You can also do pillars!! I only didn’t mention it because I was going to focus on it a bit more In the air roll video coming out soon!

[@Algpro-kk7mw]

where are the workshops!!!!! what the workshop namesss

[@AmiroAmito-qx9ci]

Hey bro I give u a challenge, if u can solo me on a rocket league tournament I will transfer u 980$ today

[@AmiroAmito-qx9ci]

Whoever wanna join the challenge reply to me saying me

[@MoreTickle]

Something to note about flying backwards, when you first learn this and try to fly normally, you may find that you can't or it feels hard for some reason, this is natural, your brain for some reason is trying to use the backward controls for normal flying, so just spend some time flying back and fourth between the goals like normal to correct this.

[@pepijngoes537]

what is that last custom map called

[@MovieGasm]

Looking forward to that in depth guide Thanovic.

[@abdullashafi580]

Dang u play potato League 😮😮😮🎉

[@ouaisjsuisbelgeetquoi]

flop

[@juicetin6425]

As a Diamond 2 trying to reach champ, the exercises involving flying backwards and/or without air roll around the edges really showed to me what I was lacking in the air, as I had little to no use for those mechanics in a competitive game. Usually, the mechanics I already had covered up what I needed to actually learn. Thank you so much Thanovic!

[@vectorm3832]

How are you now?

[@theguywhoasked6104]

U in champ yet ?

[@yahgi]

@@theguywhoasked6104 I’m champ 1 div 3 in 2s and div 1 in 3s, I can’t even control my car how he was is the video. If you practice this you’ll be in champ easily

[@adrianyeager6463]

Are you in champ now?

[@paulhorton7792]

The fact you put thought into it and made it so everyone could practice not just " go do rings" shows what a great content creator you really are! Keep up the good work and can't wait to give this a shot! Might even try your button layout.

[@dc_maru]

well, rings really help

[@aleph_6]

@@dc_maru Nobody’s trying to refute that fact, op was just saying that it’s nice to see someone make an aerial control video that’s all inclusive (for example, this video is really helpful for me, who plays console)

[@Kimmerdinger]

@@aleph_6 Andy for me, who does play on pc but struggles with finding the basics to keep training every day. It's really good for every platform :)

[@LxstAgain]

This is probably one of the best videos on the topic. I’ve been playing for maybe 4-5 months, made it to diamond 2 in under 300 hours and could hit basic aerials, dribbles, flicks, and stuff like that, but struggled with anything in the air that wasn’t a basic aerial. It was starting to impact my games a lot, even with pretty good positioning and game sense, so In the last few weeks I’ve been using these same drills and my air control is SOO much better. I went from not being able to air dribble, to being able to air dribble with air roll and without, very consistently.

[@SamiBeanie_XD_XD]

not me playing for 3 years and still stuck in gold

[@TheDevil69270]

I'm glad you keep catering to all audiences, especially the beginners that will start the game and always be looking for a recent video. I'm kinda surprised you dropped the pillars map advice, it is truly what got be better at air control and directional air roll !

[@Jomama7272]

Flying around the Pillars map in freeplay is also a great way to practice. Just fly in a figure-8 pattern forward, backward, or with a spin. It's actually quite difficult and helped me a lot.

[@coldhotsauce8579]

Could not have uploaded this at a better time

[@merojo]

right?? i started learning clean air dribbles today

[@0AThijs]

Yep, I finally decided to learn about mechanics.

[@ktdaishokl8457]

[@lover.fpsONig]

True, just got into air dribble's and double touches. Bet this will help out a lot

Any other time would be also great😅

[@yellinatclouds9213]

I've neglected my car control skills for a long time and this was very helpful. Thank you!

[@XXEsotericEricXx]

Well done, and thanks. It's easy to take for granted the free tips and forget the amount of time that goes into creating the content as well as the time in training. Keep up the great work.

[@Astro-vt3bx]

Bro, I did the flying backward drill so many times that my muscle memory has gotten so used to it I forgot how to fly normally 😢

[@joannalomas8999]

The struggle is real 😪😪

[@FFaithTTV]

A big tip people don’t take seriously is the fact your boost is what moves almost 75% of your car the input from the analog stick is what twists the car than the timing of boost is what makes you move that direction, practice focusing on your boost when your flying goal to goal it will help you better control your cars angle and better your aerial control to eventually get better with the ball

[@Thanovic]

That’s actually solid, never thought of it like that

[@FFaithTTV]

@@Thanovic I learned that from one of my friends, keep doing what your doing, can’t wait to see how good you get in the next few months!

[@kennethvanegmond]

This is the answer i have been searching the entire internet for, watched countless vids and never found the answer, untill now FINALLY. Thank you!

[@biggaboydraws5483]

This is the best air roll tutorial video I've seen so far! Thanks!😊

[@nathanpaul4571]

Yo bro these vids are class. I recently made the move from kbm to controller and I've been struggling to get most mechanics down. Hopped onto the training pack and now im hitting shots i never hit on kbm. Thanovic the goat fr ❤

[@Shleepy_One]

Man thank you for this, I just started playing rocket league 2 months ago and struggle with hitting the ball in the air . This helped a lot.

[@pitched7401]

Awesome tutorial, just what I needed! I'm a KBM player and recently switched controls, so I airroll with mouse buttons, bringing my skill from c2 to d2. Even with alot of practise, I just couldn't hit balls very well in the air, as I used to. The video made me realize, that flying backwards makes me struggle alot in the moment. So that's what i'll practise. Thanks!

[@Jxxhy]

Just saw this vid. Helped out a ton. Thx man😊

[@HKMaster06]

One of the things that alotta people wanna improve Great timing especially

[@djbroadway9404]

Huh I was just looking for a vid on this. Perfect timing Thanovic!

[@aryamanagrawal7633]

Actually a really helpful video everyone usually just says do rings and i am on console the way you explained all the steps and mehtods to improve were perfect and looks good for practice. Thanks really appreciate the content.

[@Kazner0h]

I always talk about how learning to drive backwards makes such a difference in the lower ranks but somehow I never applied this to FLYING backwards too... It's been right in front of me this whole time! Thanks for the in depth video.

[@Twe4ke]

Definitely one of the better tutorials out there for sure. Thank you!

[@infamousaddict212]

This is hilarious, I was litterally looking up videos on how to train car control and aerials efficiently last night😆😆😆

[@aubreykilgore2945]

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you 🙏

It was annoying when flying backwards around the field but now am getting the hang of it now I see what I was lacking great content.

[@parshucoondoo2963]

Dude because of this video which is amazing 🤩 I got into Grand Champ in 1v1 and 2v2 I thank you a lot for making this video.

[@LetsPlayCrazy]

Oh man... being a grandchamp that struggles with basic aerials... this video just showed me how bad I truely am... I suck at stuff most golds can do... I wonder if I'd be semi-pro if I could hit aerials... but I really don't have the nerve to train all this stuff xD

[@Corneliusfiddleworth]

HUGE rip that helped me. When ur flying backwards think of it like ur direction stick is controlling the tail end of the car and when ur flying forward ur controlling the nose. Wen from not being able to get a corner backwards to doing 5 laps w o messing up

[@hasaniennis442]

Thanks bro! These exercises should definitely help me peak my aerial control..btw your voice sounds deeper dude

I will just say after about 15 mins of boosting around the field in the air in reverse it made me feel so good in the air. Its like I now have so much more control while going up for aerials! Don't sleep on these simple drills. They are so effective. Time to train DAR now.

[@aryanswiichannel4667]

Yeah exactly the same for me. Crazy all it takes is 15 minutes

[@Ltolli06_]

Figured i should watch this, finally made it to diamond for the first time and want to pick up on some aerials

[@nikodriftpie1789]

another thing people forget is that you can do figure 8's around the pillars map in freeply its the best thing since you dont need rings maps technicly the rings maps are just veried angles of the figure 8's

[@ii-twice]

great video. i'm horrible but this def breaks down how and what i need to work on so i can git gud haha

[@Spitts]

I think we currently have an air roll epidemic in RL. People think they have to glue down air roll because they see pros and KZbinrs do it. I see a lot of players in ranked that could be really good but end up playing bad because they are spinning the second they leave the ground. In most cases this serves no purpose and you can almost always get to the ball faster and get a more accurate touch just flying straight to the ball.

[@daddyslilmonster420]

Yes and no Air roll can help with precision spots when air dribbling or taking high aerials and redirects But its the over use of air roll where people get confused They dont know how to control it But you cant blame them for trying to air roll You gotta learn somehow

[@albibarry2999]

that first training pack was the exact same one I used to learn

[@KylianWarrior]

Tysm bro, my friends laughed at me cuz my aerial control sucked at c2 but now i can do a DOUBLE FLIP RESET!! It only took like a couple days or even a week or 2 to do it. Like bro i couldnt have done it without you, ur the goat!

[@JRFG]

What I don’t understand are the small adjustments with the L stick when watching you adjust while air rolling I see you doing full circles with your L stick. I guess I’m stuck on knowing when and how to adjust while air rolling. Because in free play it’s so unnatural

[@Kuj]

What was the pink workshop map? Great video!

[@Matt513131]

6:22 is where I get stuck. I can aerial well enough using air roll only to readjust my car, but never spinning. I can complete most of the giant rings map this way. As soon as I try spinning by holding air roll I lose all control. I have 0 idea how to turn or readjust my car while spinning, and no amount of practice seems to be making this any easier. I hope the in depth guide covers the basics of how to actually handle the movement of your car while spinning, because for the life of me I cannot find a guide anywhere that actually covers this, it just seems to be assumed that it comes naturally enough to everyone.

[@Superlowry]

Same for me, I can fly without spinning, i can hit every ball, even readjust the position with normal flying.. but as soon as I start spinning in the air, the car just loses control 😂

[@Matt513131]

@@Superlowry I've actually made a lot of progress on this in the last few weeks, largely due to the video Grifflicious made on the topic. You should check it out!

[@cameron3044]

when i look at the controller overlay i’m like bro what. but the vid is fire and i got it

[@Recoil100]

Is it better to air roll when you hit the ball on the ground by double jumping and moving your left analog stick left or right or using the air roll button, left or right or just normal

[@cameronhill6319]

How often should we do this and for how long like wouldn’t it take a month or so to fully get it down! Cheers for your great content

[@markfletcher2134]

Did you end up sticking with using triggers for AR L and/or AR R. Do you use a single directional AR? Do you still use an AR nondirectional

[@defnotevr1268]

goat

[@tonytiger543]

How could I arrange the controls if I want to push into champ but I can’t get over changing boost to r1? I have had game since launch and sit around diamond 2. I have always played with air roll left /right on l1/r1. I have never used free air roll in game rly ever. I can hit ceiling shots, wall shots and such, but have never had that freestyle movement. Everything else is default (circle boost,) I recent rebinded power slide to r1 and like the change. After I watched a couple vids to see what the best controls are I moved my air roll right to L2 per zen video, and it’s fine but makes the half flip more complicated. The main air roll directional on square would be fine, but not using boost on circle and on r1 Is a way crazy change than the power slide one. Should I just fight trough?

[@luigitdr2451]

I hate to break it to you thano- but important is missing a T T_T. fantastic video though per usual. I'm a mid c3 just missing that little spark necessary for GC consistency. Thanks for the help!

[@H2E47]

I used to air roll around the boost pads in the middle like a zig zag

[@No-yx6fu]

Can you show us how you hold your controller with your bindings please?

Idk if it’s totally fine but I boost with L1 and aerial with x and o and also have my r1 as my drift and aerial
