Higher matw and amatw

[StefFS]

Hey guys i've been wondering how to do high matw and amatw so that i can finish it with atw nt. I've been trying so much but the ball is always going to the side and i finish it with only htw or amatw. I can do crossover - atw nt.

[Patrick Edwards]

Well I think this works the same with tatw and I imagine it as a co-atw nt after starting the matw/tatw

Well, both MATW and AMATW are tricks full of secrets!!!! No, seriously, I think Patrick's tip should be good. All the tricks with crossover motion are about timing, e.g. many people fail to do TATW because they wanna do it asap, they do the ATW too quickly and immediately try to kick the ball up with crossover motion, resulting they don't kick it high enough and the ball falls on the ground....
It goes the same way for MATW/AMATW: do the inside ATW/HTW and when the ball reaches its "climax" (no lying, I suck at English  ) and then starts falling on the ground, wait when the right moment comes and then you can imagine the crossover motion and use all the power to kick it high as possible. It's simple, while doing crossover, you kick the ball when the ball falls on your leg too, you don't kick it before it.
So basically, it's more about timing than about power.

Wait for the ball to fall closer to the ground.

hi
matw and amatw are quite different tricks

matw is harder imo - cuz you need a goot first touch - train htw-atw (in) and then htw-matw - this will ensure you have a good first touch (cosnecutive inside atw - are needed too - at least 10-15 i guess - would be just ok) - in matw start jumpin when your foot is over the ball - i would say a lil earlier than in tatw
practice matw-matw-matw shit - consecutive matws - practice this for a while and practice things like atw-matw-htw-matw (great thing)

for amatw - the htw movement doesn't need to be high - like don't kick to high the ball - i recommmend to master co-atw nt well - so you have enough speed - i would also recommend to get good enough to be able to do co-atw nt - atw-atw etc - good thing to practice

in both cases you kick it up with the toes and when the ball is going down not still going up, the co movement gotta be like the foot going over should go over the knee - this ensure that you won't kick the ball in you leg - if you seee what i mean - plus it's good for style
plus in both cases you move your body slightly to the side - watch videos - that will give you an idea
record yourself - to see how it looks - work on style

i would say practise, power and late crossover
