Dear Epic, Please reply, could you do a tutorial on the different variations of kip up to help me get better? I'm sorry for asking but your tutorials are the best/easiest so yeah haha.

[mpchapkido]

wow that room would be my heaven.

[FlyBoY8200]

[chelsea97mimo]

[JoonyMoonyHomeVids]

[peterjbark]

Just a tornado, no big deal.

[harrisongrace1213]

[diaperreload]

[charjaboy123456789]

[weby121]

Its funny how he finds a tornado siren is going off and he dosent care he just keeps going.....Man i would have been GONE!!l lol id be running

[SilentShit9]

0:07 "hi"



[Gangstar283]

i can't :(



[randy10211021]

i feel so accomplished. out of the hundreds of tricks epic can do this is the ONE that i can do a lil bit cleaner than him lol

[AOJamm]

i never knew it was called a kip up, i've been calling it "ninja recovery" for years

[TheSuperUber]

If someone could respond to this it would be awesome. So when I do it I can't get all the way up. What am I doing wrong

[dyo1001]

Thats a Tornado Siren...

*I'll keep going anyway*

SIren in the back for the rest of video lol

[ShortPandaFilms]

Does anyone know the move where you lay on the ground and swing your leg into a circle and kinda swing up to a standing position?

[Eddietheallrounder]

Epic's kip up tutorial is great for the purpose of getting the basics covered, but if anyone wants to progress further, I have a tutorial that focuses on maximising the hang time you get off of your kip up so that you land with your legs as straight as possible to attain that extra clean look

[FNHot]

Good tutorial, and i like how you end it with "I didnt have anyone to teach me" and "play with it" ... best advice for anything like this. We all have different bodies, and what works for some doesnt work for others.

[CreamOnBagel]

just like how you roll like that ;)

[Privetlifeof14]

[TripleThreat01032000]

[ricom8]

[hotdog2020]

Excellent teacher!!

[Reecey42]

:o thanks so much epic!!! i can do it now :D

[TheJamajkaganja]

Kto z Polski?

[noahRKO]

it is a pretty easy move actually. i though it is hard, but that was before really :) Now i can do it easely. Just don't start on the floor, where there is cement or wood or something. First try to do it on the bed, where it's soft. What you want to do if you want a perfect kick up, is to use your hands at first. IF you learn it , then go on as you wish. But for the begginers, use your hands. It's not hard at all, you don't need to push very hard... just use them, you won't get up by your self

[XmenPlayTheXbox]

I learned this on my own when i was 9 :)

[mrhenleyjohnson]

i leard how to do it after i broke my BACK TWICE! other than that i got it

[Witchcraft96]

hahaha outside is tornado and this guy is showing how to do kip up??? i would run to save my head xP btw nice video, learned it thanx :D



[emperorintellect]

I used to do these pretty well naturally when I was younger. My gf at the time always loved seeing it:)

[azza1145]

I dislocated my patella doing this lol. Just a bad combo of socks on a floor with bad grip, lower half of leg slipped to one side and... pop.

[YamEruDesu]

this is what i love about parkour videos , commenters don't argye and all , they're very helpful and nice :)

[gus7186]

[AdventureMan07]

[narobi34]

[waledmalik2010]

[doodledoo1231]

[klaus0877]

[wendmooca]

[afromusician1]

Damn tornado siren was scary :O

[kimedward01]

my problem is i always bump my back at the cement. i can't push my hand up. >.< help please? i can't avoid it.

[WolfHobbitVideos]

Hey, man. Your kip up tutorial is great. I just learned it and it only took me about 10 tries. Thanks for the video

[xNeonGamiingx]

OMFG I JUST DID IT :DDD

[aditjavelin]

You upload this video with a same date of my birthday :D

[TheGogitta]

i can do a kip-up completely, but i always put my hands to my side to keep myself suspended. is that wrong, or is it tolerated?

[terokalshere]

@TheGogitta No, if it feels comfortable & if it helps then it's not wrong, it's your style.

[ne0l0]

I learned this back in the day :) I think I did it by mistake when I got mad once...lol

[EAGLES6192]

When I try this, I keep on making myself go too far forward. So basically, I almost do a front flip from my back... haha, Any suggestions on how to land on my feet, not my face. By the way, thanks for making this. I couldnt do a kip up all that well before, but you make some great tutorials.

[thebrunettebox]

[akacrank777]

[Diablos2193]

I'm having difficulties in lifting my shoulders and i'm crashing my spine while trying to lift up... what is wrong with? why can't I? :(

[KungFighters]

I didnt learn this at kung fu!!

[Phlipse10]

every time i try this i land on my shoe lases:)

[Thsezar]

Epic has done a great job breaking down the steps of Kip up. But for people who want more knowledge on Kip up or wanna improve i have a tutorial of Kip up regarding technique of it. I have gone in as much important details as possible. Please feel free to check it out.

Thumbs up so people can see.

[halecogabriel]

keep pressing 2 =)))) his a frog =)))

[shawkins3971]

I tried doing this and i got it on my like third try and after i did it like 4 times my right knee hurt really bad

[shawkins3971]

@shawkins3971 and it hurts every time i do it now do you know how to make it not hurt?

[Thsezar]

@shawkins3971 To be honest. At my first try my stomach, neck, legs and back hurt a lot. But as time passed by, I recovered & Pain was no more.Now, it feels natural. So, It is better to first recover, but still train hard.

[shawkins3971]

@Thsezar Thanks I'll try it and if your tip works, I'll subscribe some of your videos.

[sp3rx25]

take your legs behind head and use cinetic power stand up.. i learned it in 5 minit on bed.. and on 6. min i dont need use arms.. only with cinetic power and legs ;)

keep training.. never give up ;)

[Thsezar]

When I started I was afraid to even kick and always landed on my back when I did kick and here I am now, Kip up is second nature, and can do rubberbands, no handed, etc pretty easily.

"JUST REMEMBER EVERY HERO WAS ONCE A ZERO"

[afran17]

@Thsezar AHAHAH so tru

[waledmalik2010]

@Thsezar i tried my best but having a problem on pushing my hands up after reading the comments that the learnt to do this in 10 minutes i m jealous....

[Zambagodian]

@Thsezar thats not true. THE NORTH KOREAN DECTATOER HAS A HERO FROM BIRTH. sadly kim jong ill died 2 days ago. RIP KIM JONG ILL!!!!

[Zambagodian]

@Zambagodian jokes he is a fucking retart and his head looks like a fucking sushi

[ruben95786]

question i broke my wrist what do i do now

[PokkoizPokko]

Hi, sorry for my english but I'm italian and I will try to speak right. It's about one week that I try to learn the kip up. I saw a lot of videos, but your is much usefull then others. So, I can do all but I'm in the situation that you explain from 3:10 minutes. I can't understand what you said, can you write what you said? This will help me a lot.

Thanks

[Dtempist]

is it a good idea to practice this on a trampoline or will it make it harder for make to learn on solid ground

[55clownface]

thanks alot before i watched this I would always land on my knees,but now i can do it alot better

[Gazmqu333]

I was in the middle of practicing a kip up and I farted so I messed up and cracked up laughing! XD

[123ismail1231]

do you need to be flexibal to do a kip-up?

[JVmaster101]

@123ismail1231 not EXTREMELY flexible, but you should be able to be in a back bridge position and do a crunch

this move is actually pretty easy, just try it on your bed first or something like that :P

[123ismail1231]

@JVmaster101 nah i already know how to do this move i i even know how to do it with no hands which is the advanced way, i was just wondering if you need to be flexible to do it coz someone told me that you need to be flexible to do this and im not that flexible.

[Thsezar]

@123ismail1231 No, just get the guts to try it & flexibility will follow. Although it gets easier to learn if flexible enough but it's not compulsion.

[123ismail1231]

@Thsezar and is it true that you cant learn how to do the splits if you don't know how to do it after the age of 12?

[Thsezar]

@123ismail1231 False! I have seen a 28 year old guy started doing splits and after 2 years he was able to do it. Flexibility is something many lack but if you train hard it will be yours eventually.

[123ismail1231]

@Thsezar i am 14 now, so how long do you think it will take for me learn how to do the splits because people say you can learn it within a week and some say that you learn it within a month.

[Thsezar]

@123ismail1231 It depends on How much you train, how you train. You may take 2 weeks but you may also take two years or more. Since you're young start now & stop worrying about the future. Eventually it will come. " It takes years to get perfect splits & years longer to apply it " Master Ugway

[123ismail1231]

@Thsezar lol, but po in kung fu panda done them straight away, and yeah i understand now.

[EVILMANGO321]

Every time I try this, I cant get myself vertical. I can get my feet on the ground, but I am still laying in the air, and I land on my back. Anything that can help?

[Crazy1121Dance]

Thank you!! I've been trying to learn how to do this aaaaall summer!!

[YAPOWER3]

u look really fit without being SUPER muscular

[YAPOWER3]

u look really fit

[TheLivessr]

*stops*.....theres a tornado siren going......*ok soo

[abhishiekdakvi]

i am getting many problems in doing that

help me

[deltacompony12]

thank you so much your my favorite move tutorialist.... i'm making a fighting movie so this helped me alot...... my first time doing it without any tutorial u never used my hand but now I do... thank you!!!

[JRkia]

hmm...i really wonder if you could squat flat footed O.o~ since ur always squating using the frog style

[TheGogitta]

because of these drills, i can kip up no hands :D

[simgakappa]

Be sure to plant your feet where your hips were on the floor

[octaviez]

well, just learned the kong, on to this one, man i should have bought some type of mat to practice

[hellboy60031]

what happened at 0:55?

[amplifiedlogic]

@hellboy60031 top left corner says it

[hellboy60031]

@amplifiedlogic my bad i didnt see that srry

[hellian1975]

@hellboy60031 he said it, a tornado siren

[manhthieugia95]

does it works?

[Riku77Nobody]

So I know this is an advanced move and Im not sure what the real name is but could you make a tutorial of a reverse kong to backflip or show one in slow-mo for me to practice?

[Ihdc1]

i learned a method where you your thighs and not the ground

[dominicaquino22]

when i do this i land on my feet nd stay up for half a second but my back is not high enough so i fall back down. what am i doing wrong? is it because my abs are not strong enough or is it my form?

[Epic1]

@dominicaquino22 lolz You answered your first question already. To find ur second... pay attention to your body and feel it... control ur momentum.

[dominicaquino22]

@Epic1 i can land it easily now :D

[Thsezar]

@dominicaquino22 Perhaps you didn't hook your feet tightly, if you did you would have fall forwards rather than backwards.

[sk8inforjezus]

@dominicaquino22 well are you kicking hard and at the same time pushing up your hands and at the same time curling your legs

[sk8inforjezus]

@sk8inforjezus and for you second question i dont have abs im actually a lil over weight

[karatecatdog]

can you teach the 180 kip up. i can only land on my knees when i try. think i'm missing something

[ninoboy213]

After watching your tutorial.. I can now do this :p

[Sietse62]

I would not recommend doing this in a combat situation. With most martial arts you learn a backward roll. If you land on your back, so your falling backwards. Finishing that with a backward roll is much more natural then a kip up. I learn how to do it because its stylish. Like most of us I think. :-)

[WantedProductionzzz]

this is well annoying...a can push with my legs but just not with my arms :s

[axeldemiseblade]

@Epic I cannot get this move down lol I have been trying for a year now and so far I can only do it off something knee high,any advice?

[caGh0s7]

Thanks for the vid Epic, was wondering, how far do you usually have to straighten your arms until you bring them up? I can't seem to bring my shoulders and chest up when i try this.

[TheHennProductions]

fml i did it and landed straight back on my back

[Epic1]

@TheHennProductions if it makes u feel any better the first time i tried, I too landed on my back. =D

But go back to the drills and keep doing those to build the control and muscle memory... and work your way back up.

[UnipsychleProduction]

@Epic1 I am working on the drills and am slowly improving, but I would like to know...

How long did it actually take YOU until you landed your first successful kip up?

[DpeBo6ogxu]

Hi! Thanks for the tutorial! Mastered that! Actually this is the first trick I learned. I wonder does it have a progression into any other trick?

[The3adama]

hey epic i did it after 4 tries xD woooow

[gta4fan1013]

Wow i need help with this anytips

[thefireedc]

5:06 it wasnt at alllllslowmotion ... but it still positive very cool

[Zuionify]

@epic1

good tutorial, but i think you could improve your kip up. your are landing very low :) i think if you try to look back as long as you can you arch your back and land straight up. looks much more impressive and feels better. :) just try it its reaaally easy if you can do a normal kip up :D

[Epic1]

@Zuionify I'll have to try this idea should I ever take the kip up more seriously. I just don't fancy the trick... but I'll try ur idea out and see the difference.

[Ihdc1]

@Epic1 could you please do a tutorial for the star kip?

[Epic1]

@Ihdc1 a star kip?!?!?

[DavidOfCrown]

This is the only thing i can do!

I can do this when i was 11 i don't know why xD

[eddie3run]

keep pressing 8!! =D

[shoalinstudent]

epic your awesome. Thank you

[FangedBeast]

Epic, just a question, if that siren was live, why didn't you do anything :S
