Guest Report post Posted April 25, 2002 Yeah you know what a kip up is I assume. Well after seeing wrestlers perform it and also how the tough enough dudes were told to attempt one. So I tried to attempt a kip up. Well I failed. I'm not a out of shape person. Heck I can run pretty fast an jump pretty high for a half Filipino/white guy. When I did it I kicked my legs out but when it came to boosting myself up boom I'm on my back like John Madden would say. I assume I need to build up the tricep muscles to perform a kip up. If you're wondering why in the hell I wanted to do one. Well I'm bored an it would be pretty neat to perform a kip up after having hot sex with my real doll err girlfriend yeah yeah. After I achieve one I will join up with the Electric Boogaloo Crew an Break Dance my Way Across America. Making money on the way So I can save the recreation center of course. Kip Up or Bust here i come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Big McLargeHuge Report post Posted April 25, 2002 I can or could at one point. I never knew I could until I was play wrestling and did an arm wrench-reversal spot (like in No Mercy). You can usually pull it off if you have someone helping to pull you up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Choken One Report post Posted April 25, 2002 When I played football, I often did Kip ups after a pile up. But it's been about five Years since...I've gotten more muscle and less flexibility...so I doubt I can anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Great Wesuke Report post Posted April 25, 2002 Yes I can. I'm not even in the best shape of my life and I can still pull one off. I guess it is alot to do with flexibility, but even more to do with inertia. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Some Guy Report post Posted April 26, 2002 Yes, I can kip up and I can also do a fromt handspring, like teh ones to reverse out of an armwringer. I not a gymnist or muscular btu I can do those, I can also dunk a basketball, I'm 6'2". That's enough bragging about my meager athletic ability for now.

Guest Redhawk Report post Posted April 28, 2002 Kip-ups are hard as hell, and I thought it was bullshit that they acted like the Tough Enough people who couldn't do them weren't athletes. And besides that, who in the WWF besides The Rock ever does a kip-up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest RetroRob215 Report post Posted May 2, 2002 It's hit or miss for me. Sometimes I can, sometimes I can't. My back has been messed up for a few months, so I probably couldn't do one right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JHawk Report post Posted May 2, 2002 I used to try. Never quite made it. Probably could if I dedicated a week or so to it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Eric the Eagle Report post Posted May 2, 2002 I could, four or five years ago. Even have it on tape. Guess I could re-learn it, if I really wanted to. The assisted one (as used to counter a wristlock that's got you on your back) is a *lot* easier (used one for the first time in a chain wrestling sequence on wrestling school Saturday..).
