Lower example
 
Beginner
You're learning to do some tricks. You can do tatw, matw, amatw and some other easy beginner tricks

Intermediate
You have done your first nt combo (co matw/tatw/amatw/atatw) and you can do some longer combos aswell without using a crossover/xover/reverse cross

Advanced
You can do some of the more difficult lower combos (tatw amatw amatw, amatw amatw amatw)

Master
Skora, FX, Szymo, Rocco or Azun level. When you are at this level either nobody can repeat what you can do or only a very few amount of people can.



I believe that there should be more steps because the jumps are rather large but that's just my opinion.
Fx blesses himself before a patw combo, Tiernan blesses himself before a neck to sole transition.... but hey thats next generation :rolleyes:
I was going to be there...but now I'm not going to be there

skill level is just part of it, showmanship, style, variety in tricks etc. are also important factors in being a great freestyler

Yeah i dont like the way people immediately assumed that it was about Lower Body skill level.
Thats rather stupid.

Need to be more specific and think about things lads, your only making these worse.
