Hi. I’m Urin Artem from Underways team. Today I talk and show how you can right,
fast and easy learn sideflip.
Many people think that it’s right way to attempt sideflip straight off . But it’s
wrong, don’t forget using body a whole, but you should clearly understand all the
motions. It’s difficult for mind try to learn all phases at the same time: the impulse,
hands-wave, concentration, twisting and landing. If you try to think about all
phases, you’re able to get confused. The right way to make the approach exercises
aimed to accent on the each phases then to connect them consecutively .
Firstly, you should remember the flip is consisted of 3 phases:
1. Legs impulse 2. Fly and twisting phase
3. Landing
There are the simple approach exercises for understanding these phases. Now we
meet to them. Also there are simple rules for flips: keep
your body strength and try to be consecutive.
If even one part of body is relaxed, your body becomes unprepared for flips and
you can hurt yourself. You should have been keeping your body stress during
these exercises.
The first approach exercise
You should sit on the gym carpet and make the concentration. Don’t forget keep
your hands on the middle of shin. Try to compress yourself: round your back , pull
legs to the chest, press chin to your chest) and roll from one side to another
over the back without any zigzags.
1) Chin should be pressed to your chest 2) Rolling from shoulder to shoulder
without torso rotation 3) Knees touch the shoulders.
The purpose of this exercise to understand how to make the right
concentration and draw sideflip trajectory.
The often mistakes)
Weak concentration – if you have the weak concentration, you twisting slowly
and sub-twist sideflip even if you make it from high dais. The more you compress
provided your twisting is right, the simpler you feel right twist.
Keep arms on the knees (patella), not on the middle of the shin. You can’t
compress yourself as much as it possible. It’s very difficult to keep your body
concentrated.
The second approach exercise
Now we need the high pile or soft-cube of mates for make spin up. The pile of mates
or soft-cube should be a bit higher than waist-high in order to teach
You should come side to the middle of mates or soft-cube.
Your shoulders shouldn’t turn when you jump. Try to image you make sideflip in
the narrow pass, if you turn, you hit on the wall.
Your jump must direct up and a bit through forward at the same time.
After jump up, you should concentrate by pulling legs to the chest.
Then you roll side out of the mates and stand to the beginning position.
We don’t work arms during this exercise. It makes for legs work clearly
understanding – recognize the legs impulse and legs pulling to the
concentration.
(The often mistakes)
Begin on the edge of mates or stand not the side away cause turn the torso.
Landing occurs backside or changing direction. Remember shoulders position
gives you direction.
Lack or weak concentration. May be you half-worked concentration or not to pull
legs to the chest in time. Try to stress our attention on this motion.
Begins torso bend. If you bend your torso, you draw motion down. In the right
way, firstly jump up, then jump forward. Remember move up has the priority.
Weak legs impulse. You don’t straighten in full, decreasing your height. Try to
work your legs impulse completely – use your legs and foot up for maximum
height.
height.
height.
Third approach exercise)
Third approach exercise)
Now we add hands-work, it makes sideflip a bit higher and excellent twisting.
Main\Right hand work)
If you get habit to make from the right side, you right hand come up higher head
level bending a bit or opposed. You make cycle motion, catching our right leg for
concentration, getting legs impulse one-time.
(Secondary\Left hand work)
When we understood the right hand work, we proceed to understand the
secondary\left hand work. Secondary hand come up to higher than
the chest level. Your left hand make cycle-motion lengthwise body at the same
time legs impulse.
Now let’s add the hands-waves and try to jump from post on the soft-cube,
twisting-in as much as it possible.
The often mistakes)
Spreadless range of motion. The less motion range, the worse twisting.
Your hand comes down lengthwise body. It doesn’t get you twisting and create
difficulties getting concentration. Lack of one-time legs motion. If your
motions is one-time, your motions become maximum profitable.
Fourth approach exercise) (Swoop)
Devoid sense to make running sideflip without understanding of the previous
approach exercises. The speed can’t improve your technique.
It’s opposed may be you don’t recognize your mistakes.
The swoop turns the horizontal energy into vertical direction.
Firstly, you should make the step by one leg and jump side by this leg to both legs
on the tips. You should keep your body strength
avoiding the arching. Knees keep straight, tips stand forward torso and we should
immediately jump out backward.
The often mistakes
Jump on the full foot surface. You stop your motion. Full energy comes to the
floor. If you land on the tips, you should immediately jump out the tips.
Relaxed body and legs. If your body and legs are relaxed, jump energy puts out the
floor. Torso bending. If you move to backward,
forward or sideward, you break the hardness of your body-construction and
direct your body to the wrong way. Swoop forward. When you swoop, keep
your foot in front of the torso, it makes the impulse better.
Now let’s try to make it by the short running with hands-wave and fly on the
soft-cube or mates, in the perfect way, you fly over it without touching.
The sideflip from the static position is more difficult than sideflip by running. All
the mistakes appear exactly when you make sideflip from the static position. I
show you and talk about the most often mistakes.
The often mistakes
Fussiness. Try to make sideflip with fit speed or make it with pauses in the
problem points.
Long sideflip. Avoiding the over-bending shoulders and right impulse motion.
Weak concentration and hands-wave. Try to make powerful and fast hands-waves,
at the same time don’t remember to pull legs fast for concentration.
Fifth approach exercise
When you make it over the soft-cube or mates, slightly touch it at the end of
motion, you can attempt sideflip to the foam rubber pit or on the very soft mates.
Firstly, try to make it from the static position, then, try to make it by one-step.
Remember full body work. Each part of your body work as a whole.
The often mistakes
Shoulders tumble backward. You land on the heels and fall on the button.
Sub-twisting or hard landing. All the flips is very fast motion, you should prepare to
make it as faster as you make it over the soft-cube or mates. When you lands
avoiding the legs weak, it can hurt your knees.
You can learn sideflip on the trampoline on condition that you have the excellent
body control.
As your motion understanding has become clearly, try to make sideflip on
the harder mates, later you can use the gym carpet. Try to make sideflip by
running, by some-steps and from the static position. Your sideflip become
excellent, when it is easy for you make sideflip from the static position.
Don’t stop on this level. Try to jump sideflips up on the short heights for
strength impulse, concentration and twisting. But, do it only your technique is
perfect. Always define the goal helps you developing. Wake up your imagination.
