Strobe Light

Well, I have to say that watching someone shred in a strobe light is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. I say someone makes a video that involves this because it is awesome!!

EDIT: I know it would be extremely hard to do, but even seeing simple sets and kicks it looks amazing.

Yea it seems to be very good to practice both sides as i have been "hacking" for a couple of years now. Is a mirage/illusion pretty much like the pickup/legover except the setting foot is the opposite foot is the one that ends the trick?

Yea, after throughly scourging this site for information about how to do a proper clipper, nothing came up :D. But I actually have learned alot about some of the easier tricks.

Some questions about the basics

What are some basic/easy tricks I could learn to start myself off with? I've been circle-kicking for a few years now and freestyling seems so cool. So a few days ago I ordered a few mr. sandbags and decided to start. :D
