    Yeah I actually get exactly what you mean. That is the time I actually hit the stunt plane... when I waited for zero motion. I've actually realized that most tricks seem to require this sort of precision - but it's the part of the whole thing I'm having the most trouble developing.

    Almost have to stop trying so hard to get the trick in order to get the trick if that makes sense. ;)

    You mean stun planes hhh :D jkjk

    And the expresion you are looking fpr is hang time.


    Pull up the tama with a half turn and wait for it to come on its peak. Focus the hole and then just downspike it.


    Or stunplane it :) if you pull the ken up.


    The whole trick is actually in a good pull up of the tama or ken...depending on what you are doing

    Haha, I like this. And so true!

    One day when you're a master, your students will come to you and say "Sensei, how do we do stuntplane"?

    And you'll answer: "Must stop trying to do trick in order to do trick."

    @Ben Lowe reminds me of the scene in forgetting Sarah Marshall where pe-pyo-pi says "DO LESS"

    Or in the Matrix where Morpheus says "stop trying to hit me and hit me!"
