Guys he wants technique for a pass not a theory on movement or method...<br />
<br />
Watch people who's kong you like and watch where certain parts of their body (headhipsfeetkneeshands) are and where those parts are going. Just focus on fixing one piece of the movement at a time.<br />
<br />
And are you guys really trying to learn pk through cartoons now? No bueno

+1 on all that (esp that the animation is far from perfect technique)<br />
<br />
Techniques are useful in that they increase our understanding of ourselves and how we relate to the spaces around us, they are not in themselves the paths over obstacles.

Sorry to contradict Alex and Mizu, also sorry if I end up sounding like an idiot, but this worked for me, and i had a tough time learning.<br />
<br />
DO NOT PRACTICE ON ANYTHING BELOW PICNIC TABLE HEIGHT. I tried learning how to kong like that and it ruined my technique for a long period of time. I'm not sure if it will do the same to you but...<br />
<br />
find a bar or ledge that is around picnic table height with either grass or foam on the opposite end. Learn the basic technique by konging up onto something…

find a bar or ledge that is around picnic table height with either grass or foam on the opposite end. Learn the basic technique by konging up onto something like a table or ledge. Move on to the ledge or rail and try to clear the object. If you clip your feet lean more into it and tuck harder. If your feet turn sideways in mid-air its because ur body is afraid of clipping, practice by konging onto a ledge or table to teach your muscles. Whatever your problem, their is always a solution. Anyone can kong, even a lazy chubby kid with no ab muscles (me lol). If i can do it I guarentee you can, so just practice practice practice! These are the two best tutorials out there IMHO...<br />

Documentary stuff still, so I have not been training on Sundays. I will be open for earlier training this Sunday though, because we have an interview at 4:00 pm.<br />
<br />
I really want to get out there, don't get me wrong! I am not quitting parkour, and I am not losing dedication, although it may seems that way. In fact, I trained after school today for two hours.<br />
<br />
I will contact you.

Things that have helped me is to have someone watch me and tell what I'm literally doing in the air, on the ground, etc. Other than that, getting the right mindset also helped, but the thing that has helped the most is to not think too hard about it.

That animation is flawed on several levels. Try working out your own way of getting over the obstacle as fast as possible, rather than forcing yourself to do specific moves. You might come up with something far more effective.

Think about yourself doing this in slow motion, 2nd person view and I always forget, first person view. It also helps to watch videos and imagine yourself doing it in first person, sometimes the big stuff gives me the chills, a lot of it is your imagination.

Yeah, it is, where do you train on weekdays? Cause I have more free time now and would like to join you and Kirill if possible.
