Ok so i finally got the digicam off my dad again and went to film a couple of clips of me shooting with cristiano ronaldo's technique, i lost some other good clips in the process of converting the files off that crappy cam but i think there are some good ones in between
I have also taken some screendumps to compare my technique to cristiano's, watch:
1st sequence:
2nd sequence:
3rd sequence:
Theres room for improvement but overall i think it looks good from those pics, ill just have to keep working.
nice job keep working on it....some had a lot of dip...but some didnt have any... my tip is to find the valve (air hole) for the ball but the airhole in the center and strike it with ur instep...
P.S. in the second pic it looks like you are hitting it with the inside of the foot and not toes pointed down (instep)...
and for mufc1994 i always try to hit it with toes down (locked ankle) and on the side of the big toe bone, in that picture, the ball has already left my foot, i agree it looks as if i hit it on the inside of my foot in second pic but i am pretty sure i didnt

even I like to stand wide feet before a kick, but why would you want to copy that style exact... run up and follow through and all? I understand the actual kicking part, so you can get knuckle and dip, but the other stuff isn't necessary... don't force it man.
I say learn your own style, if you go pro, people won't want to watch 2 of the same players.
if he likes doing that...let him do that...he shuld try to be himself but every freekick taker has their own style and he like to dip and knuckle. just keep on doing what your comfortable with.
that was quite an impressive bit of skill. I think the other snux members are underestimating how difficult it is to learn that type of shot and to consistently get it right. so my props to you
I have tried this style of free kick and it is very difficult. If you miss hit it, it will fly over the bar. I have done that many times. But I have my own style which works for me.
Very well done macimate, its pretty sick to see someone do the C. Ronaldo style free kick. I don't know of anyone else who can do it.

I use ronaldinho's were i come at the ball from a really tight angle but not as tight as his. But when im just going for power ill hit it roberto carlos style
