Hey man nice vid, ATWS look real good better than mine (i never do them anymore)

Your mirage looks great

If your looking for tips, i would work on slowing down your clipper. You want to really flatten your ankle and kind of move your whole body with it and it you will actually spot the delay and it will have a nice freeze frame feel to it that really allows you to control the set and helps you hit tricks like paradox mirage, stepping sets, and whirl. you will see what im saying when it happens. A good way to practice this is just learn to do a cross body stall i.e. a clipper with no set both sides

Your mirage looks good so you should try to hit a normal mirage out of clip, It feels a little different but its easy.

and keep working bsos especially clip and leg over.

Keep it up.

Hey dude, good video, glad to see you are progressing so well.

Not to be a jerk but you did 25 strong side clippers and ONE weakside clipper, I want to see them 50:50 by the next video!

If you are progressing this fast then you should have no trouble learning *the other side* quickly too!

Good work man.

It actually helps to mirror the tricks

For every 2 flipside side clips do one strong side clip.

It will help teach your other leg what its suposed to do

I been playing this sport really hard for a year and am also said to be a fast progressor and Clipper is a trick that takes so long to master.

You think your good at clipper and then you try and learn stepping and you realize your not.

You think your good at clipper then you try ducking and then you realize your still not done practicing it.

Same goes with osis, spins, whirls, paradox moves, swirl, and odviously butterfly. All these tricks will bring you back to the same thing, Shit i need to practice my clipper again. So get used to it i guess is my message.

That trick is never ending work, So practice both sides evenly and have patience with it. You will really see some results with clip if you just take your time and try to relax with it.
