ok i get the guide but at the last part,
it says to land on the right of where you started. how do you land on the right if you jumped to the left?

marco, for ccw swipes you would start with ur left foot down, and ur right foot straight out. you would swing ur left hand to ur right (overhead) so that to gain momentum, and then jump up onto ur right hand. remember in a swipe your spin direction is opposite to the direction your legs are spinning in (i.e. my ccw swipe has my legs spinning cw, while my body moves ccw).

i think this particular guide is for CW

this guides sorta messed.. if you ahve your left leg up then u should have your right hand up.. the guide shows left hand up and left leg up.. you should teach the newbs how to practice the movement.. you should start off like that but instead of trying to go straight into swiping.. put the foot thats up so that the heel is touchign the floor.. then pivot around it.. it helps you get the movement down.. once you think your ready, swing your arm hard and that should cause u to twist your body.. push off a bit with your legs and when your in the air you should try to twist your hips
