Magellan?

[ningja]

any specific advice on how to practice magellan? such as: specific combos that help if you can do them, technique.. etc. cheers 

[JoshClarkeFS]

do the last kickup a little bit higher and as it comes to the magellan use the end of your toe for the first movement and do it with power!

[samfs]

yeah I agree with joshclarkeFS, that had helped me a lot. practice doing high outside atws a lot (common sense...). Once you get that, try hatw-co nt, so like you do a high outside atw with strong foot, then do a co with ur left foot nt. It should help you get the technique of doing the high atw. Once you've got that down, try to think of magellans ending just as a simple htw cuz if u think about it too much it gets harder. Hope it helped

there are two things i recomend training:

high, fast atw. hit it with the end of your toes and put all the speed you have into it.

and the other thing sounds stupid but imo it helps a lot - kick it up to about waist height, hesitate for a second, then with your other leg try and complete the htw. it will help u to get used to the speed of the second rev.

then when u can do both comfortably you should be able to do magellan, good luck!

i think beck atw helped me a lot because the first part with the high hatw is the same.
for the second part, you can train high htw like ethan said, or you do cross htw nt.

[alexfs]

yo i practice the following combo - htw-hatw-htw-hatw-htw-hatw - like million times like that until you just can't do more

i guess the most i did was like 15 or 20 - this gives you a good first touch - cuz you get the hatw after htw
also htw-tatw-htw-tatw - good thing to be able to do


imo magellan isn't that hard - but still may take a while to learn

[ningja]

cheers for advice guys, i'll put it all into account when i practice

yea i also practiced that for latw & magellan

[Reynoldz]

Try maybe hatw-co nt.
Also get you atw high by hitting it with your toes.
As Ethan said with kicking the ball up,waiting a second then complete it.
Hope you get it

I don't practice them much, but I kept in mind that my leg has to be faster than the ball when it's going up, and trying to have my foot (the one doing the revolution) on the ground before the ball reaches its highest point. Maybe some more ATWs would be good, I landed it when I could do +-25 of them. Although I had a miserable weak foot

[Onas]

yo i practice the following combo - htw-hatw-htw-hatw-htw-hatw - like million times like that until you just can't do more

I must say this is a VERY VERY good advice. I trained it for a while even with my weak foot and the results were really good!

[numberten]

hatw-co nt is a sweet looking trick, never tried it.
I will work on that one as well.


I keep getting close on the Magallen and even dug it out a few times.  I just need to train it more and I know I can start getting it cleaner and putting into combos.  Like a lot of tricks it's not all about speed,  but more about precision.    I will keep working on this one.  Thanks for the tips I will try them.
