程度の副詞

I've been challenged to do freestyle soccer skills in 25 levels of increasing complexity. ["Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy"] Freestyle soccer is unique in that it really is the art of movement with a ball.

様態の副詞

To me, complexity is increasingly difficult techniques and fluidity of movement.

There truly are an unlimited amount of tricks, but this is my personal interpretation of the challenge.

We're starting with knee juggles because they are the simplest thing for an absolute beginner to learn.

The most common mistake is people actually make contact with their literal knee, but it's actually on the thigh where you wanna hit the ball.

You will drop it from your hands, bring your leg up to contact the ball with about the middle of your thigh.

You wanna start with one juggle at a time, right back to your hands, and then do two, and then alternating right, left, before you start doing multiple knee juggles.

Most people tend to bend over just a little bit, but make sure you're not bringing your chest down to the ball, but you're bringing your knees up.

Feet juggles require a couple of more techniques than just knee juggles.

It's striking the ball right on the knuckle of your big toe, and you'll know if you make proper contact because the ball shouldn't have too much backspin on it.

You want 50% or less of your power when you're juggling.

It's not striking the ball like you would in soccer, but it's also not a hacky sack lift.

It's a light swing as if you were sitting in your chair just like this.

The techniques in order to learn a foot stall and balance a foot stall really come in helpful for later levels when you get into things like head stalls and things like that.

The best way to start is to start with the ball in your hands and literally place it onto your foot.

Sometimes you wanna pull your toe back to help cushion the ball and control it right there between your toes and your shin.

You'll know you have the foot stall down when you can just kind of stand there more relaxed and you don't really ever feel out of control.

Now that we've got foot stalls, knees, and feet juggles, let's move on to level four, flick ups.

Flick ups are the techniques that you use to get the ball from the ground into the air to start a freestyle.

For the most basic flick up, you roll the ball back and you just chip your toe right underneath the ball to pop it in the air a little bit.

When you wanna get a little bit more interesting, you go from the inside, from the outside.

You can even flick it up with your heel, but that becomes a little bit more complicated.

One of my favorite flick ups is called a slap.

You start with the ball in between your ankles.

You roll your right foot behind your left and with your right foot, you roll the ball up your left leg to flick the ball up in the air and start juggling.

Sidebar, freestyle can be broken down into four different categories.

Lowers, any sort of revolutions and tricks you do standing up.

Uppers, which are tricks that you do chest and above.

Sit downs, which are any tricks you do when you're sitting or laying down on the ground.

Blocks are any sorts of catches with the ball, whether it's your knees, ankles, that's a block.

Drop the ball with some backspin, let it bounce and then catch the ball nice and gently between your knees.

So with the ankle catch, you want the ball in between your ankles, right on the bone.

Whereas a foot stall, the ball is staying right on top of your foot.

The key with blocks is everything is gentle.

You don't wanna squeeze the ball too hard.

So even with these five levels, you can already start to build your own freestyle combo.

As simple as a flick up into a couple of juggles.

They're what we call a half a revolution trick.

You can do it off of a juggle or even off foot stalls.

After you flick that ball up, you wanna swing your left foot over the ball and then you hop up to make contact with the ball.

You wanna make sure your body weight is centered still and you're standing mostly upright, if not a little bent over.

You wanna hit about the same place that you do when you're juggling.

So when you juggle, your foot is about parallel to the ground.

When you do crossovers, you wanna pull your toe back just a little bit to keep the ball closer.

We're moving from a 0.5 revolution trick into the hop the world, which is one full revolution.

Hop the world is a little more complicated because you actually incorporate both feet.

You start with your left foot and you end with your right foot.

With crossover, the left foot is there, but it doesn't actually touch the ball at any point.

From here, we can start to build a more interesting combo.

You have a couple of lowers tricks now and we could build with what we call the basics of freestyle.

Around the world is the most famous trick in freestyle soccer.

It is a one revolution lowers trick where you start with, say, your right foot, one revolution around the ball, and then you end with a touch with your right foot.

When you're normally juggling with the ball, you hit just like this, but when you're doing an around the world, you're slicing, which gives it a little bit of spin.

A lot of the times, people will kick the ball and then try to get their foot around.

One, the ball tends to go too high, and then two, in splitting that into two different motions, the kick and then the revolution, you lose time and it's a lot harder to get your foot around in time.

When you do it in one fluid motion, you get the ball with the right height and you have the time to get your foot all the way over.

Touzani is actually the name of the creator of this trick, one of the more notable figures in freestyle.

The Touzani around the world is a 1.5 revolution trick, which is one full revolution and then a half a revolution to finish.

So you strike with the knuckle of your small toe right here, one full revolution around, like an around the world, and then to finish, it's a crossover motion at the end.

The difficulty with this is striking the ball with the outside of your foot is a smaller surface and a lot less room for error than it is with the inside of your foot.

Lemons around the world is the most recognizable two revolution trick.

Imagine your right foot is starting in the air and that's the one that's going to be interacting with the ball.

You're jumping off your left foot and doing the revolutions with your right.

It's the same striking technique as the around the world, but the difference with this one, as you make contact with that ball, you wanna hop up off your other foot to give you a little more height.

You're making contact here, but at the same time, you're jumping and you make that first revolution, complete the second revolution as you come down, and then you finish the trick.

Advanced blocks, you can take the basic blocks and then you start to spice it up a little bit.

So rather than knee catch straight down to an ankle catch, you would go from a knee catch into a crossed ankle catch, or you could do things like a thigh grab and then pop the ball back up to start juggling.

Advanced blocks could come in in a routine, say after a basic block like a knee catch.

You go knee to like X ankle catch, a slap flick up.

It is the spice of the routine rather than just the building blocks.

Clipper is one of the more famous tricks in freestyle.

It is a stall the same way that you do a foot stall, but with clipper, it's on the inside of your foot while your right leg is wrapped behind your left leg.

The biggest difficulty when it comes to clipper is your foot positioning, because you have to flex your ankle so that it sits parallel to the ground with the inside of your foot face up, which is actually not a natural position for anybody's foot to do.

So a lot of people have to stretch their foot in order to get it to reach that position.

Now that we've started to incorporate a little bit of spice into our routine, we can get a little more interesting.

Now we're gonna move to the floor and we're gonna do level 13 sit downs.

Sit down crossovers are one of the simplest tricks that you can learn sitting down.

You wanna be sitting upright, hands on the floor behind you, cross your left leg over the top and make contact with your right foot.

When it comes to sit downs, the biggest difference is in the foot positioning.

Lock your ankle still, but rather than parallel to the floor, it's a little bit more pointed and you wanna make contact with the same part of your foot.
