can anyone provide advice on comboing illusion kicks into 720/900/dleg etc

[shengoikee]

i try this sometimes but it always seems i land with my feet too far apart after the illusion. any tips on how to better position myself after landing the illusion twist? =)

Illusion is essentially 360crescent [hyper180\], so practice landing that kick with your legs about shoulder width (or wherever you takeoff for these pop kicks). From there, your biggest concern will be making sure you stand up (if your weight is behind you as you land, it wont matter where your feet are!) and as biyak suggested, try with smaller kicks first till you really get used to taking off into these moves.

One other thing that may help- try landing the illusion kick leg FIRST, so that the other leg takes a split second to catch up. This will give you a little time to right yourself before you go off into the next trick!
