I am working on my gainer atm, I can do it but just from the eagle as soon as I am tryin to do it from master scoot / valdez I am kicking more to the side and I am doing the gainer/side hook kick. Next session I gotta commit to do it from gumbi, I ve been already trying it but th3re is some block in my head 😀✌
If you keep practicing from scoot and consciously try to swing straighter and straighter, you'll safely get more inverted. I could have put much better examples of inverted gainers in this video, but I did focus more on the kicking axis. If you don't invert as much, the hook kick can come out bigger. This video was mainly showing the steps to progress to whatever inversion level you're looking for 😀 I have yet to do gumbi gainer, but perhaps I shall join you on that journey 💪🏾
Yes indeed I was trying to kick straight but I think it mess me.up when I step.into.it at an angle then couple of.times I kicked into ground...now I am focusing not really on kicking straight but keeping my knees close together that helped me a lot. U had there nice inverted one that first one u ve did successfully. Just from.the j step setup Gumbi is great for inverted gainers .but my gumbi isnt the greatest, I am getting power out of it but not consistently so I gotta work on it
@@ZealousChuck ah I see, that makes sense to keep your knees together! For me, spotting my leg swinging through helps, otherwise I end up looking to the side over my shoulder which puts me more off axis. It's always a learning process, and while it was one of the first tricks I learned, I'm constantly learning more about it
@@trickwondo yes I ve heard that it is good to look at the swingin leg and it helps with inversion .I will try that as well. And I would also guess best way is just to have fun with it and try different things or try to combo it in and out in some fun way. It defo wasnt one of my first tricks I think the more.flexible u are the easier it is...and I am.not really that flexible..but I am making progress in that direction too 👍
@@ZealousChuck ah I see. Everyone starts somewhere! I just had a few years of Taekwondo experience before I started tricking. My hips were not flexible at all in the beginning. The gumbi requires a level of back strength and hip flexibility that I've only recently attained so it will be on my list of upcoming goals for sure. Progress is everything, as long as you count the little victories along the way, everything turns out okay
