Arrgh! I can't get it to play!

Silly codec!

I was thinking about this move today wondering if it had been hit! How odd!

Tom it's a telepathy, or maybe I can read in your mind...

Sorry I can't help you with codec stuff...

try using quicktime

I don't know... I had reservations about this when I first saw it. There is not much "torquing" going on in the torque.

No offense to Rafal, but don't you have to spin to do a torque?

Laroche · Post by **Laroche** » 14 Feb 2005 15:00

I dont like it.. no spin at all. I wouldn't even judge this as clean, I think, in regards to the pulled osis

I thin you don't have to, if dexes are still there. And in my opinion everything's all right with this torque (I mean dexes). I don't want to fight with anybody, so please don't shout at me!

Stupid .mp4 files never work for me. Can anyone tell me how to get those to play in WMP?

Just use quicktime

In my opinion, it is legit. There is virtually no way to hit this move without pulling through an osis. And even if you do pull it through, so what? If you DIDN'T "pull through", it would end in gyro clipper instead of osis. Mad props!

Massive indeed! The torque looked very different, but to me it's a question
of style not cleanliness. Vasek may have hit this with more spin, since
he has really nice symp torques.

P(r)oland!

Yeah, go watch Dave Holton's osis.

Too late, I`ve already called Honza to come look at this thread...

Seriously though, I wasn`t able to watch this vid yet, but how pulled is the osis? Does it have more/less spin than my ps torque on Fo` Shizza?

And 1 more thing. If you are critiquing style on osi, then you just have to critique Vasek's. Many moves ending in osis, he ends in frigid osis, which IMO, is just as sloppy as pulling an osis through. He uses his ankle flex to minimize the spin involved in the osis. If you criticize a pulled through osis, then you have to criticize an osis that ends frigid.

Really? I've always thought osii ending frigid looked very awesome. And he really only does that when he zooms.

I completely agree with Stephen. Osii ending in frigid look wicked sweet!! About the blurry symp. torque, I thought it looked AMAZING!! I love it when shredders perform their torques the way Rafal did! In my opinion, it's very stylie and cool looking!!

Ken, it has less spin than you or Juan doing ps torque.

Check out Jim's blazing barfly on flipsider too.

I think this movie is perfectly fine. I think jim's blazing barfly is far more questionable but that should be another thread.
