Moonkick Tutorial

[jasperbreak]

really helpful!

[MrTheJokertck]

it's moon kick easier than backflip?

[GAMERGUY11111]

D: im weird, im right handed but i go left, i cant do it right :[ is this a problem?

[YHOUKOcapoeira]

I got a big problem man :/ Im left handed but I keep going to the left as well. I dont know how to step to the right. Any sugesstions?

// Yhouko

[jumpupdnbdj]

Very cool. Some typos/spelling mistakes, but a cool vid. Going to have to get down the beach and carry on with training. Keep the vids coming. Nice!!!

[j4ckyb01]

your should write right footed instead of right handed it doesn't matter what handed you are it's your feet you need to kick your foot up! i'm right handed and left footed so i do this the other way!

[Unknown4m]

omg ima get it confuse with my gainer

[SpeedDemon2468]

I can do it now

Different technique to urs

I learnt off that dude who has can't touch this for his music

[SpeedDemon2468]

Everytime I try this I sorta land facing the opposite way I take off and I land on my ass

[Scr3wGravity0wnz]

hey i have a question about the moonkick and backflip please check out my video, question is in description

[WoWgnome123]

there are like NO gyms around where I live and my dad in iraq so he can't spot me >.> wtf do I do

[H3n3Z]

@WoWgnome123

just try, i did the same

[Enthusiadam]

@WoWgnome123

find a friend

[lolpancake12345]

do it on the grass xD

like me :)

[lolpancake12345]

very nice :), although i can almost double corkscrew and i still can't do this :@:@:@

i hate and love this flip at the same time.

[theMcnegro456]

@lolpancake12345 i used to double cork on acedent but then i learned how to control it

if you learn this move it will open up so many doors to other trickss

[lolpancake12345]

i can do it, just not well :(.

and my corks are good xD

[theMcnegro456]

@lolpancake12345 really i hope u can get better at this move

my kick the moon is way way better than my corks but

im working on my corks

[lolpancake12345]

yeah, it's alright, i got it down pat today at school :)

[twistingproductions]

you can use it in a combo, you flash on to your opposite leg then kick up with your kicking leg

[iceywolf1]

is it safe to do this on ur own and how fit to u need to be

[lolpancake12345]

it's not really safe, but nothing is safe when it comes to this sort of stuff, if you want to try it by yourself please use a matress or sand, good luck :)

[SpaniolulSpaniolul]

please watch my video of kick the moon and tell me what's wrong !!!!

[DnTTrix08]

how did you get over the fear when ever i am running in this move i get scared i can pivot gainer but not j-step how did you get over the fear?

[lolpancake12345]

getting over the fear is the hardest part to any flip, best way to do it is just to go for it :)

[bboyhusky10]

I got this shit in one day, backtuck is scarier than this.. lol

[69boyZLeo]

@bboyhusky10 agree lol

[ItsMeTx]

watch?v=HxrotDciSRc

here's mine

[vintageuser]

i prefer the j step out o all of these * cus i can do it with a j step lol*

[Cicerox]

Wow I wrote that two months ago. What a lazy ass I am ahahah. I better get off my ass.

[Cicerox]

I should really redo this tutorial. It's kind of outdated.

[UnNormalMan]

No, you ARE tripping. Although it's still probably the music...

[plexfam]

ok not if i'm not tripping thats the music fromm ff7(final fantasy 7) the boss battle

[RsToaster]

ok , i can nail them out effortlessly on a trampoline, but before I try it on the grass, should i learn a backflip first?

[SharinganxUser]

Body can stay horizontal, or has to be inverted? =/

[baanty]

also your remarks about the j step arent correct, you state thast you cant make a u turn, but thats just a way to do it. I know some great trickers who do it WITH the u turn, i dont like it myself tho, but your gainer will me more like backflip in stead of cheat gainer, like yours is now, you should try it!

[baanty]

lol dude, your talking about swingtru moonkick, but you land on your kicking leg, so thats never gonna be a swingtru, you gotta be able to do a moonkick switch if you want to swingtru it....

[Cicerox]

This is kind of outdated. I'll probably redo it in the next 2 weeks.

[SDKJoker]

do you have 2 know how to do a backflip 2 do this?

[ichiruxichigo]

that would probably help

[xubermanx]

thanks! I got this in a few minutes (...I think?)

[bmackinnon2]

nice tutorial, i have been trying these for a while but i keep landing on my hands and knees, i am also trying them on the beach, which could be the reason cuz it absorbs a lot of the momentum...

[Elitemus]

hahahah :D If you injure yourself or die while doing this, I ain't responsible.

How to do a Moonkick.

If you injure yourself or die while doing this, I ain't responsible.

[Sakyamuni77]

Well, a moonkick is really hard and if u land on the floor in a bad way, it hurts really bad, some people already died after doing it on hard floors before they could do it properly...

[Undftdsoul]

when you place your jumping foot infront of you before you start.

[xmmxsheba]

what is "blocking" u said if u dont get enough hieght ur not blocking what is that exactly?

[Critica]

blocking is coming in at a certain angle where your base leg (the leg you push off of) hits the ground in front of you like at a 45 degree angle or something, notice how his base leg is in front of him before he jumps,

by doing so he channeled all of his forward momentum into upwards momentum

[mysackk]

actually i found it alot easier to do than a backflip.

[jeetkunedo117]

yup, i already have these. Learned them in a week truthfully. i think its a lot easier to do than backflip, and whats better is when you get them perfect, you can now Gainer easier.

[XninjaforlifeX]

when they say spot the landing you don't really have too... i learn gainer and my feet just lands it self i never really spotted the landing

[TheGardenTrickers]

thanks this helped ALOT.

[dragon394]

anyone know what the song is?

[LayzeeNpRoUd]

Uhmm...the song seems like a guitar cover of a song called 'Birth of a God' from the game Final Fantasy 7.

Awesome vid btw. Helps alot on all those little technical things.

[6cHaD9]

when you said, "When you hear Moonkick you often hear 'SEXY'..." at 0:10, do you mean DO instead of HEAR so it would go like this, When you do a moonkick....so on so on, right?

[Jinzune]

Looks kinda like a cheat gainer ...

[Lokoboy95]

well i have a freestyle battle on saturday, do yuh think if i practice realy hard i can get it for saturday if i practice the whole day?

also, im having trouble getting my leg to the flip position. Any pointers?

[tubeheresy]

Fucking cool

[zXBrainsXz]

Hey dude, could you tell me if learning on grass for the first time would be a good idea?(Btw I'm 12)

[pissedgoat]

nope, and your age isnt relevant =P

[AMkoreann]

uhhh where should you practice this for 1 time?

[pissedgoat]

well, a gym is ideal but not all people are fortunate enough to have one near by. next up from there is the softest surface around. if you dont have any particularly soft surfaces then yup its grass =/

[ICEBERG6721]

wat are you talking about? you can use a j step moonkick in a combo?

[TricksterJack01]

not out of something else

[ICEBERG6721]

yes u can. u could do a btwist s/t moonkick

[mchitti]

then it would a s/t moonkick, not from a jstep.

[ICEBERG6721]

u could j step moonkick and land and go into a scoot to cork

[c4nd4c3tkd]

i can never trust myself jumping in the air and flipping back! im afraid too thats what sucks

[TricksterJack01]

ur gay

[nguyendb2004]

so thats what i did at the movies...stupid thing 2 try on concret for the first time but i got it :D

[fallofshadows]

So the trick was easy enough that you landed it your first try? I'm sortof scared to try it...

[nguyendb2004]

if u have backflips u have the feel for it. just get the momentum. maybe its just me cause i had the feel for it that day along wid areals, x-outs, front flips, gainers, crucifix, cork screw and butterfly twist

[Galescott]

really wanna learn one of these, i think i could do it as i can go backwards in somersaults abnd stuff. guess ill try it at the gym next time im there

[TricksterJack01]

jsut go try

[jmtracksta]

dats really good...bt ur not doin a moonkick..its a gainer aerial so its not really a type of backflip...bt u got it lookin very clean..

[cjdewky]

whats the song

[Maddaveman]

Okay, that "raiz-ish" thingie you did was definately not a raiz at all, in fact it looks exactly like the spinning setup. I'm sure your raizes are fine now though.

Good tutorial!

[remixbomfunk]

no offense but they're kinda GAY... i didnt write this it was my friend

[ctown325]

lol..."and it looks kinda gay"

[XKimimaroX]

Ahaha, didn't realize you did this tutorial. XD

[ojusomeaznboi]

great tutorial!

[cristopherrobin]

that luks just like a cheat gainer

[9m2man]

i like this it is good i thought it was called kick the moon

[Mag1x]

it´s not a moonkick it´s only a good gainerflash ... moonkick = cheatgainer + hook

[Kaszub1991]

Thats Right ;]

[JeromePineda]

tahts why he said, "these days no one pulls a hook kick at the end.."

[BboyTheoryz]

no watch his legs closely if it was only a good Gainer flash then they would rotate straight over his head....

[2Agent8]

@Mag1x

nope its isnt a moonkick, but it isnt a gainer flash either, a gainerflash flips completly back, he flips a lil bit to the side,

[surioara]

lol

[DerWeidner]

Yeah FF7 Music^^

[DamienZshadow]

I hate that I keep confusing this damn move for a reverse gainer because I do exactly what you tell me not to do (U-turn) I'll try and work on it next time. You gave good tips I don't often hear, thanks!

[surioara]

I c it the other way: it helps u lose some fear before doing backflips:P

[jaimeduendeozzzkr]

ooo fuck i have been practicing this and the first time i just got a huge scar in my arm but now i can land (with my back)

[Nhillis213]

Uhm Lmfao im white so Might as well cross this off my list of ways to break my neck

[SOSSOMSOS]

Nice vid....song name??

[hubachecka]

"

If you injure yourself or die while doing this, I ain't responsible."

LoOoL

[CoTrickster]

Good Tutorial BTW nice and in depth

[CoTrickster]

Sweet man. I aint gonna mention anything about the kick but i do believe i've seen more than a few good moon kicks out of you so...Sweet moon kicks man!

[TrickingGnome]

Good tutorial, but you're still not hooking at the end. There is no 'kick'.

[Cicerox]

By the time I made this tut, I realized that. However I felt the tutorials was nice in itself, and it could help in some way.

[TrickingGnome]

Ya you're right, I would still make a new one though so that you're not telling people a flash gainer is a moon kick. Cause originally thats what I thought when I was learning.

[Cicerox]

Well, I wouldn't consider it a gainer flash, cause it is slanted... I'll just leave it like this... This way if people wanna link it to someone, they can.

[shadowmuniplitive]

Good tutorial but If I die Im sueing you lol. :D

[greggers12]

niiice music!! FF7 4 LIFE =D

[Rhyno31rap]

Great Tutorial

[wiltshire1234]

why is everyone such utter nob jockeys

"wah, your an idiot man, its not a moon kick because your face isnt following the trailpath of your bumhole, your a cheat dude, i hate you"

hes just trying to help and who cares what its called

it still looks fucking ill

and i bet you 12 year old haters couldnt even pull off this "cheat gainer" in your dreams

i can nearly land these btw

kewl man

[Cicerox]

Thanks :)

[Harolduxas]

its not a moon kick... it's a cheat gainer...

[Cicerox]

Oh man...

[Taither]

Cheat gainer is a raiz, read comments before posting.

[thewayipray]

dude thanks soo much got it on my 4th try thanks for the help very much so appreciated

[PatrickAlessi]

If you don't hook it's not a moon kick idiot!

That's why it's called "A moonKICK"

[Havocdennis]

nice

[bigmanz999]

better watch sesshoumarus moonkick exampler...

[Cicerox]

Just as a disclaimer, I don't give a shit about gainer terminology. It's immature and stupid. Too many arguments spread out of it.

[pedroamedro]

scuse me is that like a aerial backwards with a swing through lol it looks like it lol

[YumaSakai]

thank you, ur tutorial is great i landed the trick at the third try ! I'm so happy! thank you!

[mangamachine]

I can do this trick now thanks to this tutorial thank you for uploading :) One question -

Is it easier to do the 3 step jog into the trick or is it better to do the 2 step spins into it?

[Cicerox]

Glad I could help man. And I experiment with both. Try both and find which suits you best man.

[messi19barca]

parkourste stfu what the fuck do you know about tricking parkour is fucking gay

[ParkourSte]

yur moonkicks suck!!!! wtf r those 2 spins about at the beginning???? you suck yur suppose make a tutorial if yur good at it!!!! lmao no1 watch this vid the guy sucks ass and my nan could do a better tutorial!!!

[Cicerox]

ahahaha, go fuck yourself.

[roflcopternoobskie]

May i see ur moon kick then plz?

[Cicerox]

Nope.

[Trilbymassive]

pussy mate just learn everything on grass and then u will have more respect 4 the trick.

[roflcopternoobskie]

umm have u ever dislocated ur fingers and fuked up ur ankle on grass?? ... its really depressing then cos u cant trick untill ur healed... and u suddenly have dis fear of the grass,, so beginners shudnt try dangerous stuff on grass.

[aher0o]

your ktm is lousy.... and when making a tut... be sure not to put to much text on 1 slide..

[Killwithhonor]

It was very easy after watching this tutorial, its a fairly easy move

[severmine]

ugh, a cheat flash gainer :P

I hate it when really good martial artists try and perfect these and not the real thing

a beginner move, but everyones starts as one

[XAytherxRedictusX]

Can you do this normally, on the street? Do you need one of those bouncy floors? o_o

[Cicerox]

Yeah, it's easy to do on the street. Most people just do tricks on grass anyway.

Anyway, coming up, btwist tutorial.

[XAytherxRedictusX]

I tried it...I have to admit, I jumped higher than I used to do. xD

[xXChocobo91Xx]

LOL FF7 Music nice:D I learned the moonkick a week ago it owns :P

[Aarieknol]

Wheres the kick?

[trickerflips]

[Cicerox]

All the tips i can give you are in the tutorial man... I can't help you anymore.

[broertjetim]

it's not a moonkick just a slant gainer flash...

i real moonkick is with a nice fast kick ;) don't tell people that it looks better without the kick, coz i doesn't!

[Cicerox]

I said "In my opinion". I didn't state a fact.

[Aarieknol]

where's the kick?

[Cicerox]

I think I covered that in the tutorial.

[123sayful]

[123sayful]

[786sayful786]

it was crap it was crap it was crap it was crap it was crap it was crap it was crap it was crap it was crap it was crap it was crap it was crap

[786sayful786]

it was rubbish

[Radicz0r]

Cool music !

It really gives that tutorial feel to it, please make some more tutorials, your karma will reach the stars..

Please !

[vladose]

i think it's not a moonkick it's a slant gainer !

[Cicerox]

Yeah It's a slant gainer, however, nowadays that's what is becoming known as the moonkick. I wanted it to reach a broader range of people.

[Heart2BreakCrew]

doesnt the moonkick higher than that?

[0tsukasa0]

that is an awesome looking kick, i wish i had a gym in my area

[mangamachine]

Nice tutorial, the only problem is I can't stick the landing i always seem to land on my knees, or in a low crouch - Any tips?

[Cicerox]

Keep your chest up and don't look back!

[Neazol]

nice tutorial, I'm going to try this one xD

[airchairairflare]

music theme bizzaro sephiroth from ff7 right?

[Cicerox]

Nah man, check the end of the vid.

[Sh4ft07]

drew its just the same lol :D

[thelotusninja]

awesome man thanks

ive been wanting to get this down

im gonna try it tonight when i go to the gym!

[SADEONER]

I just learnt moonkick and its a very nice but also very weird trick :P it doenst fit in any category :S Its a bit like Backflip but u dont flip really :S

[jkt5]

Yes I can do this now! the way i did it was doing bkicks from a gainer, anyway nice tut!

[mozzletough]

thanks thisll help seeing as i have a gayass moonkick with a bent leg and looking back prob atm

[Ajsaek]

Good tutorial, and u have right moonkicks are sexy!

[sasuke60]

can anybody do this

[biyak]

i wouldn't recommend learning this move and insted

learning Gainer flash

because it will be troublesome later and moon kicks compared to Gainer Flash they are crap

but nice tut ^^

[Cicerox]

1. Moonkicks are sexy

2. Moonkicks never interfered with my GFlash

3. You need Moonkicks if you wanna s/thru out of anything

4. Moonkicks are prerequisites for Corks

I'm pretty sure the list goes on.

[biyak]

well they interfered with mine

and GF are more sexy and swingtrhos with GF are more

sexy but it is only my opinion, not trying to offend you in any way :} i give you respect for creating this tut ^^

[SADEONER]

biyak just because u had problems with it doesnt mean we will get problem with it. :S

[biyak]

yes but you should worn people that it might make problems :}

[DrewPanda]

awesome, i believe i can do this move with ez because i do a cheat gainer with an added hook kick at the end. So, moonkick is close to a cheat gainer but it has more invert.

[royal111]

thanks for this
