How hard are Master/Air Swipes? (Referring to same move) - 10-06-2006, 05:56 AM

I am referring to swipes from a standing position where you take off the ground and are midair for a seocnd before hands touch the ground, followed by feet with no hands.

I know Master Swipes and Air Swipes is sometimes used interchangeably (The Bboy video sold here refers to them as Air Swipes).

How hard are these considered? The reason I am asking is because it only took me less then 45 minutes to do continous, clean, one-legged swipes. I started doing airswipes today (Or Masterswipes) and I managed to do a clean one after about 20 minutes of practice. (I haven't attempted continous yet due to lack of room)

I was reading Windmills are considered the easiest power move to learn and I have been avoiding attempting it but if I could pick up air/master swipes fairly fast should I have much of a problem with Windmills?

Edit: The video refers to Airswipes as a power move

This is also the move I mean '+'

windmills are much harder to learn, and windmill is not the easiest power move, trust me, it's a misconception....

Windmills are not easy and entirely different movements than airswipes, just practice and practice.

Here we go again.. Airswipes are airflares/airtracks/airwhateverothername. Master swipes are the big swipes.
Windmills are definately not the easiest, BUT not every move is a powermove.
The windmill is the foundation move of power.

Yes I am aware of that but why do the BBOYs that sell the video on this website refer to them as airswipes and not master swipes?
