Fucking Zobln, not only did you edit what I did and take all credit for it, you said I made the mistakes you made. Could have just said that you edited what I did. As I say in the replay: 'Gotcha, bith.'
I'll leave you with some actual advice on TD raizes and some CnC so it's not a shotpist
Make sure you can land on your foot even without the arm, this helps you with landing. The arm is purely for momentum and balance's sake. Landing in a good position is the biggest part of the TD raiz though, without it, it's a near useless transition.
[L] Lame:The tricking replay was pretty smooth and fluid, I liked it.
I do kind of want to break down all the tricks and things you did in it.
Opener was kind of generic but okay, the sailor moon that came from it honestly felt wasted, you could have done something way nicer than just some awkward swipe.
The TD Raiz was alright, way better than the average tricker, but it had some pretty big issues that often get looked over.
Your non-ground touching arm was really awkward and dodgy, to be honest they always do but contracting the elbow and raising the shoulder isn't the way to go. You produced the spin after touching the ground with an extended pec and odd chest, just to rotate them so you could easily balance, this is the way to get the most momentum, but frankly, it looks bad. Try rotating in mid air so you land straight and can just bring the arm down, it looks smoother and leaves you in an easier position. (+ if you do it in MP it's way safer for your balance since it's easier to over see)
Landing with extended abs is also a bit nasty for doing corks, but isn't a problem.
The corkscrew was really bad :c
The setup itself wasn't terrible, up to the point where you were in the air it looked really nice, but you massively screwed up your knees in the cork.
You (nearly) completely contracted your non lifting leg, which can be okay, but then you extended it, still acceptable, but the real shocker was that you contracted it AGAIN. Your other knee just had a minor flaw, you went up with a held knee and extended it mid air but that is not an issue at all.
The tuck with your arms was actually quite nice.
Over all I'd give the replay a solid 7/10.
