It's like my third try so it looks like shit, but i'd like some professional opinion and tips.

Thanks! :D

wow that was really good for your third attempt
you need to kick up more to your opposite shoulder, it'll make it easier and look a lot better, at the moment you're sort of stepping over your other leg,
and work your arms harder, it will make it a lot more powerfull and once again it will look better
good luck

edit: actually now that i look at the vid again
your arms aren't too bad, they're good at the beginning of the kick, but once your actually in the air you need to keep control of them

Find a better floor to do it on. I bet that you'll be very good at 540 if you go out and drill it on grass.

if he learns to do it well on the shit floor, when he gets out on grass they'll be super sexy!

everything need to go upward!
not go sideway, "go upward!"
swing your arm, lift it up! (warp tight)
jump then swing and kick, dont jump over knee!
use your non kicking leg, swing it and bring it upward!
bring your whole body upward!
up up up! and kick! then land!

thanks everybody for the tips!

Actually, i have a big yard, but it's winter here and it's all wet and slippery outside.

Nice man, congrats! 540 is such a great feeling first time!
And yeah just focus a bit more up.. For instance look more up and open up your chest more! But the angle of the camera made it look worse than it is already!:good:

It will be perfect before you know it, just keep drilling!!!

this. And do a round kick inside of an inside crescent 100s of times easier and better.

Pretty good for a third attempt. Try not to leap on your kicking leg, use your waist and arms to rotate your body up and over for the kick.

Listen to this guy, he helped me on mine :smile:
Not that i can completely land mine yet, i land mine both legs simultaneously, but i bet if i went out and threw them RIGHT now i could land them, i just cant cos my legs are sore from our school walkathon, i sprinted the whole thing.
This bitch of a move is mine tomorrow!

Also use your hips, bring your leg upwards, dont think of it as bringing your leg across, swing that shit upwards.

get a target man preferably above your head it will make the kick look more impressive
