Tutorial - Raiz - Jeremy Marinas

[stec52207]

It's like a kick the moon backwards?

[paranoorm]

Low raiz looks like aerial

[Coerced]

Ugh this makes me CRAVE for more training!! One day I'll land a raiz this perfect, I must!

[Town2Down]

cleanest raiz ever!

[2Boios]

seems like u felt self conscious about ur teaching, but i got it real well. people who look at tutorials are already on the level so what u are sayin can be related to

[MrBobstamos]

You have the same exact last and first name as me 0.0

[SunderWolf69]

@MrBobstamos You must be pretty awesome then haha

[Unkn0wnCrew]

hes so good gravity just takes a break

[OverDevLP]

[parkourkid671]

[Antin0ob567]

@parkourkid671 You should get a keyboard with the letter ","

[YouMeWeFail]

real clean bro, real clean.

[MrJrChow]

fuckin clean...just awesome...

[BeerPowCow]

What is your best leg right or left ??=))

[HHardSStyle]

is the raiz slow mo?

[calculator027]

why the hell is he telling me its like a sideswipe. im just came from a sideswipe tutorial because it said i needed to know how to raiz first. now this guy is thinking i already know how to side swipe??

[burnrooster321]

Impossible

[kodar1994]

now a kick like that can knock someone cold? or is it just a trick that people do to look cool...?

[XGazudin]

@kodar1994

tricking is just for looks bro, but you still wouldn't want to get hit by some of the kicks they throw.

[artydraw]

17 people are fat and out of shape.....its possible

[fishforce5]

Your "low raiz" looks kindof like a flash kick 

[jbaggio2009]

Easy, yeah?.... suhahsauhsuahsuahusahusha

[LittleBuddyOB]

Do u take off and land on ur weak foot???

[TheJuunaziboy]

well raiz is a gumbi without hands, and gumbi is cw where you arch your back to "backside" but it's quite inverted stil, so i think that raiz should be exactly like he said "low raiz". good way to practise raiz is start doing those "high raizes" but i recommend that don't leave it there, train it until it's quite inverted and arched. and question, why are you doing your krhm krhm "low raiz" to wrongg side? you can't s/t out of it? :o

[zodac121]

what do u mean high one?!?!

BOTH WAS HIGH GOD DAMMIT!

[QuintenMangelschots]

I really don't get that high raiz.. I mean, you have to lift of on the wrong foot, in order to land on the right foot to be able to s/t ? Is that right ? And if so.. Would it be a matter of training both sides to lift off ?

I think the low raiz is doable, cause that's the regular lift off foot..

Any answer would be welcome ! :)

[TriCelya]

How can you hold your left leg straight during the High Raiz?

I got porblems with this. My leg is bent and makes the trick look ugly.

Is there any tip how to fix this or is it just training?

[ExileOfSand]

lol don't do this for fighting that would be stupid

[M4lign]

after this, watch the video "anis rodeo cork." 

[mAgicmot]

awesome raiz, but what's a rice?:/

[NateHitpas]

@mAgicmot It's pronounced either "raise" or "rise"

Jeremy chose to say the ladder.

[mAgicmot]

@NateHitpas i just know the same movement from capoeira. in portuguese raiz means "root". its maybe because of its look when your arms and legs seems to be anywhere... however in portuguese its more pronounced like ra-ehz... but don't worry man. call it whatever you like:)

[zomg0101]

Nice dude

[Coerced]

This has to be the cleanest and most perfect and awesome Raiz I've ever seen :)

[XGazudin]

SPEEDY KICK

[venenoadg]

the best raiz tutorial ever!!



[velebr3]

The only trickster on YT that is as cool as Epic. ^^

[CheatFate]

best raiz i have ever seen. u must get allot with that move.

[Cash4Woody]

3:10-3:11 .. xd somebody fooled xD

[VanDamme11]

Jermey just made a new move its called the raizhyperhook

[scott98712]

i did one nice one -_- now i cant do them..

[macacolaranja]

yeah but that's because he turns the other way, starting with diferent legs also

[MrFreestyle94]

with the high raiz you land with your left leg and with the low one you land with the right lol

[S7A5HER]

@MrFreestyle94 its cuz he does the low raiz on his other side

[iDarron]

man this move is so scary....

[DaRomansFoEva]

he sounded out of breathe the whole time

[daniboytheoneandonly]

if you torc the arms when you kick, and kick more behind you instead of up it twists you so it's low and horizontal and looks so angry

[NateHitpas]

@martialartist048 XMA is a PERFORMANCE based hybrid style of all martial arts. Tricking just incorporates the kicks, twists, and flips of gymnastics, martial arts, and breakdancing.

[demonic4ce]

I wonder how many times he smashed the shit out of his toes before he got this perfectly.

[TeamFlyHigh]

@martialartist048 xma is more with weapons that's why it called 'Extreme Martial Arts' tricking is al the fly kicks combined with gymnastic flips

[pippynugget]

how advanced is this technique? and how can i improve jumping height? iv noticed that i just seem to drop. gravity sucks!

[VeggieAndy]

@pippynugget

Beginner trick.

[VeggieAndy]

A beginner trick, and I guess like always, train flexibility and your legs =]

[PurePhinaticPopper]

@pippynugget Your probably alot better by now, but it's not all the jump aye... some people only have a vertical of 45 and they can do clean raiz's, me on the other hand do crappy ones and I have a 75cm vert.. It all comes together with teachnique and time. Which after 7 months you probably know by now :P

[xx2fast4youxxD]

cool and pretty easy..:)

[leochidori99]

wow, very nice, body so light

[Toppredator1]

The low and fast Raiz looks kinda like an arial.

[BustaSanchez]

a raiz IS a gumbi ariel. i agree with you

[3runbalazs]

yes bt aerial is a no handed cartwheel and raiz is a no handed gumbi ;)

[3Rton]

@Toppredator1 I have been wondering that too. Its like aerial over your back or something.

[sameersts]

What's the age limit to do this jumps,

because I am newbie to this and my age is 28

[raydredX]

@sameersts

80 years old

[Talon21500]

@sameersts

If your body can handle it, there is no limit.

[ninja666sword]

@sameersts

There is no limit man

[PiVoTLaW]

-_- i cant even do a backflip

[OxidesBR]

@PiVoTLaW Sure you can. The only thing the really holds people back is fear. Study vids and get someone to spot you and you'll have a backflip in a couple days if not sooner.

[PiVoTLaW]

ty :D

[oollaallaa]

hes amazing at raiz but none of that made any sense

[UnlockingRFOM]

sik!

[LilKennyTricks]

kewl, another thing i gotta try

[shota777]

that first 'high' one was pretty wicked...it looked like you were moving in slow motion (o_o

[108OneOhEight]

HA-EEZ.....not "rice". beautifully done though.

[3runAz]

thanks bro

[SwitzerLaandxD]

it looks so easy. . .

but its realy hard to do the first time.

very nice raiz.

Peace

[a7xfan20]

The setup looks similar to the 540 kick

[scott98712]

its the same :) its a "cheat" setup x

[nemeyeth00]

no, you should know how to do a 'gumbi', 360 kick or tornado or axe2aerial may be helpful as well.

[rusurazvan]

you gotta know how to btwist first?

[raydredX]

nope

[Synkful]

everything would be easy if i could jump like that :(

[hakuboshi1]

do a tornado tr to elan back NOTICE THE HEIGHT i randomly fell back practicing my normal tornados and WTFBBQ it went skyhigh as a mofo. So im assuming to do this tornado but kick more back and go for like a backflip. Pretty sure youll do it that way. Ill try to experiment tomorrow and see what i get.

[Magicman996]

Guys look at gaz0881's tutorial for the raiz. Its the best tutorial ever. Check it out :)

[Magicman996]

Yo thats how I learned it too ;)

[shaolin89]

this is more of a speedy kick.... Or a flip. Lmao!!!!

[FenderB3nder35]

Is there anything I should learn b4 attempting a high raiz? I got tornado kicks down but I don't see how that relates. By the way I'm new to this :D

[TheKrizzleNizzle]

If you can tornado try a cheat 360 hyper. tornado takeoff but kick with rising leg and land on it. then try arching and keeping the trailing leg straight. it will evolve from there. that's the way im learning it atm mind you i can't do it yet :)

[Bcutter]

these raizes are so damn clean and awesome

[280az]

u like slowed down like matrix style

[eggrollman24]

hey so im a left leg kicker would i have to do tha other way around cuz idk if ur using ur strong leg to spin or ur weaker leg??

[DavidBlanch0]

Left leg kicker? You should learn how to kick with both leg. Brings the body in better balance.

[eggrollman24]

hmmm i thought of that but its just weird for me to kick really hard with my right leg like in soccer or something idk how should i make it balanced?

[DavidBlanch0]

Its quite simple. Practice with both sides...

[eggrollman24]

xD true tha i was thinking tha same hahhaha but mayb ill stick to using my left but i'm pretty good at shooting with right in soccer xD

[moose11235]

Of course you should. You also should learn one side first, then the other. Using your strong side first helps prevent injuries and speeds the learning process for both sides.

[n4v3r1ck]

how long does it take to learn raiz, if u can do some basic moves like cork 540 and stuff?

[magomed90]

2 years!!

[KarateKid305]

dude a raiz is alot easier then a 540 and a cork...lol i cant even cork yet...i got my raiz the first day they taught it to me. tornado kick leaning back is pretty much the concept of it.

[gimlysadasda]

i can cork and b-twist and alot of other things but i cant seem to wrap my head aroung raiz for some reason, but u saying a tornado kick leaning back makes so much sense haha. thanks

[SeizureMan2]

Just think of it as an aerial, but instead of rotating directly over your head you rotate over your back. Sort of like a combination between an aerial and a tornado kick. Take a look at Epic's tutorial. After watching it I went out and landed my first ever attempts at a raiz right away. If you still can't do it I would recommend you practice your b-kicks and aerials because you'll need strong legs for a good raiz.

[gimlysadasda]

i tried a bunch today to gym and i think my problem is that i dnt arch my back and my legs get hooked around and i land on 2 feet

[SeizureMan2]

You'll need to be able to roll over your back with ease. So try doing some monkey flips and gradually getting your back straighter while you do more of an aerial setup.

[gimlysadasda]

at the risk of sounding dumb, whats a monkey flip? lol

[fusmusic]

the raiz is like the funnest trick i love doing, its like the most easiest and floaty, fun trick ever, seriously...

the only thing is practice practice practice, and eventually end up doing one like Jeremy's here

[SunSundae]

is the low rise similar to slant gainer or ,free runner kick the moon , ?

[LSMonkeys]

no its not

[trickertodd]

not at all

[P4Tl2ICk]

It's sort of like an aerial.

[greytale]

That is an excellent point... almost like what could be called an "inverted aerial".

Kjer has a really cool tutorial on what he calls "inverted raiz", which I think is essentially the "low" version Jeremy (Prodigy) is talking about.

The beauty of tricking is how style and changes *ADD* to things and make tricking even BETTER. Versus the gymnastics industry where points are taken *away* for deviation of form--ditto for wu shu technicals.

--Nova

[ThisIsntRyan]

Holy shit! You're amazing!

[ch0wsiub0w]

btw, is that hook you do in the beginning of high-raiz necessary? or is it what you do for momentum?

[sourcefighterbizzyd]

its not necessary...it is just for momentum and the wheel kick looks better in combos...but to learn raiz, its better you dont do it, because when you do the hook kick you cant concentrate so much on the technique...but thats my opinion...

the best way is to drill this move;)

[gimmicksz]

man i cannot raiz to save my life . when evr i attempt it i get lazy and just do a 180 spin vertically..

[BIueLettuce]

dam u guys are popular feel proud :p

i live in SJ area too

[ch0wsiub0w]

dayum, high-raiz looks sexy xD

[CJKoda]

agreed

lol.

[asvenildo]

I have 15 years...

Can I learn this?

[TeamEvoMedia]

yes you can

[alexTVmedia]

hell yeah. start right away bro

[AZNsammyle]

Hey is it better to spin left or right?

You jump when you throw your arms in the air right?

[johnedwardshirley]

depends which side feels more natural and yes you take off when your arms get up and pull you off the ground

[oblivion2muzik]

yknow whats even better?

jeremy's t/d raiz... they are effing legit.

[michielgrillet]

NICE! I learned to do this two days ago, and my knee is still hurting :) so watch out for that!

If you're learning this and trying to do this without a spotter, you really have to think of arching your back and stretching your legs... these "details" make raiz look cool... GOOD LUCK!

[BestVideosEver01]

AMAZING.

[vikinghallen]

OK!!! love your high raize!!<3

[chinesegaimer]

it's very cool, but I would like the same tutorial in french It may be cooler! very good trickzter Prodiguy!

[kruspyn]

the best tutorial , the best raiz

[KnappDrumm3r]

those look tight.

[whiplash674]

this vids used 4 the triktionary on club540

[venenoadg]

The best tutorial ever! Great job!

[Doodlebugyro]

ok looking on the side swipe tutorial, and the guy says you need rise, looked on this and he is asuming you know sideswipe lol. Catch 42 or something :D

[mel2thegibson]

his raiz's are so smooth. do you have to know the splits to do a low raiz?

[joetheazl]

no, its more like the timing.

[Kazi900o]

you can't "know" how to do splits. It comes with flexibility and stretching, not learning it

[xxblackskyxx]

i hate when people say ''know'' how to split.like its something you have to read about

[Rikk1825]

yeah totally. it's like saying "learning the splits" rofl

[shadowmuniplitive]

It does require proper hip positioning.

[xxblackskyxx]

i can do the low raiz now.check out my channel!

[alexTVmedia]

for as long as i can remember, i've found this trick somewhat extremely difficult. but i finally got it, the problem was i was doing them with my dominant leg, my right. so if your having problems, consider turning the other way.

[joetheazl]

yeah, if u wanna s/w gainer out of da raiz, u might as well kick wit ur left so u can use ur right to kick 4 the gainer, if ur a righty!

[joetheazl]

sorry i meant s/t, not s/w lol

[DrewlingDog]

why is he doing his "high raiz" with a right foot setup and his low one with the left foot?

[alexTVmedia]

probably because low raiz is closer to the ground so you want to get over and around faster, where as high raiz youre far off the ground so you can take your time....or float

[trickaholic]

lol i like the sound effects he added

[skwalll]

00:37 - 00:40

Pure beauty move. Awesome.

[ElBboyGio]

nice raiz! can you please watch my video and tell me what im doing wrong ?_?

[joetheazl]

this is not his profile, dude.

[bboydynamix]

o.O

[Jason11189]

can anyone help me? i followed all the steps he told me in this video and i was able to flip like him but i can't jump that high with one leg in the air like he did... any suggestions? o_O

[jamnin94]

you should get the height from kicking your leg not just trying to muscle the flip by jumping off one foot lol :)

[tkdmuko]

It's very smooth the way he does it.

[UrbanFl0w]

at least you've been put it on slow motion

[joetheazl]

make sure u also kick that kickin leg BEHIND you and make sure u kick it up FIRST THEN PUSH!!

[miamimagicians]

This is amazing! I can't believe how good you are!

[cloacking666]

imho, he can do a very nice raiz. but, his explanation were'nt quite helpful. maybe it's because raiz has a very awkward sensation when executing it, made it hard for people to explain it properly.

[p5681]

he does this stuff and talks ant the same time

!

[pinoysshadow]

which is easier to learn the high or low one. which one can u use in a combo

[rickyorton]

Personally, the higher one is the easy version for me (the 1st one he did), I kind of considered it an delayed tornado kick, w/ the kicking leg kicking as a roundhouse kick and your laid back not looking at your target, your looking at the floor instead.

[kellenbattles]

Holy Freaken Crap!!!!!!

I just shit myself

[Demonmod12]

hahah lol i know its crazy

[Demonmod12]

how can i make sure i can lad properly it looks really hard to spot the ground

[kellock71]

throw it on a mat or tramp, dude

[SebbeDaNinja]

I wanna learn raiz, it's too bad that it's so scary... :P

[SStep4]

It's not scarry :P I mean you won't land on your head trying this move ...

[lewis490]

thats awesome dude ... comment at the end, of course not in a fight, cuz that would be stupid -- LOL ... wicked tutorial

[maxedge13]

can u fly... ?

[shaolin89]

"ofc not in a fight, that would be stupid". Lmao

[VanDamme11]

Prodigy has the best raizes in the business no one does it better.

[1curis]

James Yu [Crazy Asian] and Mike Scalco actually have better

[joetheazl]

THEIR ALL THE SAME!!! nothin is better than the other!

[amikamikaze]

[crusaderhafiz]

omg u look like floating in air

[joetheazl]

i asked scalco for help on this move. he told me that u need to push ur hips up in order get height and land upright. its like humping the air!!! LOL!!!

[smashingFATbabies]

the high raiz he stalls and looks like hes floating hella nice

[drunkenlilTIFFY1990]

looks like ur dancing

[8potta]

The high raiz was cooler
