i wouldn't say swipes take alot of strength you just need to practice. to get higher elevation, common sence, kick off harder and more upward. do you have a clip so we can see wut youre doin wrong? hope that helped pz

I used to know how to do 1 legged swipes pretty good, but then I hadn't done it in awhile and I forgot how!! Anyways I blame myself for not keeping up to date on my moves. At least it's not the worst thing that hadn't happen to me, my friend over time forgot how to do windmills because he said he got it down and he doesn't need to practice on 'em.....BIG mistake... I still mock him by doing mills everytime I see him. It always cracks me up
