Matt that was awesome!

I found it super informative and helpful (although we'll see how much it helps when I shred tomorrow ;)

Super props, I for one would love to see more.

again, i find it hard to draw much from that, since my clippers arent flat enough to stall in the "swirl sweet spot".

i am however getting a few swirls from the advice in that video lately. lifting with my support leg helped me alot, and trying it a bit further behind me, just a tad so they are still flat, so thanks! but like i said, i have to use my actual normal clipper sweet spot when i do them.

Try working on flattening it out a little. It sounds stupid but sometimes I forget to even try on the delay of the clip and focus completely on the move out of it. Basically, make sure to cover all the angles when learning a new move.

Nice video Matt. It makes me want to shred, but I won't. :wink:

If you can't see the difference from these videos then that means that you probably aren't at the level to be ready to try them yet. Practice the basics and these tricks will make more sense to you.

this issue brought me to the idea of hitting swirl, after a couple of tries I managed to hit it (I'm afraid whirl is gonna take somewhat longer)
so don't feel bad about creating this thread, you inspired a person to hit a trick ;)
