this tutorial singlehandedly got me to do a helicoptero in 1 session after 3 months of very intermittent and demotivated efforts during training sessions! THANK YOU!
Completely awesome tutorial, Scott. Thanks for showing me all the wrong ways to do this. I think I've tried most of them, but wasn't sure why they weren't working. Great analytical video and the way you think of the various moves joining together is really great. Top notch explanation, instant sub.
@@ScottMcDonaldAcrobat I'll have to tag you when I finally get the exit clean.. that direction of hand tip is good, it might make the difference! I think it's easier to get away with less flexibility in a reversao than a helicoptero because of the momentum

I'll definitely put it on the list! I feel I don't do gumbis often enough these days to make a great tutorial, but it would be a good one to revisit :)
@@ScottMcDonaldAcrobat it took me 7 months to get gumbi : ( I just got it like a month and still practicing it. Everytime I do the gumbi , it feels so weird. I can't actually spot and it's still a hit and miss. I wanna be able to do it comfortably like a cartwheel. Maybe you can give me a new perspective on the gumbis!!
@@sprazer one way of trying it that won't help much for swinging out of it but will help with the chest position and feeling of sweeping your legs behind and over you would be to simply try a cartwheel with as deep of an arch as you can, almost trying to bridge and brush your feet on the floor. I initially learned mine like that and then adapted it to a swing through axis.
I have a decent cartweel and an front walkover but I'm terribly failing at the sweeping thing..my leg just refuses to over-rotate. I guess it some sort of block
Perhaps your hips are more on top of your shoulders than in front of them when you try sweeping, that could make it tricky to over-rotate. Hard to know exactly what's going on without seeing it, though.
Cheers Jan. I believe we have a lot of mutual friends, particularly the Cirque Mechanics crowd- I've heard your name a lot (always in positive ways)! Hope this tutorial was helpful :)
iv seen ppl show reversao's lifting and landing on the right leg first its much easier than your reversao. i guess theres different ways to do it, or what?
I'm not sure what you mean. Mine lifts the left first and lands on it because of the direction I'm going; if you lifted the right first and landed on it while going the other direction that would make sense but not so much if you're going towards the left. A reversao is a meia lua de compass that turns into a front walkover, so the kicking leg and landing leg are a pretty set thing unless you're doing a variation. Got a video of what you're talking about? I'm curious to see.
@@ScottMcDonaldAcrobat basically its much easier to come up when you have the same side leg and arm on the ground. the exit of the helicoptero is staggered arm and leg.
@@timtaylor9590 Ahh. that is typically called a tinsica; it's a normal cartwheel that ends as a front walkover. Completely different trick. I've never heard anyone else call that reversão but hey, there are very inconsistent naming conventions throughout the capoeira world. Within tricking and most capoeira groups, though, a reversão would be the one I described.

@@ScottMcDonaldAcrobat So I started Breaking at 39 years old. Hah. Somehow, I stuck with it. I'm not very good at gymnastics type stuff. This move kinda popped in there recently. I think because it's SWIPE RELATED. LOL. Which is a strong point for me. I only tried it for one practice but the way you speak about this trick is just so real , spot on and useful. Lol. I feel like I will smoke this next practice !!!! Wanted to say ,"*🙏 thanks 🙏 and maybe send you a link . Appreciate you . Peace ✌️✌️
@@samdog2201 Ayy that's awesome to hear! If you're familiar with a 540 kick, the way you swing your legs and hips in those also feels really similar to a helicoptero or swipes. Good luck, it's a fun trick once it clicks!
I never knew how good you were at purposefully doing helicoptero incorrectly, nice tutorial dude
hahah thank you, it's a strange feeling to deliberately commit to failing :D
Thank you so much for producing high quality content, despite not having a large audience yet. It's is so fucking appreciated.

Hey, thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the tutorial 🙃👊🏻
This is the best heli tutorial ever made. You covered literally everything about the trick. Awesome work dude 💪
thank you so much!

This was great, thank you so much :) I hope to give some drills a try soon, the headstand looked kind of fun by itself
This has so many tips and tricks to getting the helicoptero including trying a raised surface. cant wait to try at the track :D
I hope it helps! The raised surface thing usually speeds up the learning process dramatically 👊🏻🙃👊🏻
Dude the best tutorial on Helicoptero.
🙏🏻🙏🏻 thank you so much!
Woow! Loved this one! Will try these steps to get my heli soon! Thanks a lot for sharing 💪🔥
👊🏻☺️👊🏻 the biggest thing I would suggest is really, really drilling in on a raised surface until the mechanics are 100% before going any lower
Terrific, I'll watch once a day for a fortnight till I've seen then I'll get it in one day.
Great tutorial man
Amazing tutorial, Scott!

Thank you so much for making this tutorial; I know it’s really going to help me with this move.

Does Scott has a macaco tutorial? I feel like macaco-reversao-helicoptero would be a great order of videos to watch from him
I do not, but I will make one at some point :) Thank you!

I've got a few in the works, but can't film any new acrobatic stuff for a few months as I recover from surgery- any particular tutorial requests? :D
@@ScottMcDonaldAcrobat from aerials to front and back handspring, to flips and twists, you name it :D
