[bboykorea43265]

hey guys i found i was havin a hard time doin l kicks and nikes, so i had a friend hold my legs in position after i got to the kickup, that was i began to feel comfortable with myself in that position...

If you grab a chair or get a friend to hold out their arm so you can hold it with your free hand (in your case - you're left hand) and then you just practise your L Kicks. When you are comfortable with that practise without a chair or friend.

i have troubles with my nikes and l kicks.

i usually start as though im doing a cartwheel and then try and kick my legs towards my head, cept my hips are facing the wrong way, and my legs ar still moving like they would if i was doin the cartwheel.. they end up going over my head and thats when i fall ova

any tips?

[happydudeXI]

Not to stop u guys, but to warn u with learning the l kick, i mastered it, im in martial arts so im flexible, but once i kicked to hard, so my hand slipped away to my side, wich dislocated my shoulder, only to spare u guys the pain

[bLuRiL]

i had quite the same accident...but it happened to my legs~
we noobs have probs... pls help me~ flex problem...

Practise with a chair for support!

So if you do over kick then you won't fall so hard and you can probably even use the chair to balance yourself out again.

ok,the best way to do an l-kick for right hand(by urself).right leg back,step right leg forward,and l straight away.u gain the most momentum.

I don't think they are having problems gaining momentum if they are over kicking and hurting themselves.

I've been to both breakin' and capoeira classes and both times I have been taught to learn them using support.

[ultraman__26]

ok.tt means u stand with ur right leg back wards.take a step forward with ur right leg,and when ur right leg hits the ground,urleft legs comes off and u L straight away.gives lotsa momentum,my senior told me and i did it ezily.

L-kicks are by far my favorite move so I'll help u out

if u are a beginner and u cant turn your whole body around then u can start by switching you hands and turning your body, when u get dat down u can go one one hand and split both your legs to make a L

kinda hard to explain buh i tried

[OggyNoSh]

first u have to got down the handstand then try to do it lifting 1 hand..
