Flat ground jump and spin

[A_Whelan]

I know there have been threads on this before, how big of a rotation can you do on flat jumping up? Well anyway I was stumbling through videos and came across this Soviet "breakdance" video.

Fast forward to 1:38 and watch the guy jump and spin, any idea how big he is spinning each jump? Looks like 720 to me, that's crazy on it's own, but the fact he does it 14 or 15 times.... crazy. Someone should try to repeat this and make a video of the failure that will commence.

There is also some other crazy shit like spinning on their knees and the bent down foot kicking... things.

540 easy, cant get much past that

 

[funk.]

I take it your talking about sans skis?

720. I've done a 9 a couple times running and like using my leg for momentum

 

[Billek]

My friend can seven no problem, i dont know about nines though.

 

[b-kul]

i can 720 no sweat.

 

[Leeyum]

cork 3 no prob and both way sevs

 

[jack_weisman]

how can you cork 3 on flat ground? yea i can 7 and misty but thats usually of like benches and tables.

 

[H0NKY]

I can 5 but stop there...

 

[KAS]

[heFF]

[threejay]

rightside double fronts out off a wheelchair first try bolts

 

[quixotic]

I saw a youtube video not to long ago of some martial arts guy doing a cork 10... it was rediculous. He took like 2 steps, used his leg for momentum, and then cork 10'd and landed back on his feet. Crazy shit.

 

[eastAR5]

i can 7 standing still pretty ezz and i cant even spin that fast...

 

[ahmedthesailor]

wtf. are you all black? i can 3, 5 but i cant dunk on a 8 foot net and im 6 foot

 

[-Nick-]

5s are easy and the most i can get is 630

 

[dave44]

A lot of guys on NS are able to spin 7's off the ground... I have trouble getting more than 630 though

 

[teleTay]

i can get 540 easily and 630 on a good jump

 

[joey.]

Hahaha i was reading this thread, thinking that you were talking about with skis on and i see all these guys talking about flat ground 5s and i got a bit confused. But yea i can 7 if you are talking about just shoes on.

 

[comeatmebro]

7 easily...but 9's i can't do, i tried a few times and almost snapped my ankle in half. mistys also off of flat ground.

 

[dave44]

Running or no?

 

[BootySpunk.]

i can 5 no prob but i cant jump worth shit and wouldnt even know how to think about doing a misty or cork

 

[TheButterHashira]

7 sometimes. I broke my pinky doing 5s in my room last year.

 

[TheQuailman]

Icaould do 5s easy last summer, but now I thnk I might just be able to get the 5

 

[emopoppins]

not much for me past regular 5.

 

[JaphyRyder]

i can prolly get to like 810, and can frontflip if i run

 

[ECski]

That, my friend, is pathetic

 

[Piste.Off]

720, i try 9s but i always roll over on my ankles and eat shit

 

[hyllengren]

its just to use youre leg for momentum, i can di nines

 

[TWoods]

epicc crane cam

 

[aidansheahan]

[Bodeau.]

I can 540 off the ground, and i can misty off the ground too if im running

 

[james44]

i can 5 both ways off the ground and backflip and i can do corks/mistys and all that shit off ledges.

dont think i can to a 7 though

 

[Sholte]

i can 720.

 

[Barmski]

ive done 9's and gotten a 10 around but died. its really not hard to do a 720 if you are pretty coordinated.

 

[Balto]

i can 630 max

 

[freestyler540]

720's

 

[crussell]

.

 

[BootySpunk.]

how does one go about l;earning a flatland front flip? or cork/misty shit?

 

[dom_uk]

Get them on a trampoline with out bounce, and then just do it on a hill,preferably into long grass/something a bit soft. easiest ones are front flips(but quite hard to land) and lincolns like run step 90 and use your momentum to flip you.

iv only ever done front flips though properly on flat land, and that was on a hill.

 

[Ski_Unit_19]

[BEARS.]

[BootySpunk.]
