well i can balance the ball on my foot and then do the atw..but doing it while i juggle is harder for me...also i can only do the atw one way..like i do it with my right foot..and i go around towards the left first..how do i do it the other way?
Sasho
Well, all I can say is that keep juggling until the ball is in good enough position for you to try it, don't really kick the b all when you are doing it, just kind of bring the ball wwhile you are bring up your leg and just give it a bit of a spin.

practice. atw is very basic. you just hit the side of the ball with the side of the foot and go around the ball. trust me, it's that simple.

Just keep trying over and over again soon ull get it then have a go at doing atw one way and on the next connection do it the other way round. trust me gets a few whoaaaaaaaaa's from the spectators biggrin.gif
thorpeyy.
Instead of making a new topic, thought i'd just put my problem in here..

I really can't atw! Even from a foot stall! I can get my foot round and in place before the ball comes back down but either, the ball goes away from Me, or it just ricoshets off either of my foot.

I've tried and tried.. But i really can't do it!

Any helpful tips would be great as it's the one trick i really wanna master! thumbsup.gif

it's very simple. hit it with the side of the foot on the side of the ball, make your foot go around the ball, and touch it again. practice practice practice. it's like a baby when he's about to take his first steps. at first it may seem impossible and he chooses to just crawl but soon enough he finds out how simple walking can be.

You can't do the other side just because your not used to doing it, 2 weeks of practice and you wil do it.
