Symple Motion Rake

Post by peterh »

So I've been trying this trick forever now, and it just doesn't click with me. I can do motion from clipper and toe, and my rake abilities are on par. I just recently learned symple motion, and I feel like I should be able to hit this. I hit motion rake about 9 months ago. Please help.

!?!?
i've been trying symple DYNO ss rake.. like a rev. whirling set behind you like a dyno with a small toe tap even, not muted, and have been getting closer... the x-bodiness of the trick is natrually gonna be iffy too, but i can see a refraction like double dyno ending in a toe stall more than a rake...
sounds tooo crazy.

Good luck on hitting those tricks....I'm sure they are very difficult, but the definition of Motion = ending on clipper, and the deffinition of dyno is also ending on clipper. Something tells me that "motion rake" is a funky reaper to pulled around toe stall (or possibly a barfly rake), and dyno rake is a legover caught behind you and raked forwards. In both cases, props on the originality, but those trick names are literally impossible.

Well, I do a motion, and then I rake it. So I double dex it, do a full hip turn to do the osis, and then turn back to do the rake on the same foot I set the bag from. Sometimes I even do the osis, and the bag rolls conveniently from clipper to toe for the rake.

yeah its like a legover or maybe even more like a swirling rake, but i hit rev swirling rakes and the move is different... try it from a zooming dyno or gyro dyno, that might help to do the dex at a timely manner to rake it.
I will try to get it on film!!!

Symple motion is a cool trick.

Symple motion rake sounds mental. I can't even do it without the bag. Actually for that matter, I struggle with non symple motion rake without a bag as well, although I think I get it.

my knee is sore so no film, but i have a clip of what it would like with a dyno rake where you can easily visualize it i think... just imagine i tilt my toe a little more for the rake...

Doesn't really help. I know what dyno looks like.

I have hit motion rake and dyno. But not symple.... Torque rake is fun too. Whirling Swirling rake has been a Bitch to hit.... not yet though.


The closest thing to the feel of that trick that I have hit is Pixie same Dada Rake.

As you sail over the bag with both feet in the air the body twists into the x-body rake before your support leg makes contact with the ground. I respect the term "iffy" as described earlier in this thread. You really have to be clean and well defined when turning osis tricks into x-body rakes.

I don't have any real advice for symple style motion. Seems like a lot of extra effort. Video would be sweet!!!
Go out and shred already.
