The butterfly kip is only to get your chin over the bar the most times in the shortest time. That's it. The case for functionality is very weak.
But this dude is doing them pretty much as well as they can be done, beautiful circular form anf minimal shoulder slack on the way downand, and I feel like he probably can and does do strict work on the bar all the time. So, respect where it's due.
People dont understand that some Crossfit workouts have you doing well over 100 pull ups. There is NOOOOO WAY you are going to do 100 perfect form pull ups, especially if you are racing against a clock. These are designed to get the pull up done as fast as possible while keeping your full body activated.
This isn't meant to do SOLELY the back, as in a strict, back of hand facing you, pullup. This is meant to be a full-bodied pullup. You get a crap-ton of AB workout as well, as chest and back. You should try these before you go talking trash.
There are alot of crossfit haters out there, but until you go and do one of these workouts, try not to hate on it!
Any of the crossfit affiliates offer a free class. Go in, get your ass kicked, and get hooked!
Ahhhh god people with the "this is cheating" "this won't work ur back as well as strict" "what muscles does this work"..........IT DOESN'T MATTER ABOUT THOSE THINGS. Butterfly pullups and kipping pullups are designed to get ur chin above the bar as fast as possible with as little energy used as possible. Not to work your muscles or show off at how many pullups u can do.
@fallingfeathers69 in crossfit the idea is to do a prescribed workout as fast as you can, take "Fran" for instance which is 21-15-9 of thrusters and pullups, so u do 21 thrusters then 21 pullups then 15 and 15 etc. If i can do 21 unbroken pullups faster then the other guy then my time is going to be better. The idea isn't to build muscle they are to be used as part of the WOD inorder to improve your overall time.

Well, all I can say is that I think this is cheating and not "proper" pull ups :P... but then again, why not use the technique if it's allowed at the comps =). Personally I prefer the "old fashion" pullups
Man, this guy is quality at explaining. I won't try these at my gym tho' since they don't have a proper set-up where things won't fall over if I try these :P

@Jaikano out of honest curiosity then, whats the point of just seeing how fast you can get your chin over the bar with as little energy as possible?
