Can either of you hit double pickup?







What really helps with double pickup is working toe barrage. Toe whirls also help.. Because pickup dexes are like whirls. Start the first dex like a half whirl and just go right into the 2nd

My advice: Dex it twice, in/out, then delay it on that same toe.

Thx Henry, one question, are both dexes whirl like? I've been trying this with first dex whirl like (peaktime) then second dex atw like (downtime), in any case I'll school toe barrage more.

I think learning double around the world is really important. I don't think you necessarily need to know how to toe barrage, but that would make double pickup really easy. I think the most important thing is getting your set foot down really fast, dexing the bag at the apex for the first one, and setting the bag to about your knee. I think I might lean back sometime too, but that is proabbly just bad form.

Ive hit double pickup a couple of times, my advice would be if youre setting it from a clipper (which i assume you are) plant your clipper foot fast and raise your dexing knee high. first dex is sorta whirl like but second is definitely just like a normal pickup.

w00t :lol:
seriously though, I've tried letting the bag drop through to clipper and toe whirr is totally doable and fun.

I hit it like a whirling pickup with the whirl done mid time.

After hitting this trick I think it is important to think of the first dex semi-whirl like and dex high and tight. Thinking of the trick like a clipper set double pickup was problematic, but if it works for you then go for it.
