[kcaio0o]

@louiscorkman thanks :))

[ShurikeBoy]

Yo Kaio, do you have tips for the hula-hoop movement?

I only swing my legs, but i think with the hip movement my flare would be better.

maybe u can check my flare :D

[awesomeasiananthony]

very nice tutorial.....one of the cleanest flares ive ever seen

[kcaio0o]

@awesomeasiananthony thanksss :)

[awesomeasiananthony]

@kcaio0o how long did it take u to get flares? ive worked on flares for like a week and i got 1 pretty decent one, i want atleast 3 by the end of next month....anytips to get higher?

[kcaio0o]

@awesomeasiananthony for me was the same like u :) ..to get higher u just need a lot of practice and kick your legs high :)

[awesomeasiananthony]

@kcaio0o yeah i know what u mean, but that part where u get to the back of the flare starting a new one kills me.....i need to kick harder and higher at that point, plus holding it there.....but right now its low and i cant hold it there soo i end up jus standing after that part, but ill work on it

[sk8boarder125]

Yo kaio! I can finally do like 10 flares, but the 7th to 10th flares feel really heavy, and i dont use my hips in flare... i can't understand that movement, i just keep using my legs to whip... Am i supposed to imagine like a hula hoop during the flare or smth? Do help me see my latest flares too :D Thanks!

[TheRelentlez]

Hey, the exercise at 7:48 is it suppose to hurt your pelvis when you first start it?? Cuz mine cracks and hurts when i do it lol.

[kcaio0o]

@TheRelentlez :S mmm no, i don't think so... it's strange... maybe u do something wrong... i don't know...

[TheRelentlez]

@kcaio0o oh okay thanks. I guess my pelvis is just messed up =/

[MishkaSky]

@TheRelentlez Your pelvis cracks because your hips are not flexible enough, you need to stretch and try to get splits. Do the butterfly stretch, it should help, then move on to do the full split. Peace!

[BboyZeus95]

man that exercise @ 7:48 taught me how to do the second round and multipules :D

[kcaio0o]

@BboyZeus95 yeah man!! nice :))

[OwenHillJr]

I keep crashing when I do my flares, i'm gonna try out your tips next time i'm in the studio. I think part of it is my hand placement, and I swing my right leg too high like you showed as a common mistake..Thanks!

[kcaio0o]

@OwenHillJr you're welcome :)

[sk8boarder125]

Hey kaio are u right handed? :O

[kcaio0o]

@sk8boarder125 heeey! mmm..i try to be both right and left handed xD ...my airchair is better with my right arm, but handhops and elbowhops are better with the left

[sk8boarder125]

@kcaio0o Holy shit you're dope :DDDDDD AWESOME :D btw i m awaiting your munch mill tutorial :D Keep up the sick powermoves :D

[kcaio0o]

[AnnoyingBeats]

@kcaio0o LOL it's basically just saying "fucking"

[kcaio0o]

@AnnoyingBeats haha ok XD sorry

[puanrog1]

you have long legs lol

[kcaio0o]

@puanrog1 haha yes maybe xD

[morzdgreat]

I can't practice my flare because I didn't sleep properly :( I don't have energy

[Blackviolinist24]

How do you get higher in the back I'm averaging 4 to 7 and I believe its bc I'm not high enough in the back

[kcaio0o]

@Blackviolinist24 Kick hard your legs high and swing your pelvis at the same time :) ...is not immediate to learn, u need much practice

[Blackviolinist24]

I can V-legged planche pushup sets of 2 and I can press but I suck at holding my hands in a flare position while trying to press any tips to make that easier I have flares now but I need to go up

[kcaio0o]

@Blackviolinist24 mmm try to use your pelvis and not the strenght :)

[Blackviolinist24]

@kcaio0o one more question when I push for halos/airflare/elbowairflare my swing stops is there anyway to mentally get it to do both bc it makes it hard to catch and continue

[kcaio0o]

@Blackviolinist24 I should see how you doing it :/ ...maybe u have to kick faster or higher... if u can, upload a video and show me :)

[Blackviolinist24]

@kcaio0o Im going to try to put a vid soon but I got the pelvis and both legs in V-form swing at one time cleaning up my flare up to 10 now but imma still put a vid for the flares and airflare help wish me luck

[kcaio0o]

@Blackviolinist24 Okk brro i will see :)

[mrbboysew]

[mrbboysew]

[bowaleedmr0as]

You look great at air flare tut.

[bowaleedmr0as]

Can you make a barrel windmill tut......and I want to ask you question......do you still studing or you have finished school and every thing

[kcaio0o]

@bowaleedmr0as yes i will make :) ...i finished school now :) now i study design and graphics but i'm still a beginner :D

[MyWaysCantBeCopy]

thanks bro just one thing , when I flare I do one of the first common mistakes I get my leg around my feet are in front of me but then I fall on my 2 hand hard and cant keep it going. you know why I cant get the first one down???

[kcaio0o]

@MyWaysCantBeCopy mmm u have to kick your legs harder... and remember to swing your pelvis at the same time.. but the most important thing is practice a lot :P

[bowaleedmr0as]

u r my best breakdancer.....love you.

[kcaio0o]

@bowaleedmr0as :D i'm glad, thx!

[bowaleedmr0as]

Do you play sk8board

[bowaleedmr0as]

I do ...I can ollie,pop shovit,kickflip,board slide,heelflip,nose slide and finaly 180 flip.

[kcaio0o]

@bowaleedmr0as nice :D

[bowaleedmr0as]

Do you play sk8board

[kcaio0o]

@bowaleedmr0as no, but i like it and some years ago i played with sk8 :D

[bowaleedmr0as]

WoW very cooool . What is the time now in your country

[kcaio0o]

@bowaleedmr0as I'm in Italy, now is 19:18

[bowaleedmr0as]

Can you send me a picture of you I want to put as a back ground

[kcaio0o]

@bowaleedmr0as hah really? :D ...ok, you can download my pictures from my facebook page on this link: facebook.com/pages/Kai0/466232­630293?sk=photos or search kai0 on facebook :)

[bowaleedmr0as]

can you give me some tips to go higher

[kcaio0o]

@bowaleedmr0as if u want to go higher u have to kick more with the legs and swing at the same time with your pelvis up... it's just practice... u could try in this order: flare to headstand, flare to elbow, flare to handstand... just practice a lot :)

[kcaio0o]

@MegaCool180 because you don't kick your legs up... at the begining you kick and then you just let your legs fall down.. u have to always kicking... and always move your pelvis, don't do it just in the begining and then stop... try to continue :) ...you have to use your legs and your hips both :)

[kcaio0o]

@MegaCool180 o.o what's wonderupsb? why u give up? just practice maaan!

[esQo0020]

[kcaio0o]

[sk8boarder125]

[sk8boarder125]

Hey bboy kaio, i can do around 4-5 flares now, but i feel really low in the back.. any tips on how to get higher in the back? :)

[kcaio0o]

@sk8boarder125 good!! just try to get higher with your hips and legs... and train some transitions like flare to headspin, flare to elbowtrack/elbowspin...

[sk8boarder125]

@kcaio0o yo thanks my flares are way higher now , but rounds have dropped to 2 D:

[kcaio0o]

@sk8boarder125 don't worry man, just practice :)

[sk8boarder125]

@kcaio0o thanks :)

[zBabydino]

[BboyViro21]

[yisapi]

bro, when the first step, i swing my right leg to the left, and my left leg have to kick up. but after i kick up my left leg, my right leg falls. help please :)

[kcaio0o]

@yisapi if ur legs fall u need to kick harder and faster :)

[BboySideKick]

Do u train inside a shopping mall?

[kcaio0o]

@BboySideKick hey! no, this is train station, i train here just sometimes... u can see my training place in my other videos :)

[Dab1sh0p]

How do you flare to airflare/1990? My flares are high but i can't seem to pull them up, any tips?

[kcaio0o]

@Dab1sh0p mmm I think u should learn flare to elbow (elbowtrack or elbowspin) before, because is easier but the moviment is the same, when you will learn it, flare to airflare will be easy

[Dab1sh0p]

@kcaio0o My flares are weird, it seems that i don't kick my left, i go clockwise, i just swing them both simultaneously and im not sure how to fix it, i have a video of me flaring if you want to see what i mean

[kcaio0o]

@Dab1sh0p send me the link or put as a response video please :)

[Dab1sh0p]

@kcaio0o /watch?v=vFg4-JdsAgE im the one in the white

[Sukadipa]

come fai a imparare le powermoves?? cioè provi una finchè la impari o le provi tutte insieme??

[kcaio0o]

@Sukadipa le powermoves non si imparano, son già dentro di noi, bisogna risvegliarle... XD no, a parte gli scherzi, ne provo un po' alla volta assieme e provo le combo con le powermoves che voglio imparare... è meglio non provarne troppe in una volta o troppe poche... prendi ad esempio le 3 moves che ti interessano di + e prova solo quelle finché non le impari, poi passa ad altre... questo è il mio metodo, ovviamente non so se è il migliore e so che non tutti fanno così...

[Sukadipa]

@kcaio0o  grazie faro come mi hai detto...

[HeyItzPeter]

can you do a 2000, or 1990 tutorial that would help a lot thanks :]

[TriesTeamCrew]

@HeyItzPeter yes! now i'm making a windmill tutorial, and more moves coming soon! :)
