Pike Video/Picture Guide

I don't know if anyone would need this.... but it might help some people.
Pikes are really easy. It is way easier if you've got L kicks down. Learn them first! Read my sticky guide.

( Left hand. if you wanna use your right hand, switch the lefts and rights )

1. First start off like an L kick. Step back with your left foot.

2. Put your left hand down and swing your right leg up.

Swinging leg up

3. Turn your hips and torso towards the sky. Turn it more than you would in a L kick.
(If you've got L kicks down, then this part would be easy)

Turning hips

This next step may be easy for some, but tricky for others. Steps 4 and 5 happen at the same time.

4. Your right foot is gonna kick down towards your head like an L kick

5. Bring your left foot next to your right foot. In other words, close your legs!

Putting legs into position

6. To hold it longer, just keep practicing. Like I said if you can already L kick, you’ll get pikes in no time!

Final product

This is a better picture of my pike:

Hope that helps.

i noticed in a couple of guides now, that it's always described to use the left arm to balance, spin on it etc... my right arm is stronger than my left and i can balance better on the right, so am i supposed to do like in the guides all things with my left arm down the ground or can i use my right as well??

	My pike guide My L kick guide Breakin' was something that society didn't know about, it was something too new for them to even understand, and because of their ignorance to it and lack of knowledge about it, they got scared, and the first thing they do when they get scared about something is to try and stop it...
