"Bent knee clipper"-ish stall

Post by Prenz »

So in one motion you...

Catch the bag in an inside stall
Lower your foot to the ground
Place it on the ground
Bend at the knee of the support leg until ur ass is nearly on the ground

Sit for a sec, then lift ur body and stall foot off the ground, bringing the bag back into play.

Looks very much like a "bent knee clipper" except ur on the ground.

Anyone ever tried it? Pretty easy but weird.

When I hear knee clipper, I think of a crossbody knee delay. What I get from you is a sort of sitting down inside delay. Am I correctly describing your move? Kinda like your taking a crap or something? :wink:

hey,

when u are going down, ur hips kinda turn naturally so that ur support knee is actually crossing the stall leg. It looks like a knee clipper sitting on the ground.

A bent knee flying clipper is like a flying clipper except your knee is bent and the kicking foot is tucked under the shin - so technically not behind the support leg.

A bent knee clipper stall sounds cool - but only really if you could do it stalling straight into that position - maybe like a Jorden the warden esquire flying toe stall? - Otherwise I don't think it's possible to get enough angle on your knee for it to be a clipper stall instead of an inside - unless you do it your way that seems to a little slow and not something you could link with other moves without pausing.

Nice innovation though.

Good idea!
I'll agree with Jeremy though, it will become a stationary move - otherwise you should do it in a not-as-clean kinda way - then I think you'd be able to work it in to the rythm of a string.

Ps. Habitat (edit!), I was over number 50 million to visit your page!

Alright, looks like this is kinda new so I guess i should call it something.

BEND OVER

(cuz u place it down like a walk-over, and ur support knee crosses ur stall leg like a bend knee clipper)

Not that its gonna be a new revolution or anything, but it really is a well-defined stall position that looks cool so it works. I'd suggest using it like Vasek uses lap catches to take a break during runs.
