Thanks a lot oaky Messages like that make me want to get better!

I've made my first manip replay, I'd like some CnC on this if anyone feels up to doing so, I want to get better at manipulations, I think this is a start

About Tickle My Boomstick V2:

You did exactly what i said. I love how the replay looks now.
The only thing i could critizise is that you correct your right leg too often to get into the pose at around frame 180.
Looks like a unintended butt-wiggle.
Thats criticism on a really high level, tho.
9,9 / 10


About Mate your Fate:
I will go through this step by step again

1. Opener
Yeah I like that one. Especially the part where you spin in front of Uke to show him your big red baboon butt. (At this point Uke knows he is fucked)

2. First Contact
I didnt even notice the little punch until i watched in slow-mo. I kinda got... no opinion about that.
The lift with your foot was really nice, although you push your self too much into ukes direction, which decreases the number of possiblities you got after the lift.

3. The Stop
To be honest, I dont like that particular part. Imo manipulations look cooler when you speed up Uke instead of slowing him down. (this is of cause a result of what i said in 2.)

You maintain a little awesomeness by sliding through his legs to change your momentum, but at normal speed, you cant even notice that.

4. Sudden Madman
ManipGod Larfen once said manipulations always go without grabbing. And hes right with that. manipulation kinda became a word for send uke flying without grabbing him.

BUT
This Tripple kick was so intense.
Like a quaddrupple rainbow.
At least. So powerful. Only Boomhits. I love that part.

5. The pose
Is nice. Nothing to complain about.

6. tutti frutti (this one got no title)
What i didnt mention in any of the points above is the great flow, because its applicable for all of them.
You dont lose speed, keep up balance and float around in the air like a balloon with a hole in it.
Thats the best thing about the replay (together with the sick DMs)

Manipulate your Fate: Cool replay mate, didn't know you were into sp.
Opener: A little stale tbh, nothing that destroys the replay but you should go for something instead of waiting for a joint to fall in place like that.
330: Left leg extending and then contracted. Doesn't look really good when you do that, should've just contracted.
260: The crash into uke was a good idea, but in all honesty it looked more as if you just crushed all of your momentum. I'd find a workaround and either make tori or uke keep momentum.
Dm's are good mate, but I think you can boom on kick #2.

Tickle my boomstick: Hey I like this replay, not much to go on really apart from openers as stated above. Nice flow with grabs.

Overall you've got a nice flow in your replays. I think you should work on openers a bit more though. Otherwise you should be on your way to try to make better looking spins, harder booms, non-grab hits etc.
I agree with everything swepples said on the first replay

Second one was pretty dope too

500-440 was really stiff looking, the right elbow was raised too long imo, otherwise the opener was good.

Holy shit mate, that decap was the coolest looking decap I've seen for a while, the little grab was smart as hell.

last kick was ok, not much to say about it, you could probably get more dms but whatever

good flow, powerful hits gj
First self spar, cnc is appreciated, will put the mod below if you don't have it

I made the first like 300 frames of this replay a few months ago, and I had time today and was scrolling through my replays and found it so I decided to finish it. Idk if you all can see the difference in movement and flow from the first 300 frames to the rest of the replay, but I definitely can. Whether that's better or worse I'm not sure :V

IMPORTANT TO NOTE: Do not use very held transistion moves when transistioning from move to move to move.

Ok so you have potentional but these are key things to work on

1.) Realism - You are doing moves by jumping off your hand or launching off your toes. You do not want to do that as it doesnt add wow factor to spars and parkours for future reference.

2.) Flow - You are killing your flow way to early. Work on momentum and gainers. Alot of great examples of those here

3.) Twitches- Instead of jerking a joint (no homo), relax the joint for a frame or two then hold and rinse and repeat. A arm falling naturally is better looking then a arm jerking downwards fast as hell.

4.) Twists- Try and add some twists and or more well executed corks to your replay. It is a really well done replay for your first self spar, just needs a bit more fine tuning to be on par with Oblivion lmao.

In all man i think you have come a long way from your days parkouring with me in WAPOW. You are learning fairly quickly and it warms my heart to see. Take what i said with a grain of salt but i suggest you take a look at what i mean. Good job on your first self spar.

Also if you would like i have my own replay thread here if you wanna see my progression also

Take Care Koz

Edit: Spar or Parkour with me sometime

Bump, the selfspar wasnt really meant to be realistic, rather it was supposed to look aesthetically good, realism isnt my thing, but i guess people want any replays to be aesthetically pleasing

The replay i posted above is actually retarded but cnc it if you feel like it
