    guys notice his b twist, his head is turned the hole way through to spot the ground! he is keeping is arms to his chest to gain the spin and u notice that his thighs or knees are together to help with the spin aswell..... for the height make sure u whip ur leg straight up! im still working on mine and i havnet gotten it yet, keep up the good work! thanks for this tutorial epic! every1 train hard dont give up and as a clever man once said............. STAY POSITIVE!

    I'm very impressed with this video. You didn't even have any cuts or transitions. You landed every B-twist very clean, with a textbook formal kick to seal the deal.
    Thanks for the pointers and the slow motion is invaluable. That.. and it just looks so bad ass! :)

    dude you have the best tutorials, and i've watched ALOT lol. as soon as im not injured im gonna go out and try your tips for btwist, raiz, and cork :)
    you're raiz tutorial is the only one i understand, hopefully i'll be able to do it because now it looks incredibly easy

    ah, finally, my master has been struggling to teach me this move for months now, but after watching this, it clicked almost instantly and i can do it just as good as the next guy who happens to be able to do it. thanks!!!

    @darcscorpion 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    Also, make sure that before you attempt any of these moves, you stretch thoroughly because if you don't you're not gonna get the right leg shape and you will hurt yourself. Great Vid. Much Respect

    Dude I watched the winter soldier last week and he did this spin on the movie to move himself to cover so that he wouldn't get hit with bullets and it looked freaking badass.

  • @the6thtramp
    @the6thtramp 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I couldnt do it at first, learnt the B kick, and then all it meant was me making sure i put my legs together for the spin to land the B twist, thanks for the tutorial man.

  • @DanteWesker612
    @DanteWesker612 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've seen a version of the butterfly twist where you take off with just one foot, and you kinda wrap both arms around yourself as you spin through the air and your legs kind of come together as you land, after hitting your target. It was used by the world famous black belt champion, Taylor Lautner

  • @Snakumaru
    @Snakumaru 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @SGlicious5 I can tell you its mostly the legs. Sometimes when I dont concentrate on doing it clean, I forget to use my arms but my legs still do all the work. But to make it look clean and to get higher, you better use everything, your legs , your arms and your upper body.

  • @amarmirza08
    @amarmirza08 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @NeO5560 yea, keep your right arm up and out (if you jump off your left leg) while using your left like you would in a normal butterfly kick. Then as you do your lift push, bring that right arm down and across your body as if you are trying to throw your arm around your chest and touch your back. This should help with the spin. Also it helps to think of when you are facing the sun (during the twist) to start your landing.

  • @JayKay911
    @JayKay911 16 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @MrSF247
    @MrSF247 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    It really depends on what you feel comfortable with. Some poeple feel more comfortable cartwheeling facing right; others facing left. If you feel more comfortable cartwheeling to your left hand first, then lead with your left side and vice versa.

  • @XGazudin
    @XGazudin 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Chrism13100
    What you can do if you have good mats is, try working on the height of your b-kick, concentrate on only that, and add the spin at the end so that you will land on your back. By time, you will learn to add the spin earlier while maintaining the height

  • @Raisetsuai
    @Raisetsuai 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Angelbikost Right as your foot leaves the ground you really gotta throw your arms hard and throw your shoulders and look over your shoulder. Don't forget to wrap your arms in.

  • @Snakumaru
    @Snakumaru 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @TheJuunaziboy you dont need to get your body behind you. The trick goes to the side anyway after the dip. your head goes to the side and then up... just think about a bkick when doing that and at the peak you just do a teeny tiny half twist and there you got it and you can stretch your push off leg again and you got it already...

  • @FlippingDMparkour
    @FlippingDMparkour 13 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @EkoParkour

    I good way to make yourself rotate well is to tell yourself to look up at the sky when you rotate. That helped me.

  • @XGazudin
    @XGazudin 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Chrism13100
    If you ever get to try out that "half" b-twist kind of thing on a mat with the landing on your back, you'll notic that you are more likely to keep your legs straight, because you have less fear as y

  • @erebus38
    @erebus38 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I already gave up on that move ages ago.My body is not very good at adding twists to aerial moves.A B-kick is a joke,but this twisting variation actually requires to many things to happen for my body's physical capabilities to keep up with,so I just stick to simpler basic moves like b-kicks,front and back flips,but it's a sweet move though,and I like watching people do them!

  • @illusionmaster971
    @illusionmaster971 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    for those new ones i have some advice. when u throw ur leg, JUMP AS HIGH AS U CAN THEN TURN!!! but most importanly, put ur leg up. c I hav been working on that for about 4 months and i fanally learned how to do it. I hav always just kept landing on my knees and going straight down. but then i put my leg up then i FINALLY GOT IT!! so the point is,,,,, DONT MISS THAT STEP!!! PUT UR LEG UP PPL ITS NOT THAT HARD!!!!!

  • @TBoNdBRFOX7
    @TBoNdBRFOX7 16 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very nice!
    I'm amazed with those movements!
    I'm Brazilian and I did Capoeira once.
    But I stopped for like 4 years.
    I wanna get back trainning but more like what you do not Capoeira cause I like those movements twisted with Parkour.
    But I need that someone make me a list from tha basics to the harder ones from your tutorials can anyone do that for me?
    Thanks a lot!

    @Salaina5555 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    This was the most informative video. I just learned B-kicks tonight and can do them tho my abs are sore ^_^. Tried one B-twist for a test (did not expect to land at all ) and bombed it. Height is needed lol. But thank you, I am gonna practice that Kick for a while to increase height. Then that sweet twist will be mine ^^

  • @aisukurimusandoichi
    @aisukurimusandoichi 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @freerunner625 drill butterfly kicks wushu style, its the best thing you could ever do for your b-twists. It'll improve your setup, dip, aerial plane and it'll help you keep your legs straight for a clean fast spin. Search for videos of zuan zi and zuan zi xuan ti

  • @blindbraille
    @blindbraille 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    The slow motion at the end really helps to break it down. The tutorial helps but it brings it all together to actually see it done properly in slow mo, nice touch. Only thing...you need to shut your camera man up, at the beginning of this vid and in your butterfly kick tutorial you just hear him mumbling and the butterfly vid sounds like your in a park so of course background noise but I could hear him/her mumbling lol Great vids otherwise very helpful!

  • @master1387
    @master1387 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Angelbikost punch(so to speak) in the direction you want to spin If thats not enough also with the leg your lifting with add a kick towards the direction your going

  • @skaterfugater
    @skaterfugater 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    practise practise practise.
    what else you might want to do is make sure that you turn your head around and look over the shoulder were you go. (and this is the most important part of all twist motions) Even if you still cant see make sure your head stays und turning direction all the time!

  • @Peteru69
    @Peteru69 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Well, the momentum of the ARMS is just as important. Which he doesn't really go over.
    When you dip down, don't be afraid to swing your arms for more speed in the twist, and then tug the arms in.
    But yes, the upward momentum is probably the most important thing about the Butterfly-twist.
    People need to just practice it. Figuring these things out for yourself is really the only real way. Obviously after watching a tutorial on it so you have the basic principles down.

  • @XGazudin
    @XGazudin 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Chrism13100
    I have problems with twisty thigns like corks so I focus on other moves for now, for some its easy and comes antural and for some like me its very uncomfortable (cork).
    Sand is good, I learned my backflip on sand, from a ledge tho. But its really good to get over the fear and work the technique without fear and with very low risk of injury. find a ledge next to sand and u r set, then do from ledges or benches onto grass or more solid ground and gradually lower the height of ledges

  • @grim_teevee
    @grim_teevee 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    i can get my b twist rotation around and I also always land on my feet. The issue I am having when I watch video of my self is that when I am in the air my hips are sorta above my head so I am at a diagonal during the trick. It doesnt look as clean to me and i was wondering if i could get some tips on how to correct this so that I am more flattened out in the air. Thank you for your tuts and keep up the good work!

  • @joesteer311

    I get that too, I fixed it by really focusing on "punching the armpit" and really keeping my legs straight.

  • @SheepYJumpeR
    @SheepYJumpeR 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Angelbikost I had the same problem, but i discovered that i did the b-twist better another way than i do the b-kick, so maybe you should try both sides if you haven't already tried!! :)

  • @Professoar

  • @amarmirza08

  • @TrickzAsker

    yea u can but later on when u go for the double b-twist or 2 twists it going to be very hard to do it from standing

  • @Pikachieu
    @Pikachieu 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    dip is key IMO.
    i don't twist until i face the other side from where i started (for example, i'm facing the my right turning towards the left) hopefully w/e i just said was clear xD
    right to left or vice versa :D

  • @MoveWithWoo
    @MoveWithWoo 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    1. I hate that i don't have the control to learn moves that involve twisting.

    @XGazudin
    That is the big problem. i need to call like a local gym or somtin to see if they open to anyone if the person pays. i dont have any mats. also, i have a problem keeping may legs straight during the spin. i think my left leg gets stuck out (left leg is jumping leg) while i spin, causing me to hit the ground and spin slower. BTW i can do a B Kick! that is easy. i also have no idea how you could spot the ground spinning that fast!

  • @mel956
    @mel956 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    also! wushu trainers/ poseurs! b twists are meant to be completely straight.... as in DONT bend your legs when performing in a wushu competition because points will be taken off....... it looks a lot cleaner but i think that the bending of your legs look awesome.....er haha uhhhhh so yeah when doing wushu performances legs and back straight, keep your body parallel to the ground and a straight line

  • @juhoman_
    @juhoman_ 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    ok i think that i've learned this now as well that i don't forget it anymore. it's easy to do but i have a problem... my b-twist isn't slanted enough! it looks ugly, it's something like in 45 degree so in the half way of slant and strainght. if i'm trying to take my body in very very VERY behind me after the dip i can't get my momentum go in strainght up enough it goes too much forward. it's hard to try a swingthru because problem of mine :/ i just have to drill this more than ever !

  • @grim_teevee
    @grim_teevee 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    the only way i know how to describe it is that everything is right as far as the rotation and landing, but when i am in the air twisting my hips are a bit higher than my head so its not completely flat like in the tutorial. I think that I am either kicking my legs up to high or my chest is too low.

  • @mel956

    you know how you do the dip then you rise? twist when you get to the highest point and push up even more so your a litle off the ground, that is the best time to do the twist

  • @CalvinBGood

  • @XGazudin
    @XGazudin 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @General22
    dunno about the funny sight lol, it sure was somewhat bloody. but yea I DID laugh afterwards because normally thats not supposed to happen that way lol. it happened right after the dip, it was too low and my knee came up faster and earlier than my head so, go figure :D
    Well i will work on it again from scratch and break the whole movement down once more

    @Chrism13100 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @XGazudin
    also, i heard that cork is easier to some people, so i will try that too. hey, is sand a good and soft material to try like backflips and btwist and cork on? also, i always forget that i need height. the first time i tried it, i went sideways instead of up, so i did not even come close to landing it!

  • @mryoda
    @mryoda 16 ปีที่แล้ว

    I learned that you shouldn't trow your left (right) arm like a punch to twist the body, instead use your hips or center of gravity to twist, also think of it more like a aerial twist, so it will be more horizontal than vertical ...nice tutorial though ,,,,
