Double Hopover???

professor · Post by **professor** » 02 May 2005 13:17

Ok so I don't know if you want to consider this a trick or not, but it's pretty hard to do. I've hit, many times, a ...

Double hopover
or
Symp. paradon from inside stall without the bag leaving the inside stall, just moving to clipper
or
inside > (jump)/op out[dex] > same out[dex] > same clip

I don't know if you want to consider the dexes, dexes. The reason is because I don't go around the bag , it just rests on my foot the whole time. It's kinda the same idea as when I do a symp. clipper? I dex the bag but it is still on my foot.

Has anyone hit this? Do you think it is a valid trick? Please give me your thoughts on the matter.

Hey that's awesome!! I don't know if you can count the dexes - but it still wins major points for style in my opinion and sounds pretty damn hard!!

Nice work!

I still can't figure it out how the dexes go there.

Stupid me. Do you have it on video?

This is how I think of the move. Imagine a hop over, but the leg going over the foot with the bag on it moves in a double circle while going over. You could think of it like a hop over with a flourish.

In technical terms there are no dexes - since they would have to be "the" I presume - but it still sounds like a classy move.

Yeah, that does sound pretty sweet... props (and we want a video sometime

)

I will clarify, since Ben isnt on the boards much. Jeremy pretty much sums it up though. But i will continue to be redundant.

The Bag is on his left foot. He hops with his right leg, OVER the left foot, which stays in the air. While he is hopping over, his right leg does two dexes, like a double over down, OVER the bag, not around it. And he lands with the bag on a left footed clipper, which never touched the ground.

It takes strength.

You both got it exactly, much better at explaining it than me thanks. I will get it on video whenever we get someone to bring a camera to one of our sessions.

Wow, that really sounds quite hard! Thanks, I got it now.

It'd be really sweet if you could do the first "dex" horisontaly, circling your own foot... Uh nam nam!
But nice all over!

I think the dexes are a bit cleaner than imagined, but still the non the less. He kind of goes around his toes though.

Anyway, I call it a Hopadon, because it is a hopover paradon, and although Ben has said the word once or twice, I don't think he is stoked on the name yet. If you agree with me that it would be a really cool name, post.

And, if he did this trial style down a stap or two, it could be a Hopadown,

.

Anyway, I think they're cool names

Not as cool as watching him bust it though. Peace,

Bum

Well, Hopadon makes SENSE, I suppose. It just reminds me of italian pizza (I guess cause it sounds like Papa John's slurred). Mama Mia! That's a spicy hopadon!

Oh cool! It's like spam for your forum!

Guess that's why we have mods... they take a bite out of spam.
