Like everyone has already said, the kamalio move wasn't perfect. But if you think it is then thats fine, i couldn't be bothered arguing with you. What concerns me more is, what the hell was that bandana and why were you wearing it on your head like that in public? Dude, if people see you trying to freestyle wearing shit like that, they are forever going to associate freestyle with dickhead wanna be gangsters.
Lmao at this.

Just to say, leave in peace to the "south american freestyle champion" he knows what he does.

umm, ok, i showed the video to a few friends, a couple of them mentioned that the lift was to fast so it doesnt look like a normal kamalio, and i guess thats true, it doesnt look very good, im not going to lie though, i still like how it looks but yeah it needs to be smoother, so yep, i was being arrogant by saying it was perfect as its not...anyways i will work on that to make it a smoother motion with no bounces or anything, sorry for the arrogance, sometimes i forget that alot of the guys who comment on my videos are freestylers who are alot better than me and i should just listen to theyre advice and shut up and instead i think its just people trying to hate on me so i get arrogant and shit....also, i saw some comments about my bandana, hahaha, well let me explain, i have long hair atm and i dont like using caps to FS and beanies just keep falling down over my eyes when i am in the middle of a combo so i was practising about a week ago and i just went in to the house to see what i could put on to stop my hair getting in my eyes and i saw a scarf i had just lying around so i made it in to a bandana and it is really comfortable so thats why i use it hahaha, anyways, i have been ending my practice sessions with kamalio move variations the past 4-5 days, i got this little combo today and i think its pretty cool, the first kamalio bounced i know, i will work on that, the combo is still pretty cool though :)

the problem is your leg is pretty static and it looks like you're waiting for the ball to drop onto it, that's why it bounces and looks a bit strange. If you want my advice I would say move your leg into the ball, so bring your leg out a bit further then it can come in, catch the ball and lift it up in one motion. Try turning your body a bit more aswell.

its a bit hard to stall the ball if i make a wider movement with my leg as the ball will get more momentum, i tried turning my body like you would normally do for a kamalio on the first one but then i just have to turn back around to be able to throw it backwards, i could do it for the last one though, thanks

yeah the ball needs more momentum, that's why when you complete the move the ball lifts about 10 centimetres off your foot and looks bad.

dunno much about rake, but i think you need to do it more relaxed, your leg looks really stiff

bigmac is right. it may be hard, but if you only do whats easy how are you gonna ever get any better? so listen to the advice you were given.. dont wait for the ball, bring you foot to the ball and scoop it up. good luck on learning the move. :)

Also, as you scoop it up you need to bend your knee a little.  That straight leg that you do looks unbalanced (like you may fall over) and ugly.  I don't freestyle so you can count me in the 98%, and if any of the actual freestylers think this advice is incorrect then say so, it's just my opinion.  I just watch a lot of freestyle.

I'll tell you what though; it won't help you on the pitch!
