I have watched a few of your videos and I have got to say I am blown away! My boyfriend is in love with tricking/free-running/parkour and recently visited me in Texas and got me into this way of life. I was a cheerleader for 3 years and I do know a few moves, but I was wondering what are some basic moves I should learn before trying more advanced tricks (not saying this one is lol). I appreciate your time and patience. Thank you so much.

Hey Epic I'm really glad you mentioned the issue of forgetting and gaining the b twist. I came here to watch because I forgot since I started twisting at an angle. When I attempted to fix that I started losing height. Thanks for talking about it epic!

@MrBloodthirstyalex 12 жыл бұрын

Hey Epic, thankyou so much for this tutorial, it will help me loads when I go to the gym tomorrow. My btwist sets up really well from standing when I concentrate on it and I get loads of height but my timing's off by the smallest amount with the wrap and I just keep falling on my side or knee so I'm going to try and fix that and hopefully get it running too. Staying positive =)

Hey epic, I just wanted to say thank you for doing this. I am a dancer dancing for 10 years now (14 years old), and I am still practicing some tricks. So far, I got the b-kick and the aerial. I will definitely practice and get some tricks into my dance^^

Thank you very much! I'm here in a kung fu school and should learn this kick, everybody showed me it a little bit in a different way and i never knew what's the easyiest way (with / without steps / which stand) but it just not worked at all... Well - I guess it's cause nobody mentioned to keep the shoulders low, I always moved them first down and then up and that's why my legs where to low i think. I'm already excited for tomorrow to try it again now :)

Hey so I noticed you have similar tricking orientation quirks as I do. Some moves you spin counterclockwise and others you spin clockwise (like this move). Should I commit to one direction for everything to better combos or just choose which side is better for every individual move?

Hey I 've learned the butterfly kick fine and can land it but I'm still struggling with the twist. Do you have any tips on landing the twist and can you note the main differences between the two besides not putting your foot down?

@SelfPropelledDestiny 8 жыл бұрын

So I noticed you are twisting to the right in your Bkick/Btwist which would set you up for a "to the right" full. But in many other videos, like your standing full, you twist to the left (my direction). Any explanations here or just ambidextrous?

I went to the park after watching this and I landed the twist on the first try! That was like 2 months ago. I'm a boss at it now. I find it helpful to do a butterfly kick to B-twist. It builds momentum and gives me the "just do it" feel. :)
