[zakhaimid99]

Hey epic, im 12 i can break it down into 2 steps all the way round onto the wall then off but i just cant get it in whole. how do u do it?

[milomaster01]

@zakhaimid99 i had the same problem on a rail but i could do it well on a wall it was mainly fear but it could also be that youre leading with your hips instead of your shoulders i used to do that and it made the rotation feel awkward hope that helped......

[911middleman]

Thumbs up if u noticed his sweaty ass

[TheD3xtorial]

@911middleman it gives a whole new meaning to the name sweat pants

[lifeguard2277]

[barenobis]

[Donald6309]

[tryftryf1994]

i tried to do a wall spin after 2 years and i did it.such an amazing feeling!

[iskatelikeanoob]

i can do it vertical on a wall is it still the some trick

[Donald6309]

@iskatelikeanoob basicly yes

[mellomet]

Can you do a Reverse palm spin tutorail ? please ?

[Epic1]

@mellomet same concept, just turn your body then create and control the momentum.

[Benijermin]

Is it weird that I can do a wall spin but not a palm spin...? :P

[TheRuneSlayer]

@Benijermin same here, I think its cause im used to pushing against something instead of down on something

[Benijermin]

@TheRuneSlayer Okay, cool. I think I was the only one! :P

[M200InTeRvEnTiOnPro]

1:20. . . . did you crap your pants?

[Chanceorain]

I can do this fine on walls like the one shown in the video, but have issues when I try on bars/rails. Are there any good ways to train this movement on rails? It's hard to get to the safety vault part because I'm afraid of falling backward off the rail.

[Yogev3Run]

i watched this tutorial one month ago, practice this on my bed a lot and now i can do it on a wall ! ^_^ thanks epic !

[jesus042]

I'm going to try this in my room right now.

[joyrell14]

man ur my idol..ur the beast..xd

[Stabby543]

these videos deserve more views

[adamchris1992]

i make it like 3/4th of the way through the turn on the edge of my bed so i should be able to completely do it on something more "concrete"?

[skateprince101]

Thumbs up if you're watching this in 2011.... oh wait

[Deat137]

Where is the gym u practice parkour? state and city

[kaffetzGR]

[xZant15]

[aslPL0X]

Did you know his ass is wet? 1:20

[coolshariq]

I agree, just I pick the moves by watching as well, instead of somebody teaching me, by watching mind picks it up and also guys PRACTICE , PRACTICE , PRACTICE and have FUN :)

[PKnSTUFF]

how did u get on wfpf

[Taylin1000]

I don't have a place to train for this.

[Sunstrike900]

My shoulder hurts when im doing this i think im doing it wrong

im doing it on my bed =/

[123ismail1231]

are you left handed?

[q95z]

??(Epic..  how to flare (breakdance

[pwningtoenail]

did my first palm spin on a boulder today! all thanks to you! :D

[WellyPheonix]

epic i dont have place to train not even a kerb

[TheCodyHannah]

is this move really practical? cuz it seems like your just spinning for a flashy effect.

[TehBuddaChris]

lolz you can do a palm spin on a migit

[Meauple]

OMG your KOs are destroyed... lol

[zenganfun]

Thx!!!

[Javierm0324]

Is this a good way to work up for a wall spin?

[Epic1]

@Javierm0324 of course!

[zengod861]

@Javierm0324

you either throw your self and then randomly end up doing it

or you take it step by self and give your self full understanding of what should be happening then eventually take off steps and you'll get it

[nimsxmx]

After reaching a level of control with this move, it's sooooo fun and easy:)

[TheNatedog0928]

Hey epic, do you do ATA taekwondo?

[djcross1]

Love your tutorials Epic!

[xomanowar42]

that edit at 0:08 is funny as hell

[KidFeJo]

i can do wall spin and palm spin. :P

[TheJamel1978]

I've seen you're videos, well most of them anyway. Dude, you are like a ninja. Awesome!!!

[owhsht310]

I swear, after completing P90X, Epic's tutorials are next.

[jeff5kyb]

this look easy and difficult at the same time

[Asyrafz96]

yeahh..i can do it, thanks bro..

[HeavenSkunk]

is my shoulder suppose to hurt after a few hours of doing this? or am i doing it wrongly?

[Epic1]

@HeavenSkunk yeah if ur shoulders are hurting u could be doing something wrong, it should be comfortable and easy. Check ur hand positions as well as mine and others in other videos. Make sure ur not just placing ur hands and letting ur shoulders rise higher than ur neck, u wanna push against the wall or ledge or rail etc.

Think of it this way. If your shoulders are hurting, it's prob. cuz you're not using them. =P

[HeavenSkunk]

@Epic1 woah u are right! my shoulder is really higher than my neck when i do it, i'll correct it straightaway, thanks! Stay positive!

[Epic1]

@HeavenSkunk hahah =)) I should be a doctor. haahhaha

[UnipsychleProduction]

"I'm Epic..."

Got that right.

[daniboyyo]

You can even train this on your bed!

[Epic1]

@daniboyyo a million thumbs up for you!!

[iShaneGFX]

@Epic1 he was just saying (@daniboyyo)

[AncasterParkour]

[TheMrbubl3s]

Fun fact, the audio from 0:08 and 0:09 was replaced.

[Lokaofael1]

Parabéns seus Tutoriais são os melhores,o Brasil Agradece !

[regoledenapoli]

Ive been waiting for this tutorial, thanks epic =D

[baumstamm228]

@Epic1

Oh nice thx !

Helped a lot !

[rikkieatspie]

haha. his butt is wet

[redtrunkun]

thanks like always xd

[mookun615]

I really like all your fluid movements, but you used to punch like crazy didn't you? Isn't that why your knees went bad? I saw the change in your tutorials. It's really cool the way you didn't just quit because it was bad for your knees, but instead, just changed the way you did everything so it's not as bad on your knees. I've been punching it on all my tricks but I'm working on flowing now. I'll be honest, you were a huge influence in that. So thank you for potentially saving my knees ^^

[Epic1]

@mookun615 Yes punching destroyed my knees. Glad to have done so for you. =))

[DesperateAmateursone]

Well explained.

[TheNarutosage12]

at 1:19 his pants r wet

[lanzzboy]

@TheNarutosage12 Sweat that's all

[ModernWarFails2]

Thank you so much epic, you helped me with all my parkour moves. Still looking forward to learning more from you man.

[ninjaman381]

lolz epic ur KOs r soo torn up XD

[Denziel12]

His ass is sweaty... nice

[OfficialAlbert]

thanks :) love you man.. nice style.. your videos NEVER DIE!!!

[07Parkour07]

I NEED HELP ! how in the world some free runners get monster air when they do a front flip or a side flip ?!

[reliantflame]

@07Parkour07 blocking

[07Parkour07]

@reliantflame I know about that, but I don't know how to apply it right. In fact when I try to block I get less height and I need an advice from somebody who can really block and get monster air.

[Wiljami10]

This is like perfect tutorial! Keep it up!

[paintballz4ever]

this is a pretty easy trick if you know what a cartwheel feels like :P it's fun to do in random locations haha



[Mrepiclykindofawesom]

Epic!!!!!!!

I haven't seen you, or basically in any other video do a wallrun...

Can you do one?? or a tutorial.... because you explain things so well...

Iam asking for the wallrun going sideways not upwards.....

[tematchi]

@Mrepiclykindofawesom technically it's called a tic-tac...just saying

[Epic1]

@Mrepiclykindofawesom I have a tutorial on a wall run.... but going sideways is just silly... how could such thing require a tutorial??

[darkrdemon499]

omg im soo gonna try this on a pathway corner (5:32)

[RaidenGuy]

1:20 look at his ass, haha :)

[Mutantgamer]

friggin cool!

[baumstamm228]

Would be nice if you could explain how to do this move on a rail ! :)

Nice tutorial btw. !

[Arkandji]

@baumstamm228 He did in one of his older videos

[Epic1]

@baumstamm228 check my rail flow combo video... it's one of my recent ones, but it breaks it down for u.

[paulowns4ll]

You live in the most beautiful place man. Everywhere your at when you make video's its just green. Its awesome

[MrGuywhodoesnothing]

Epic, Remi, Monty Python, and Looney Tunes: the four best things that came into existence

[MrGuywhodoesnothing]

[Epic1]

@MrGuywhodoesnothing I tell u in the video... listen for it. =D

[joealtair3000]

[avenegedslaterfold]

Yea dude! How is your leg doing!? Hope your recovering well :) Stay positive.

[Epic1]

@avenegedslaterfold It's fine, still recovering. Once I get healed I'll start filming again.

[avenegedslaterfold]

@Epic1 Good stuff man. Best of luck with the recovery :)

[ItsAllJustMovement]

Hey man u should come to the colorado national jam in August! You'd love to train in Denver. Have u ever...???!!!

[Epic1]

@ItsAllJustMovement I wish I could but no I've never been there before. Maybe one day soon, after my injury heels.

[Anthoz97]

[Epic1]

@Anthoz97 CANON 60D

[someone0d]

Thank you very much! ^^

[07Parkour07]

I can do a cheat gainer but i can't palm spin or wall spin...

[TheBrainialDrive]

@07Parkour07 I wish I was you :p (I cannot do a wallspin, not that I have ever tried, but i can do one on a pole ^^)

[ombleo]

I'm unable to get out and train at the moment as its raining a lot and i don't trust myself in the wet just yet (ill get there) also i''m very busy for a while. So what sort of excersises would you advise for a beginner to get their body ready for free running?

[Epic1]

@ombleo YOGA

[TiMickQC]

you explain very well

[K4th0s]

Epic. I have one thin for you. Haw long you are lerning parkur? Sorry for lamie my english.

[pwningtoenail]

how is your leg? has it healed?

[Epic1]

@pwningtoenail i'm still int he healing process... this was recorded before my injury

[pwningtoenail]

@Epic1 i hope you get better soon :D

[WOWman1797]

i really want to become more involved in freerunning but i never have anyone to do it with and i just cant do it by myself because it gets boring alone...how can i try to get my friends more interested in freerunning and actually want to try some of this stuf?

[Epic1]

@WOWman1797 Show them some videos... not the big crazy insane ones, but the chill good times friends just out having fun and doing cool stuff kinda videos.

[misco55]

Kool

[TheMegafool5]

didnt u just get stiches

[Epic1]

@TheMegafool5 this is before the accident.

[jjayzz05]

swaasss

[SteveOTheMan16]

i was just practicing them today thinking "hmm maybe epic has a tutorial" -searches for it finds nothing- damn. -checks back youtube now and sees this- winnnn. i can do them good i just wanted to see how you did them and now i can try different things like what you do and see what works best. oh the perfect timing of things

[superfile]

Perfect tutorial :)

[WestpalmFreerunner]

0:19 did you mean to say wall spin?

[Epic1]

@WestpalmFreerunner not a wall spin is on a flat wall. 

[elintinmagik]

@Epic1 no you said wall spin at 0:19

[Epic1]

@elintinmagik lolz I originally said wallspin yes but I dubbed it saying PALM SPIN... cuz there's a difference.

[akeith8gamer]

@Epic1 what is some conditioning or routines for a "wall spin"

[mastermindh]

I can already palm spin, but i tried the safetly vault palm spin because i thought it looked cool, my foot got caught and i nealy face planted :/

Great tutorial though :D

[SteveOTheMan16]

@mastermindh you should never do them if you are freerunning. safety type vaults or spins are for practicing.

[darkpyromon1872]

Nice tutorial! Btw does anybody watch this while taking a crap? I mean because that's where I get most of my ideas/imagination.

[Dalrod12]

Yes, I've been dying for this tutorial :D

[ekwyxrm8]

im one of the first guys here but i got nothing to ask you explain very good

[ManInTheMorphsuit]

I love the fact that I'm one of the first 100 viewers :P

[phantomhockeyzero]

i always like how you mention "its YOUR way and everyone should do it their way." since people always complain how its not the way to do it, acording to how they were taught

[Epic1]

@phantomhockeyzero That's exactly why because people get into arguements over such material bullshyt, YOU'RE NOT DOING IT RIGHT.... in parkour & freerunning, there is no such thing as a wrong movement, there is only what WORKS for the individual, and some ways work better for some than others. =) I'm sure you know this but I hope this gets countless thumbs up so more can read, and understand that SELF EXPRESSION through MOVEMENT is possible.

[phantomhockeyzero]

@Epic1  i feel so special getting a reply^ . but ya thats why its FREErunning and to express an on self, like you said

[BMDaneo]

I think he make this tutorial before the accidentt

[JackBullenskie]

You inspire me. all my freerunning videos on my page are dedicated to you!

[2411raf]

@ 0:08, his voice changed. lol~

[ontheBrightsiide]

@2411raf I think in the original he said "wall-spin" then went back while editing and voiced over "palm spin" lol

[phantomhockeyzero]

@ontheBrightsiide & @Epic1 ya because at 0:21 he says wallspin lol

[WiiFaceStudios]

new trick im going to train on, btw when are you and kris(ekko) gna meet and flip?

[OShacker252]

so ur back to training now?

[Epic1]

@OShacker252 This was before my injury.

[OShacker252]

@Epic1 oh hope u feel better epic cant wait to see what u do after u heal up my legs hurt to but i dont have a cut as bad as yours i just have to sit in my bed for awhile till i recover
