DAMN.
I really loved that replay. Gotta save favorite part was the punch and the end when you jumped up and kicked the torso. Impressive.

Nice one Muur

Very nice start, although I would've loved if you had made the manipulation a bit longer. There was nothing technically wrong with what you did, but stylistically I think it would've made a better replay. Maybe you could've contracted your glutes and did a sort of sweep with your right leg after the first hit, or maybe a backhand to the legs with your right. Both of those could've extended the manip and looked really nice. The core punch was great though, very powerful. Honestly, I think the replay would've been better if you had just grabbed uke after that first punch and made a combo/madman sort of deal out of this replay, because the waiting around for the abs to come down is sort of tedious, and I think it detracts from the replay. The jump is nice, but I feel like you could've made the kick flashier in some way. Your kicking leg's hip was contracted well before the actual kick, making the kick a lot weaker. I think it would've worked better if you had used the other leg somehow. Also, the abs looked like they almost slowed down after your kick, which is the opposite of what you want. It makes the kick look weak, like you just redirected the abs instead of propelling them towards uke. Also, if you had gotten more power on the kick, you probably could've decaped uke which I'm guessing is what you were originally trying to do and then gave up on. That's probably the worst error of the replay: it looks like you didn't do what you tried to.

Overall, it's not a bad replay, but there were a couple stylistic errors that seriously detracted from it. You obviously know how to move your tori well, now you just need to move it with more creativity and with more brains. You'll be a great replay maker if you can just put some ideas to work.

Yes indeed, very good replay.
My haxing skills are no match for your ub3r skills D:
Favorite part was the torso kick
Pretty sexy.
Start was cool, but like Larfen said, it had a lot of potential.
You could've aimed the second kick slightly higher up on uke's arm, giving you more lift and that could've enabled you to make a down-right sexy manip.
Torso slap was pretty nice.

Great power in that core, and I actually liked seeing how far up the gib flies, especially the way it's spinning. I agree with Larfen that the kick looks underwhelming, though. The flailing in the air afterwards is really sketchy as well. I think you'd do better just to do away with manipulating the abs at all, unless maybe if you wait for it to come down and do something with it then. You can always hax in more frames.
I refuse to grab.

Like CnC? Most people do. Be a dear and spread the love!
I don't do long manip, because my skills are...subpar to say the least.

I did refine the replay a bit, I think.

Knocked out the kick, because there was no safe haven from the long hiatus.

Enjoy. (Got Lazy, but I feel like moving on to a new replay.)
