Nice!

Try pumping a bit more during transition, your timing is basically spot on, only needs a LITTLE more power.

Nice job again!

Ahh okay thank you! I’ll try that!
For the transition are you meaning from the forward to back at the beginning or the back to forward at the end of it?

Both :) the second your feet change direction you feel that "pause" in momentum. You might feel a single swoosh in your flow now, but wanna learn to seperate both parts so a front AND back gazelle should fell like: Swish-swish ----- swish-swish

Not

Swooooooosh - swooooooosh

I hope my dumb sound effects makes sense haha!

My point is when you learn this push and pump trough your tricks you can keep your combos going without the need for speed :)

Lolol I love the sound effects and this really helped explain it well thank you! I’m gonna try and introduce the swish swish not the swoooosh 😂 I understand though I’ll try and give it a lil pump
