Best nunchuck teacher on KZbin

[@carolinagurrola3003]

Most definitely.

[@jimmytorreon9615]

I agreed

[@apoorvasinha4085]

You are the best teacher and it took me so much time for 2 step lol

[@ylarykadventures4768]

i just bought this nunchucks. your my teacher now.

[@donsmith9722]

your the best teacher iv found on line. iv watched others but you break it down so i understand it. iv watched your videos in slow motion to clearly see what your hands are doing and practiced, practiced, practiced. love your since of humor and your not afraid to show yourself drop the chucks and make simple mistakes which we all do. your only human like the rest of us. anyway id really love to learn the tornado spin. iv watched this one video several times but just cant seem to get it. its like the figure 8 cross over but a different beat, or rythem. if anyone can teach me you can. so can you please post a training video on the tornado spin.BTW if you included some slow-mo shots that would be great. thank you for your time, ill keep an eye out on U-tube.

[@jordancomstock8979]

always had trouble with wrist rolls. always grab the chain. so frustrating

[@ildirimardahalibarani5434]

maybe u need to shorten the chain?

[@franciscot2184]

aurelion sol yeah its true most people that can use nunchaku say with me your nunchaku to long you need to short it as long as your palm my palm is 8-9 bullets and my nunchaku the chain is 14 bullets 😂😂😂😂 but im not yet to short it cuz i always forgot '_-

[@kungfulovenyc4273]

I'm going to try moving my hands along the grip or a quick drop or raise of the catching hand. I like the way the chain is I don't want to give up the weapons reach you know?

[@davidwoek3041]

Nice video, learned it after a few tries, thank you, and keep up this work :-)

[@emmalouise5255]

[@yukiannie666]

[@user-ql6pg4wc5y]

Ken, great videos! Do you have extra weight at the tips of your nunchuks? To make them more centrifugal?

[@JoshBukoskey]

Great videos and great work bro! I feel your enthusiasm and passion which goes a long way! Que: why does my hand/fingers gravitate toward spinning the chain? I'll make a vlogs and I'm going to make video from free flow Cambodia you should of been there bro, sounds like your vibe!

[@jinda8897]

Hi 1st time I saw your vids and your tutorials are amazing. Just one question, not sure if it was asked already but whats you ideal chain length? I had the impression before that it cant be shorter than the width of the palm but what is the ideal length? Thanks!

[@ildirimardahalibarani5434]

learned it thanks

[@408glife]

Sucks that the video cuts off in the middle of your explanation but i get the concept your getting at. Im a get started now.

[@reginaldjohnsonrocks]

Dude that shit you did in the beginning the one handed front roll and back roll is killing me! I keeping throwing it after I get the first roll haha

[@thrx00]

Nice outro

[@mendezcampos641]

[@timedriverable]

I'm actually using Lee Bardens speed chucks and am wondering if the rope is not long enough to perform these exercises?

[@skinnylegend2916]

Hi ken I am getting some chucks on Wednesday will it be a stupid idea to get some oak

[@vishalmuralidharan4515]

Mr Ken, I've been trying it for some time, but the nunchaku just keeps slipping out of my hand. Any suggestions. (P.S. My Kwang Jeon Nim said my nunchaku is good enough.)

[@justinconn5530]

i been doun front to back what u doin at the begiining ever since i was 6 or so. drum sticks, baseball bats, nunchuks, sticks brooms etc. my first pairr of wooden nunchucks i was 6 or 7 but im 28 now an wanting a bigger pair

[@chetansingh2193]

This is where i am stuck !!

[@DoctaJay6]

Is it OK if the nunchucks rolls more on my palm? I rarely feel the chain on my wrist.

[@tinglee2780]

This video is great help but I just don't seem to be able to do it I can't seem to be able to to get my right hand to open up and grab the other chuck it always misses. I'm still always practicing but I don't seem to get it. I understand if I'm to young because I'm only 12 but I just can't do it. But still, on the bright side your still a great teacher and I like every one of your videos!

[@tinglee2780]

thats a problem aswell I dont have facebook. but the problem is grabbing it then spinning at again

[@connormills5785]

Im 19 and im struggling like hell to do it, i allways quote bruce lee who says to be like water. What he means is to let all your motios with the nunchuck be fluid as possiable. I cant do it so i do a basic transtion which he shows at the start of the video. Now ive only been doing it a week and i used to use nunchucks when i was 12 but ive started doing it again, youll get the hang of it one day

[@jatinbisht324]

Hello Sir. I require your help. Do these rolls works on every sized nunchucks or there is any specific length of chain?... The problem is after the roll, some part of the rod remains in my hand and most of the time only chain remains in my hand. So it is difficult to roll with that position. Please help me out.

[@rrishighosh6168]

I got a lot of help from this video... but sometimes while doing the rolls I catch the chain instead of the opp stick... what can I do to avoid this

[@aminmoh7507]

wooden - steel or plastic nunchuck ? which is better ?

[@mrbobjrsrv]

Hey Ken, your video cuts off in the middle of a sentence at the end of it (4:10). Can you tell me what you were trying to say?

[@lunchbox1993]

Wish I had a pare of nunchucks

[@g.ramirez7250]

So fucken cool man !!! Am 38 !! I feel too old to learn but will shure try it !!!

[@lukash.361]

I have practiced the wrist rolls befor i watched your vids, now i can di them sooo easy ;) i have done them with one hand, whats the name of that ?? (two-handed they are wrist rolls but one-handed?)

[@lukash.361]

*do

[@guts382]

My nunchuck chain ⛓️was little bit long . I use extra twist for rip roll is it ok?

[@Vishnu-fr2kg]

hai ken.my nunchucks have long chain than your chucks.So whether i should continue with same chucks (or) reduce its length

[@JoseEPacheco]

they have to be the size of your shoulder to your finger tips.

[@Vishnu-fr2kg]

thank u Jose E. Pacheco

[@kavadarajender423]

Super👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌☝✌

[@Kay-rs5gi]

im trying to learn this but i cant get it right, the chain keeps ending up in my hand instead of the nunchuky :/

[@Mewtwo420]

What kind of nunchaku is that? whitewax? I got cord cos someone said it was better but it slips and gets to long.

[@PhireBall]

The video seemed to have cut off too early

[@judyostrander1418]

i just got nunchucks so I don't know how to do much but I can do 8 and do that Thang that you did in your 6th video

[@Generic549]

I have been trying to practise this but I'm having trouble. Whenever I try and roll it I end up with the chain in my hand. I swear I'm not reaching for it, looking at my pair of chucks I've noticed that the length of the chain on mine means it wraps completely around my hand :/ Any suggestions?

[@pressieguy]

ken, what happened to the rest of the video. i can master the rip, but im struggling to get it continuous rolling on the hand itself. keep up the awesome tutorials :D

[@pressieguy]

***** thanks ken, just as i sent my post, i started getting it. :D. my chucks are getting banged up tho. you rock!! :D

[@robinbluemoon747]

Thank you for this. I wish I could see the basics in slow motion.

[@robinbluemoon747]

Thanks!

[@LeonYoum]

Yes senpai

[@andycho2933]

Hey man, how long is your chain. I use rope and mine is about 7cm

[@lukash.361]

I Think its more then ten cm ....12 or 14

[@karanthaker24]

How to do a wrist-roll if the chain distance is long?

[@jsjcc26]

I would advise against oak if you are starting out. I found it best to start out with padded chucks, then I moved onto wood chucks with a rope for something different. Also have an oak pair with a chain, but while I'm still very much an amateur I stay away from them. They hurt like hell if you miss a grab or something and whack yourself in the arm or head.

[@farizrafi5100]

Yeap. I just jumped into steel and hurts myself a lot. No regrets.

[@MrCrazygoku]

Helloooo KEN , can you please make a video for te infinitive back to back grip , cause I can do the RIPS from left to rigt and the other way, but the infinitive wrist roll , I just can't understand how you explain it Ken , and that makes it so far more difficult for me to learn a figure 8 wristroll. I LOVE your TUTORIALS but this one ; ( The infinitive WRISTROLL I just can't do it ) My name is Gert Baerts from EUROPE BELGIUM and I learned already a lot from you , even more than the figure 8 WRISTROLL " the figure 8 WRISTROLL I also can't do yet because I do't understand the infinitive back to back grip " ( but the infinitive WRISTROLL I just don't understand how you alway's get it into a back to back grip again. !!!! If you have time I really would appreciate , otherwise I just have to find another way to learn it. YOU ROCK KEN & thank you alot for all your time .!!!!!

[@aaronwayne1279]

Hello Maxi :D

[@harambeslittlekid1312]

0:45 Hahahhaha he's so smug because he too knows that's fucking awesome...

[@TrendingPendingVideos]

Wtf help ME .... idk if my chain is too long BUT when I do the back to back it rather....... I end up holding in the middle of the chain.... OR I can’t do it infinity because I end up catching the nunchuck too low, not on the chain but my little finger is basically almost off the end so i can’t get enough grip to do it and that happens all the time.. another thing is it will end up hitting the other nunchuck . But main one is grip ends up too low and I can’t do it more than once because grips too low or the chain bounces after doing one but of course the way to fix that is just keep swinging but because I grip too low it’s hard and I’ve tried to adjust grip holding it lower but it ends up in the same place Idk what to do but my nunchuck looks like it’s going to the same point around my wrist as yours so I don’t think it’s too long?

[@TrendingPendingVideos]

ken hill I use a chain one foam from amazon lol it was like £10 I mean it feels okay it’s metal inside rather than a pvc pipe thing most have so I think it’s a better one than some Is the other nunchuck meant to touch the other? Basically when I’m doing anything like spin it like you hear it hit the other one but then I know you say well let go earlier lol but then it will fail though I tend to do it on natural feeling and instinct Is the chain when doing the tricks meant to go around the back of hand OR The wrist ? I can happily do all apart from back to back infinite one i just cannot do it more than twice without it like rather httting the other chick and failing or it just flies off lol it’s Somthing about that trick that I’m not made to do for some reason I guess i can’t really know unless I do it and find out or maybe I can use my iPhone slow motion and watch it and I’ll see what’s causing it

[@atarahmon3341]

you are cool I tried to do it but I hit me on the head

[@rrishighosh6168]

what's your Facebook page or name?

[@charanchowdary8286]

I am unable to move from front roll to back roll any one plz help me

[@donotgettmeseriously]

my nunchucks have a chain that's to long for this :o (makes some from newspaper and tape)

[@LILHAWK123]

For me, the rope wraps around my thumb or I do it so fast it spins out of my hand.

[@themagicalacidtrip3812]

Chad Peacock get chain ones, they’re more better and suited for wrist rolls

[@abhishekvishwakarma4089]
