The Cobra Cut

Postby Blade Master » Aug 9th, '05, 19:39



This is probably a stupid page, but I could use some help with the Cobra Cut :shock:. If you don't know what this your missing out. This is one of the top four hardest one-hand cuts ever created. And it was made be De'Vo (one of the best XCMs in the USA).

Here's they're website with has a few vid's with the Cobra Cut (and many other marvel's to the XCM world). http://www.superhandz.com/

So hears my problem. I'm having a very hard time lifting the platform up to balance it on my middle finger. And I can never get the top packet to roll of it even when I do get it on. Any tips? :wink:

Get bigger hands, thats my problem with it, hands are too small to grasp the packets. I can't seemto get it to balance, even when i plac eit on, practice pratice and patience is what I need i guess.

The tricks look nice, but way (WAY) to expensive.

Well after four hours of watching TV while performing the CC every other five seconds I've finally got the bulk of the trick down. But dude, my hand is ssssooooo sore. :lol:

However, I have yet to get the top packet to roll off. :shock:

Try sweeping your hand up and towards yourself (ie diagonally up towards you). This helped me to get the feel of the top packet rolling off.

While doing this ,however, you should tilt your hand upwards. This is a sure way to get the top packet to roll off :D
