Go watch Zak’s video where we see how many tricks I can learn in an hour! th-cam.com/video/thnN3a9LREU/w-d-xo.html
Is that a trick question?
Y…yes?
Grand master
Judont know lol
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND THE WINNER IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSS..!
Here’s the trick…
As a former tricking instructor, I was rooting for you so hard in this whole video! I legit celebrated when you landed the backflip!!
When in a streetlight, I don’t want to see that ninja shit cuz you gonna get dropped💀
Actually used to use the kick at 4:27 in competition, it was good for getting 3 point kicks.
I actually went to a Raymond Daniela seminar where we learned the 720 punch and his crazy spinning back kick
since you know martial arts .. it looks ten times better than normal trickers do it you looked like a ninja man
Bill Sypher in the background, some one made a deal 👀
You gotta get Raymond Daniels in a vid on tricking!!!
I didn't get the notification for this video. TH-cam is hatin on the chubby surprise!
bill is watching
Practical or not, THIS is the sort of martial arts we wanted to learn when we were kids, and so jealous that there wasn't and isn't one near to me (though I'd probably suck at it anyway)
But would succeed with practice.
@@mmhcreates Maybe, but I've got foot issues
Depends on where you live. There's capoeira all over the world. But not so much in more rural areas.
@@jonathancampbell5231 ah, if cannot be overcome, then perhaps improvements can at least be made. And or become the handstand man.
@@mmhcreates Struggle with handstands as well. Weight and shoulder issues :(
But maybe we'll see, one day.
Coming from a tricking background I would say that the tricks themselves arent really viable in a fighting scenario but the byproducts such as proprioception and athleticism are what’s useful. To be honest tricking is a fun way to take a break from serious martial arts training.
You landing the backflip after a couple tries is actually pretty impressive to me!
He chubby surprise
@@SenseiSeth hehe chubby surprise
@@SenseiSeth do you like cheese burgers?
With help and a gym is actually easier than you think
I understand the backflip fear SO MUCH.
I just freeze when I try and stay in this sort of awkward squat position.
And I do capoeira so it's an issue
The only time I was ever able to actually do a flip I was on a wrestling mat and did a front flip onto my back
@@jacobmurphree1563 actually, I find front flips less scary (even though they might be more dangerous and are more difficult to do).
@@lep3nseur yea When I did it I was on a pretty thick wrestling mat and didn't feel scared really
Hey I do Capoeira too!
The way that helped me learn the backflip was to first learn a macaco, then a backhand spring, then a backflip.
Although it looks very similar it’s a lot different, a folha seca from Capoeira can super easily be progressed to help get over your fear of going backwards. I actually think it’s wayyyy easier to progress into than a backflip.
Hope that helps!
correct progressions will fix that lol
Loved it. Pretty much from the off I was thinking "Dudes gonna be sore tomorrow" :) Must try that scary back flip or something "off Syllabus".
8:20
The capoeira-looking kick also seems really similar to a cartwheel kick, that is commonly used by more flashy muay thai fighters like saenchai. I think the kick would connect in a timing that is different enough so you could try to mix both of them up. Think I'm gonna learn it, looks cool.
Are you from Brazil?
Perhaps...
Yeah, I am.
@@gustavor.canezini5024 para com issu mano, é obvio pelo Nome 💀
It's like a hopping mea lua gi compasso (I likely spelled that wrong).
Cub Swanson kicked a couple of guys with a cartwheel kick in the UFC!
The fitness and control you achieve working these tricks could help you in sparring. Doesn't mean you have to actually do the tricks in sparring.
Bingo
Ye
Zak's attitude and just the way he carries himself, man! I would actually let this guy teach me the hardest tricks while feeling safe. Just positive reinforecement, all the hyping up and stuff... Awesome dude 100%
Thanks Seth for shining light on tricking and trying your best. I’m a martial artist who transitioned to tricking.
If anyone wants to learn tricking please start with the prerequisites before going balls to the wall.
When you mentioned the body pain it brought back memories of when I first started doing parkour and learning flips. You use so many muscles you didn't even know existed and after that first session you discover ways of hurting you never knew were possible. Also, I'm sure he's already mentioned this to you off camera but for anyone else wondering.. the best tip I can give you with flips is always jump straight up. Do not start the process of rotating until you have already left the ground. Your body will also always follow your head. If you find yourself turning to one side it is because you are trying to spot the ground behind you by looking to one side. I know it is scary but you need to keep your head straight and trust in the tuck (unless you are doing spinny shit of course). You can completely stall out your rotation by searching for the ground instead of just letting it come into view. That can lead to falling on your head.
Jump Higher, Spin Faster - KS4E
This is so facts, the body aches are no joke
as a non-martial artist, i clicked on this video thinking it would be about fooling your opponent into thinking you're about to kick them
As an MMA fighter, I think some tricking techniques would work if we put that into practice based on assessment and tests into practical fighting, also it would make your fighting style so cool, if a fighter can make it work and have in their arsenal.
I just think in future fighting style will advance to tricking and stuff.
Absolutely!
I feel like a cheat gainer axe kick could land if you do it right but would have to be fast
Ex tkd instructor - use your 360/tornado kick to cover forward distance rather than focusing on making it spin faster or kick high. Going from flat foot relaxed, covering 3/4 of the ring spinning makes people hesitate a little, and pretty safe as the spin momumtum is nullified so you can just land.
Also for being too close, make your first leg that just usually spins, ie left leg if you kick with the right, and just flick it out for an outer crescent kick, the leg can stay quite tight compared to the finishing kick.
On crescent kicks, swing and flicking it up and out rather than stiff leg swing generates a ton of power and perfect whipping motion to rattle a jaw.
Another great one is 360 front stomp kick, get your kicking leg knee high to the sky as possible, and let your weight come down as you kcik, it may feel a tad slow but your tucked kicking leg along with the jump (aim for height with this one)can bring your leg over or inside a guard and you can get great incredible connection.
Take these how you like it, just small changes i found greatly improved competing all manner of martial arts
If you do a trick in a fight, even if its 10 feat away from your opponent, if it looks cool, your opponent will likely run away.
Usually the bad guy is after an easy target, and not as likely to go after the dude who just did a back flip.
Needed this ten years ago when I was trying to learn spinny stuff on my own on TH-cam for demos 😅
And makes me wanna learn it still
7:35 it's crazy how easy and nimble he goes into those moves. Must be so fun to be able to move like that, practical or not.
Absolutely! That’s the main appeal of tricking anyway. People think martial arts is always about fighting when in reality it can be just as much about self improvement, coordination, fitness and most importantly, actual enjoyment and having fun. After all, there’s no point in practicing something if you find it to be more of a chore than a pastime
I also think that he is so good at those moves that he could make them actually work in a fight.
I"m wearing the same shirt as Zak but Earthbending University! BA SING SE REPRESENT!
Did you know that there is no war in Ba Sing Se?
being an ex-martial artist and current tricker, I seriously loved the breakdown on this! Its a fantastic deep dive into a question ive wondered myself. Good job dude!

Seth: *wants to be a Power Ranger*
#CHUBBYSURPRISED
Brian Ebersol has a wheel kick in his bag for MMA... dude's landed it too...
Listen, I know you call yourself “chubby” for most of this, but I think you’re just built! Especially doing stuff like this, you won’t be “chubby” much longer. Love it, Sensei Seth! Thanks for another banger🙌🏻🥊🔥
Any of this stuff would obviously hurt if you got hit with it, just like someone windmilling their arms would if you got caught in the face by it, the problem is landing them
I see the 720 being a good but rare change up if you do a lot of tornado kicks. Sending tornado kicks to the body then "surprise!" a fake out tornado and a powerful blow to the head
You did great with those flips Seth 😄.
Thank you for sharing ☺️.
I feel like this would be extremely effective when combined with regular Kickboxing
you can't do a 360 roundhouse if you can't do a basic roundhouse.
good technique in the basics is critical to actually achieving the trick.
Tricking is mixed with martial arts and most of those kicks can work
This palm kick style of kick is an amazing weapon to follow the momentum of a roundhouse kick that doesn't connect. It was the kick that landed on me in sparring and injured me enough to take me out of contact sports for two years. I was the dumbass who tried to shoot under a roundhouse kick and ate a straight backkick variation of that palmkick (that we nicknamed the mule kick) right in my spleen.
I feel like after someone ducks a headkick they have such an urge to counter with a double leg. If you can develop the skill to follow through the missed roundhouse pop a hand on the ground and plough open a back kick or hook kick there that could be a fight ender for a skilled opponent, not just me at 18.
When I see Zak, I'd never have thought that he can do this kind of stuff. He looks so... soft :D
Looks can deceive.
And good Job Seth!
Should have said "All right, let's turn some tricks!" right at the beginning
When Ginger Ninja Trickster taught me how to trick I was ruined for a week afterwards... so I feel you're pain pal 🤣
You should take
Up tricking more it’s really fun and has an awesome community
I can't take his hair seriously dude looks like a punk rocker
9:50 This is me trying to learn how to do a tornado kick. Ever since I saw it I have been trying my damn hardest to learn it as it is EPIC!!
I got the notification on your IG but not TH-cam. If people like seeing you get kicked around and having fun they should be your IG 🤪
*Perfect video my friend, I really enjoyed it!* 👌👌😎😎✅✅
YEAH! You started picking that up quick, I want to see you get into stunting! MOAR chubby surprises!
I'm glad he mentioned capoeira, I feel like you'd need to be good at it in order to really add tricking into a general movement that is comfortable in functionality.
Reminds me of my first Sensei, Jeff Ianuzzo. He used to be able to do cartwheel kicks in live sparring and ht the dude. And this was in actual tournaments with other Blackbelts.
tricking in fights is basically capoeria
I think these sorts of movements, if interwoven with more practical/direct movements, could actually be really effective. Seems like a decent way to throw off your opponents rhythm, and get in their head.
With good boxing and a good grappling base, the tricker would probably put up an incredible fight, being able to land acrobatic kicks and recover quickly if they didn't work out.
Every ligament in my knees tensed up on all of those spins.
You never learn a new move in a day. You build nerves during sleep. These videos should go from day 1 learning to day 7 challenges.

My LEGO figures in fight be like:
This makes my vertigo trigger lol 😅
Now this is the type of content I subscribed for lol
He looks like Chad Thundercock.
Their spinning hook kicks definitely, but not the acrobatic kicks. Just for show 👍
and for fun and to see how far you can push yourself
Raymond Daniels is one of my favorites. I wish I had a 1/10th of his talent
I've wondered about this for a while I always figured moat weren't viable other except certain grounded techniques...thanks for the awesome content brother! 🙏🏻
Raymond daniels seems to think it'll work 😂
He coulda though lol
Tricking = Capoeira
Tricking Is the next thing I need to learn. Loved this video and loved that you openly was saying you're scared and you're nervous yet still pushed through it. Motivation and inspiration right here.
I dont think the flips are gonna be useful in fights, but damn it looks good, nice video seth
3:12 Me, who trains my legs so that I can kick people like Johnny Cage: "I guess I'll be that rare few that do." 😎
This kind of technique, works as athletic preparation for martial arts , improving stamina , coordination, agility . By a direct fight point of view, are dangerous yo be used with caution.
I am gonna be honest, if you landed a full power tornado on me I'd be on the floor convulsing before the other foot landed, I think if it were to work it would be overkill.
edit: the rest of the kicks are just Capoeira and/or Taido and they all hit that against resisting opponents so they do work
Great job Seth!!! Especially not giving up very inspiring thanks bro!!!
you could stand to move forward more while turning. the first part of your turns is not forward out from the chest, that might help not to fall away from the target.
They take so much distance to set up what if your opponent just chased you as you back up to do it. Also since it takes so much to set up people could see it a mile away and just move from you entirely. Honestly I would only use it as a victory pose type thing or for intimidation.
In a local kickboxing event, one of the guys tried to land a backflip kick. He crouched down and went for it…and hit the other guy full blast in the ballz…so it “can” work…but not really legal lol
Congratulations by the way mate
Thanks Will!
man that first seth palm kick combo was graceful
This is the video I’ve been waiting for my whole life
I also have a deathly fear of flipping backwards. You did extremely well.
Capoeira
I consistently land backflip kicks. I say they are very effective.
Well we’re not all you, RYAN
Maybe one day you can be
The whole tricking thing has been a source of great consternation for me over the years. I watch these people doing all these gymnastic kinds of movements, whether empty hand, or with weapons, and I can see, from the lack of focus and intent in their movements that they have no idea how those techniques could be used in an actual self-defense situation or even IF they could be used as such. They have never been taught that aspect, just the movement and making it "look good". Glad to see someone actually looking into those movement and testing to see if some of them could be used. I would really like to see more of that kind of thing, especially in an era where so many martial arts school are getting away from practical usage of techniques in favor of just stuff that looks cool.
Yeah tricking is in absolutely no way meant for combat. Most trickers are sooky little bitches so it makes sense haha. Funnily enough you have the same name as an actual legend in the scene
Love the videos! Keep it up 🥰
Thank you for showing yourself being afraid :)
Would it hurt ... yes. Could you hit someone ... maybe. Should you try if you are actually fighting ... no.
Quick answer no. Who does a 720 in close quarters?
Wait till someone pull a weapon after they saw those coming ^^
I loved this video, but was also disturbed that 11mins of it had passed before I realized Bill Cypher was there.... watching.... everything
There is this one guy who landed a butterfly twist round in a Naska Pointfighting bout...Marc Canonizado.
Is funny that you say you have a "deathly fear" of a back flip, because in Portuguese back flip is called "salto mortal" which means "mortal jump" or, in other words, "deathly jump".

Read backwards
Dude, if you somehow landed these kicks in a streetfight. . .
You'd probably get a cool title.
Dude, the spinning wheel kick, if landed, would destroy anything it touched
Holy crap
I don't think I could do any flips - I'm terrified to leave the ground.
If you can execute a jump spinning hook kick, a spinning hook kick can be executed very easily.
Do I remember correctly, old Shotokan videos called regular attacks "tricks"?
Sensei Seth has unlocked the Acrofatic achievement (despite not really even being chubby at all...). Respect
I have made it one of my life's missions to find out the name of the PIZZA PLACE that Jesse Enkamp ate at after your, "Japanese vs. American KARATE (Sparring!)" video. He informed me that you know the location! I would REALLY appreciate it if you could let me know! I'LL SUBSCRIBE! Hahahaha
NO ! THIS IS NOT OVER! you have to get someone with protection standing getting these kicks... i dont accept a nof or an answer...
What is your background Seth, any vids of you in any combat competitions,
anybody else see the Bill Cipher in the background?
Damn that was cool to watch the progression on that backflip. Inspirational
