RMT Rope Flow Exercise - Overhand Sneak

[@CarlAxelFranzon]

Great job. I watched several others and was ready to throw my rope down until I found your tutorial.

[@Brockthedog315]

You are a good teacher. I have my flow rope coming. Can’t wait to give it a go.

[@mtnunicycler]

Turning offering different angles is So helpful!! Thank you!! 🤩✨️

[@Dingleberries345]

Love it! This is the best video on this that I’ve seen. Watched a bunch of videos and this is the one that what made it click.

[@smoovmoves]

Awesome Drew! Curious what other questions you have regarding rope flow. Feel free to drop em in the comments and i can create a video to answer those questions. Thanks for the comment my dude and keep flowin!

[@HerbertSimonDachs]

Got it immediately on the first watch . Thank you

[@bischi1940]

Oh, thank you, man, I got the first side with your help. Not perfect, but I unterstand now how it works!!!! Will need a lot of practice, but the knots in my brain are unbound now!!!!!!

[@benjaminalex7023]

Super helpful, thank you!

[@HerbertSimonDachs]

Finally a helpful tutorial 😃🙏

Great cueing, thankyou - good cueing is so important with learning moves like this - that's the best cueing i've heard so far for the sneak.

I’ve been working on this for two weeks watching tutorial after tutorial and could not get it. Watching you and following your method I had it down within 60 seconds now I’m gonna look for your tutorial on the underhand sneak.

THANK YOU

[@shyep.1456]

You are an amazing tutor...

[@smoovmoves]

I appreciate that!

[@rhorchar]

Great explanation, thank you

[@smoovmoves]

You are welcome!

[@theaalberto_]

Will try this tomorrow.. Having a hard time doing the sneak

[@emberdaylist]

Thanks for the tutorial. Any chance you could make for the underhand sneak?

[@smoovmoves]

Ed! Thanks for the request. I'll get one up soon!

[@emberdaylist]

@@smoovmoves Thanks very much. Looking forward to it.

[@andrewhutchinson6806]

@@smoovmoves i'd like to see this too - you have a great teaching style.

[@horatiojones8916]

To me, it looks like you leave your rear hand open, which results in a dragon roll movement rather than the sneak. Am I wrong?

[@smoovmoves]

Either way works. You’re not wrong. Technically on the sneak you would close the rear hand but the open hand results in an overhand throw motion which ive found is easier to learn for most people.

[@jacqui3901]

Isn’t this just a side on dragon roll? The back hand doesn’t appear to be 'sneaking'.

[@jacqui3901]

Like this ... kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKeZeayHqNx3j7M shows the dragon roll transitioning into over and underhand sneaks.

[@smoovmoves]

Yeah great observation! There are a few ways of going about it. After years of practice, I like to incorporate both the back hand “sneaking” AND the back hand palm facing up which basically mimics and overhand throwing motion. Definitely out of date instruction on this one, I’m going to make a new video to address this. Thanks for your curiosity! 👍

[@jacqui3901]

I only noticed this after watching endless other vids on the OH sneak. I'm really battling with my non-dom side, so clumsy, and can relate to your rope-throwing-on-ground move. Love your hacky sack work btw!

[@eatmykwad]

whats the idea around hitting the floor with the rope?

[@smoovmoves]

Ground strike of the rope is not necessary, just typically happens when rolling the rope. I do find a lot of benefit in it for the purpose of rhythm and consistency. Also, when rolling the rope, the rotation and sidebending through the spine does bring the hand level closer to the ground so naturally the rope will travel closer to the ground, often striking. Short answer, do what feels good for your practice.

@@smoovmoves I've only just got my first rope, looking forwards to finding my flow, keep up the good works 💪
