Advanced.Rope.Dart Tech 2: Cross Bodywrap + Release

Entrance:
Begins just like the Rolling dragon, but opposite.
*Instead of launching it from under your right to over your left; You must either -launch it over the left shoulder and threw under the right arm or stretch out your arms behind you and adjust the rope to that position.

Wrap:
*grasp the wrapped rope and horizontally swing your dart around your waist from right to left (you can pivot/turn your body around to help the motion carry itself)
*grasp the rope again and start swinging it vertically (overhand swing) behind your back and then in front of you so that the dart now carries itself from your grasped loops to under your left arm to over your right shoulder

*CATCH THE DART - if you dont it will hit you, so after you've launched it over your right shoulder make sure you are looking above your right to see it coming.

Should look like you are tangled in the front holding about 2 wraps in your tether hand(left) and holding the dart in your free hand(right)
X
_ It should look like this (somewhat) on your back; an X on top of an Underscore

In this form you can do jumps rolls flips what have you and have your dart securly on you ready to release

Release:

*there are 2 possibilities of release
1. As you are holding the dart and looking forward you would forcefully throw the dart forward and simultaneously let go of the wraps and pivot your body 360 and it should shoot out where you threw it.
2. As you are holding the dart looking forward , forcefully throw the dart and simultaneously let go of the wraps and raise your tethered hand above and behind your head and it would shoot out with out having you turn around.

note: if you were to simply throw it it would get caught behind your neck

thats sum pretty cool stuff the music n all ... you know you can edit your fuk ups rite?

[RollingFireDragon]

@TheKobragrey thx and Yea i could edit them out.

but i think id rather them be in there

[sawadr]

vey nice. i uderstand the basics of it. but on the rolling dragon. how do you get it to fly so far after spinning it over your body? is it the fabrick of the rope you are using that makes it fly?

[RollingFireDragon]

@sawadr (dog leash tape a bit more liquid.

Its all about exageration: dart from your right grip, over left shoulder, under right armpit, and out forward. Trick is to have your obdy mass move with the darts. ie as its being swung above my head behind me. taking a step or motion back and as its swinging under my arm from upper back take a step forward; not for its motion but to seperate me from the ropes surface area which would otherwise catch friction halting the ropes length

Nice one bro thanks for posting you gave me some ideas as i just started with the rope dart and it's going well, your vids help stretch my boundries :)

[Taud]

i dont much understand the strange corkscrew move at 0:08 but the rest looks solid man

[LKH9]

Expert... I can never understand the mechanics of the movements.

[MrPjslide]

i like the fact that uve made a move that makes it so u can do a kick incase someone is very close

[sawadr]
