I think why ppl say sits are easy is coz all they do are cross-xover-revers cross-shin-head-knee...
you know, the BASICS
does Abdullah do those till now? no, he goes way beyond normal cross combos
All three (or four I should say, coz ground moves is a form of freestyle) are as hard in their own way.
you won't really be a master in any of them unless you dedicate yourself to any of them
like for instance, abdullah is only a master at sits, Skora at Air combos, Magnus at uppers
that shows each of them are as hard as each other coz you have to dedicate yourself to one of them to be a master at one of them
(you get what I mean, my brain is all fuzzy so my english is messed up)
the ultimate best freestyler would dedicate like 3 hours to each of them each day

Haha, thank you man lol :booty:

Well if its based only on Lower, then you guys are basically saying that:
The likes of Mr.Woo/Nam/Séan/JK/Abbas are Intermediate Skill Level Freestylers just because they dont do hardcore lowers ?

You guys need a wake up call, those kinds of Freestylers are more Masters of Freestyle than combo freestylers will ever be, simple truth.

I did one for lower only because that's where it's easiest to see a clear pattern of what one learns first and what comes after and it's also very easy to compare difficulty.

And don't put words in my mouth because I didn't say shit of what you wrote. I gave an example where I explain the different stages of skill level in lower. I never claimed any of those that you mentioned are at an interemediate level. In lower they are, most deffinately, but then where as we start discussing performance level they might be classed as masters.
Fx blesses himself before a patw combo, Tiernan blesses himself before a neck to sole transition.... but hey thats next generation :rolleyes:

Nah oli man, your first post was that you assumed that Shenker was talking about Lowers, you automatically took it as a Lower skill level discussion, which is bullshit.

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.

Read the first 2 words of my post

In my opinion you should be ashamed of this post. You jumped to conclusions and comented on a post which you havn't even read. Tom did the same thing then he read the whole post. Atleast he was man enough to see his mistake.

Because writing one for freestyle in general, including all styles, is too difficult.
