Sitdown move name & tutorial please

[nomekoP1]

There's this really common sitdown trick that I can't get my head around. Its like this: your doing normal kick ups while sitting down, then, you let the ball roll down (towards your knee) & then your other leg, which is infront, hits the ball so that you can carry on with normal kick ups sittingdown. Its kind of hard to explain, so Ill add a video of JF doing it:

John Farnworth in Cannes

JF does it at minute 1:10 tp 1:12, more or less. He does it right after he rolls forwards with the ball inbetween his feet.

Thanks for all of your help

it´s called "Abdullah" or "Abdullah Move"
seriously, u don´t need a tutorial for that, it´really easy:P
look for some sit down videos, every sit down freestyler does it

well, if you can or not, could you please explain to me how to do it? cos i definatly cant

Hit the ball up when doing normal sitdown juggles. As the ball comes down move one leg over the ball, your other leg should be on the floor. Then the ball should roll down your leg (the one that is on the floor) and you have to kind of push it against the leg you went around with to pop the ball up. It also helps if you move to the side when doing this.
Hope this helps.

Depends whether u wanna learn a real abdullah or not...this is the trick in freestyle that is most commonly done wrong i think...


i think most would agree that the best at it are abdullah, jak and linder...they dont let it roll down their leg, they push the ball against there leg with their other leg very quickly. hard to explain, i think you are best off watching their videos and just looking carefully at their technique.

well, now that the threads here, i might as well ask for the name for another sitdown trick, which kind of goes like this:
You have the ball on your foot, balancing, then, you let it roll down your shin & catch it with your chin/lips on your knee (where you knee stall). You then let the ball roll down your other leg & flick it up with your foot. It usually flicks up to your head.
Heres another video. JF does it at around 1:23

John Farnworth in Norway

im not requesting a tut, cos ive nearly got it. Just want to know the name if it has one. Thanks

[nomekoP1]

ok. I think ive got most of the abdullah trick, up to the end. I need some more practice on the flick up again, as it always flicks up back to my lap or i have trouble rolling it down my leg to get to the flick up part. Any help? Thanks
