the tee shouldn't matter. I. leave the ball on my 1 inch tee ball set upright to forward. it just taks time ro get down. dont forget the physics for the ball, mass of your foot x speed will give you the acceleration and therefore better height. I put enough force in the kick for a 50 yard fg. if you can upload a vid I can look at your technique.

can you tell me how to do that??

@mavsnumber23 It is hard to learn and takes time. As you can see in the video, first your plant foot must be infront of the ball by about a foot. The key is to hit the top 1/4 of the ball and have your foot striking down at the ball. The goal is to compress the ball against the ground to have it pop up. Be patient, it could take weeks to months to get down good. Let me know how it goes and if you need additional pointers.

This is probably the best and smoothiest onside kick i've ever seen (well without pressure)

that is an EXCELLENT pop-up kick. Great job man! If you want to see 2 very awesome onside kicks take a look on our youtube page. Coach Brent and Jesse Sandoval blast 4 onside kicks in a row that stay in the air foreverrrrr! @kickingworld

@jwclark12 mine does the same bounce, just not near as high.. is it the tee? do i need a certain one, or if you use a normal orange one, how can i place it?
