PALM SPIN TUTORIAL - How to: FREERUNNING (Jesse La Flair)

[@palmer7133]

this really helped, the reason this tutorial was good is because not only does it teach you good technique for the palm spin but also it shows you certain steps on how to approach it, I had a good idea on how to do it but no idea where to start. thank you for making this tutorial!!

[@TheDonOrange]

Jesse, thanks to you and one of your awesome wall run tutorials i started parkour and freerunning and it changed my life! thank you so much for this and you will always be my fav traceur!

[@LaFlairParkour]

Its my pleasure! More tuts coming soon!

[@aabv5]

ive learned almost all the tecniques of your tutorials, only left doble kong, webster, sideflip, and wallflip, you are amazing, ty for your videos

[@33BRR]

Great tutorials, I love that you often talk about common problems that happen when you fail a move and how to get out safely. Keep it up!

[@LaFlairParkour]

Planning on doing a gym tour this year!

[@grahamjohnson9698]

You have very nice tutorials on your channel. I started doing everything you said on here and then eventually I could get it on a high ledge! This was the first move I've even done for parkour and i'm hoping to learn a lot more thanks to your videos.

[@LaFlairParkour]

The fact that you are learning it faster is a good sign your muscle memory is working fine. The truth is it is most likely your confidence that needs to be rebuilt which is completely normal. Doing it on a rail is very similar and I would use the advanced pop technique I talk about.

[@nickconwell186]

Thank you sooo much Jesse! I've been looking for something to impress my friends with haha...I will be watching a lot of your videos and training the rest of the summer so that I can have a couple new tricks when school starts. Thank you again, you are definetly an idol and inspiration to me.

[@iShaunxD]

Hey jesse wanted to say a huge thanks on behalf of people all around the world who you have helped with parkour/freerunning, keep up the awesome tutorials. XD

[@UniqueornBacon]

I haven't regretted subscribing to you. Your videos are incredibly helpful as well as entertaining!

[@RonPark312]

Thanks for all the tutorials Mr. LaFlair! Seriously helping a lot with learning parkour!

[@FNHot]

I just watched this, went downstairs and tried it on my freezer. Took about 20 minutes, but I can do it flawlessly. It's all about keeping your weight over the ground and not over the object. Thanks so much man!

[@pktom987]

thanks so much for these videos. every time i watch your video i just smile no matter if i had a bad or good day.

[@Psychtributes]

this is perfect timing 4 this video. i have been trying to learn the palm spin today but keep doing something wrong and can't get it. so i can't wait 4 the video. can't wait to get home from school tomorrow to practice some more now.

[@ferionerodak273]

Jesse La Flair, you are the best parkour teacher on youtube.

[@hcantrell10]

Hey Jesse, that video on Shane's channel with you and him and ninja and waverunner was actually very fun to watch. It's cool watching the pros try new things and just have fun. You guy's should do some more of those kinds of vids too

[@willsalazar3258]

yay! palm spin! your videos really help, still trying to get the back flip down but i'll be practicing this has hard as i practice the other moves. thanks jesse!

[@LaFlairParkour]

is it built for parkour or a gymnastics place?

[@jakeMWG]

Hello from Australia, your tuts are really helpful on learning new moves keep it up :D

[@3759masterchief]

Thank you for doing these videos, your the inspiration that got me interested in parkour and your tutorials help me stay with it! your awesome

[@macmaster345]

Jesse, you have helped me a lot! Though I would rather start at a gym or something, you have helped me start to perform this amazing art. Thank you!! :)

[@TheMagican614]

Awesome tutorial Jesse I can,t wait to practice

[@3peace345]

You make the best tutorials ever!!

[@LaFlairParkour]

ELITE PARKOUR IS INCREDIBLE!

[@RomanovD3]

Thanks to the exercise you suggested, the one involving finishing the spin while starting on the object, I was finally (it seems) able to truly learn the actual spinning motion and do this trick with both left and right hand :D. Using the same principle also, I figured out how to do it with both hands (like a cartwheel), and I'm working on doing it with the opposite hand as well (spin left with the right one). Thank you so much man, you're a great guy :).

[@123WonbyOne]

Jesse, I think your tuts are the best. Thx man!

[@PoseidonsRage21]

If all your tutorials are this way then you do a very good job at explaining the moves

[@LaFlairParkour]

Sick I bet they look fly as hell!

[@AyanSinghUSA]

Thank you man u taught me everything ik

[@arvindbhallamudi9585]

THIS is the tutorial i needed!! looks awesome! I'll start learning it tmrw :D

[@Psychtributes]

O hey. i haven't gotten it yet but your video is helping out a lot. i am still a beginner just started this month. So i got a lot to learn but your videos are very helpful. Thanks for the videos man.

[@bonfreerun]

thanks for your vids. it help me better in palm spin:). but i still wait for your tutorials about b twist, cork and many free running skills

[@NickyRamone77]

Man, thanks very much! Excellent tutorial, as usual.

[@rebelsheep23]

The most detailed tutorial of palm spin I've ever found so far.

[@karolkarma4093]

Jesse I saw all of your videos, subscribed and I haven't found any wall spin tutorial so please can you make one?

[@Yanny_]

you have inspire me to do new things... hello from Puerto Rico!!!

[@cyianmccann135]

thanks for the advice learnt it very easily and quickly

[@igorpotgieter]

hey Jesse, your vids are awesome! random question, but what pants do you wear when you train, i dont like cargo pants, they get to hot, jeans limit my movement, and shorts dont give that bit of protection against cuts and scrapes, what can i wear? please answer, regards from South Africa

[@3759masterchief]

can't wait, i really want to learn this!

[@silasklug6863]

I just added this to favorites... hoping it lives up to my expectations

[@Darkeiser.7]

So i have recently fell in love with parkour, but im completely our of shape "50 lbs overweight" and i dont have the best balance. I am really thinking about getting more into doing parkour than just watching it. That and i have a goal of being better than my nephew and my sons. so im a little motivated. I landed this move over a dozen times now. (on Lower ledges.) thinking about getting over my fears a little and work my way up to higher walls... None the less this is a great tutorial. Thanks

[@joaquinmckinney6525]

Thanx Jesse got everything down very very helpful

[@shadowwolf22100]

dude your my idol! youve helped me soo much with your tutorials and after i graduate i plan on moving to LA to learn at tempest XD

[@AjSours]

Jesse LaFlair is my idol :) Thank you sooo much for getting me into parkour and just being awesome!! :D

[@hcantrell10]

Hey Jesse, maybe for the next tutorial, poll us on like a cheat gainer, or some of the "easier/quicker to learn flips that still look very cool" btws can't wait for this vid to be available!!!! Oh and you should totally come train in Charlotte for a little!

[@scorpyful]

Great Tutorial but iv been watching so many palm twist videos but for some reason im not able to do it and i cant seem to figure out what im doing wrong! The movement is so simply but its wierd how im not able to do it! But still ill try take on board some of the stuff you mentioned in the video may help me with my problem! Thanx for the great video and Keep it up!

[@asmiralo]

very helpful .. and i find it much easier taking your advises in consideration ... thanks :)

[@14supersonic]

So about that first person video, I want more! It was really good. reminded me of Mirrors edge.

[@RomanovD3]

Thanks man, tha was brilliant. It's been a while since I've been able to do this trick, but I never actually got the edge of it and I'm always fearing that something will go wrong when I do it! With this progression I hope to clear it once and for all. Could you put a note in the description on how to progress to this move with a single hand? I've learned it with a single hand and I'm having trouble getting used to use both :D.

[@mrfowhawk]

finally i have figured out what i was doing wrong because of this, THANK YOU JESSE!! oh btw isnt this the west side pavillion parkour spot?

[@LeonMonschauer]

Your tutorials improved so much!

[@hiei4714]

Man you have the best tutorials. Umm and when did you start learning parkour??

[@LaFlairParkour]

+Ty-z RIND 10 years ago

[@mofoyaknow]

Thnx for posting a lot again Jesse

[@thetoastysensations]

So pumped for this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@3759masterchief]

I have been waiting for this video since I was two!

[@Spartavionaz]

Hey Jessie, should the approach for a palm spin be a punch or a split step? I tried both and punch worked well for me evn though i still dont know how to do it completely. Thanks!

[@LaFlairParkour]

thats awesome glad I could help! =)

[@gmkgoat]

Can't wait for the new video.

[@BraedenLitch]

Awesome!! Very helpful!!

[@hgerinofcus]

Do you take a slightly different approach to rail precisions to make up for the slope and less surface area?

[@vincentdagostini774]

quick question, do you say that you do freerunning and parkour? Im just curious because there almost always seems to be some kind of tricking or flips and what not in your videos.

[@KyleSmith-hm5cv]

Hey dude your tuts got me into parkour thanks a lot!

[@oelj1]

wow! Cool and easy move!

[@LaFlairParkour]

Cant about to head out sorry but I plan on doing some soon

[@bizarre_jojo2424]

hey jesse with a lot of the moves i find it easier to do it on a higher object for exapmle i couldnt get the first reverse vault progression but when i tried it on a wall i got it first try, and one more thing, what shuld i do if i live in the high desert and have practically no where to train?

[@bbearshare]

Hey mate, do you plan doing a wallspin tutorial any time soon? :) Keep up with the awesome stuff you do, lots of support from Macedonia

[@bryantin7022]

[@tenchu95]

[@Fl0wParkour]

Hey Jessie, I try to do Parkour at my house but it's wide open, flat, and there's not much there but a few trees. Have any Ideas where I can do Parkour (besides my house)

[@BiggestRoy]

me an my friend Sam learned a lot from your videos and would be amazing if you came to Apex movement in denver on your tour

[@RoflSroDox]

In this spot where he is there are so many good spots to jump, wall climb and other vaults so amazing spot

[@willsalazar3258]

so i got no gym so i train in 20 degree weather at an old middle school a cross the street. does tempest have any warm weathered gear?

[@kamdevin]

That was cool the way you did the video... cool!

[@febuary1497]

Thank you ...i learn so much

[@LaFlairParkour]

Sweet!

[@LaFlairParkour]

sick!

[@aidanstran2462]

hey jesse, question... when youre spinning on your left hand, should you let your entire hand spin across the ledge, or should you have your hand in place and rotate using your wrist?

[@loganjones9457]

Your videos awesome and I landed it I know this is off topic 😆 but what shoes are those? Obviously Nike but what kind of nikes?

[@LaFlairParkour]

sure thing Jake!

[@theothergrayson801]

Yeah, I watched this video yesterday in afternoon and i did it in the evening in gymnasium, Thanks !

[@LaFlairParkour]

me too

[@figweb]

I am having trouble going verticle. so instead of spining straight left or right. i more swoop around. any tips on how to get verticle. cuzz otherwise I just turnmyself around on a ledge/wall..

[@Vaultagepk]

yeah man im good, glad to see you're still uploading content for us :)

[@SureShotMushroom]

Hey Jesse! Are hi-top shoes a good or bad show for parkour?

[@MrIzzy5466]

In the park I usually practice at there are these half picnic benches that are awesome for jumping on.

[@Renrutier]

i have always had trouble doing this move and i actually learned the wall spin before this move but my problem is that i have a twisting and whirling my legs around problem with the palm spin. how would you explain on how to fix it? And i have everything down but its when im squared with the obstacle, i go into a thief vault or dash out?

[@LaFlairParkour]

sure thing

[@kashmiralarcon3950]

How do you even get on the roofs jesse Do you do parkour to get up there?

[@LaFlairParkour]

Hopefully this will help

[@morbidkilla]

I learnt from a Bboy flair, hand placements the same, but I didn't precision up and over, my outer leg kicks up for air (hight) and then my inner leg whip under to make me pivot around my hand... 3 techniques for legs in breaking: Swings, Kicks and whips... They work wonders...

[@JokermanParkour]

Is there any other trick to doing it on the wall instead of ledge? Keep making videos I love watching them!

[@pinkvacuum]

jesse can you answer my question ive been doing the palm spin but when i do it i usually end up half like I spinned then when its gonna be half thats the time im gonna fall how do I make it succesful like you do

[@marvinthielepodcast2416]

I finally did it, thanks man!
