has the elastico improved in this vid?

   
here is other vedio of elastico has it improved? here is the link http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=nz% ... 4P6w%3D%3D
   
Hey ricardo, it doesn't really look to have improved that much, sorry.

To me it looks like you are just scooping up the ball and trying to flick it, if I were you I would first try to perform it on the ground, it will help more and work better.
fuck you

thnx but it is the only way i make it goo forwards and i dont scoop it i make it goo left then right i find this really easier than the ground verison which make the ball return to me instead of going forwards
   
It doesn't have to go forward, the move is supposed to put the defender off balance, the ball going forward may actually be worse because it would be easier for the defender to control the ball.
fuck you

i dont know but when i post vedios before they said it should go forward anyway is it okay with this elastico if i made it go more to the right side to be more effective and confusing (i already use my weight during making it) and i noticed ronaldinho does these twe versions but he uses the mid air more to humilate deffender and putting the ball between his legs
   
hey any replies or feedback????
   
Don't take this the wrong way, but that would never sell a defender. You're simply moving the ball, and you're not putting any of your body into the move. In my opinion though, when done correctly, this is the easiest move to sell. Reason being is that to truly be able to snap the ball and keep it low, all your weight needs to explode from your left leg (assuming you're doing the trick with your right foot) in order to be able to bring the ball back at its furthest possibly point. When you do this, your left leg naturally bends, and in throwing your weight from there your upper body automatically sways to the right dramatically, which is what absolutely kills defenders. Keep practicing with a lower center of gravity with the points I put out and you should improve, and when you master that technique you will have a move that when put out will 100% always stand defenders up and make them look stupid.

hey what about this one??????http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=itUdiXLFWgt9HtakfVivIA%3D%3D
   
I don't even know what that trick is called, but it's certainly not an Elastico, you are just rolling the ball with the inside of your foot.

Not very impressed, and it would be hard to find a time during a game to execute this properly and have it work.
fuck you

i have worked on it and improved the move in this vedio http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=itU ... ivIA%3D%3D please rate
   
I finally got a chance to view all the vids (it wasn't working be4 for some reason :? ). The problem is, on your first movement (the outward cut), instead of actually performing a cut with the outdoor of your foot, you're rollling it with the bottom of your foot outwards and then using the inside to cut it across your body.

Try this: stand upright, now just cut it (with the outside of your foot) left, take a step, and then use the inside to cut it right. Slowly make your movement faster, and once you got it, do it without taking the step. Of course, add your body movements to sell the move.

The move you're currently showing us MIGHT work in a game, but skilled players can do elasticos from a moving position and that move looks risky from a moving position.
   
hey kaka do you mean about this vid?http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=itUdiXLFWgt9HtakfVivIA%3D%3D
   
That wouldn't work either. Just go and practice this for a couple of weeks and then post a video. You can't expect any significant improvement on a couple days of practice.

i cant practice without knowing how it is done correctly it is a useless thing i have many questions which please anyone answer them like the first touch (flip) which part of the outside of the foot connect the ball is it the upper area or the middle of the outside and the second question which is the exact point of the ball you should strike it to perform it right and my last question when you finished the (flip) what is the direction of your leg to connect it with the flap is it from under the ball or the outside of the ball or what? i know the questions is little crap but please understand and try to help me:S

Ignore the annoying flashing effect at the beginning. Focus on the way he knocks the ball outwards and tilts his body slightly outwards to move the defender.
