpitlock]

I blew my knee out at LKACKS09 but I can still do this. I'll try to get it at a bunch of angles tonight.

[dpitlock]

laid back 540 twist! lol

really nice!

im 14.786786 degrees off

His hips are as high as his hips are high, there is no height request specific, he is not horizontal though. You don't need to look back to have what people would class as a snapu, anis's ones in the bangkok samplers he doesn't look back on but still gets noticeably inverted.

Don't get me wrong its still sick and seeing that one I can't wait to see pitlocks proper one, that one he posted had sick power :]

[dpitlock]

Enter text here.We can do this on every trick. If it is not comparable to anis, then u didnt do anything. Skippy your 540 looked nothing like anis in the horse battle, so you didnt do one.

This just doesnt work.

I understand why Jeremy left.

[Skippy]

Oh come on be realistic.

Every move should meet minimal requirements, I wouldn't call my double leg a double leg if my legs were bent as shit, I wouldn't say my b twist was a b twist unless it was horizontal (or as horizontal as proper wushu ones anyway ^.^), and if I ever get to the level of doing snapus then I will never try and pawn off a lay back 540 gyro as one.

I'm not someone too fussy about form, but minimal standards should always be met no matter how hard a move is, a snapu should at least be horizontal, proper jacknifes should always have an extended first kick.

If you want to have moves that aren't as they shuold be than fine, not everyone has the same standards and either way you are still a great tricker and I do not doubt you can do a proper snapu. I seriously doubt jeremy left just because some people bashed a snapu.

[Hez]

Whereas you and Kyle being cocky assholes and acting like you run the forum isn't a contributing factor at all?

I know it's tongue in cheek, or at least under the illusion of that, but at least put it in the publicus or something.

EDIT: I want Scalco back.

EDIT2: WAR IS SKALKOO

EDIT3: What a shit thread.

[Dave C]

Haha nicely done Hez
