dont hear enough about precisions, and it kinda seems like a neglected skill, especially for beginners. but if you watch enough vids, and see the crazy precisions that people do, you will see the amount of skill and practice it takes, and how useful they can be. it definitely requires control over your movements.

any comments or suggestions on precision jumps? any great examples of vids with awesome precisions?


for me, one thing is to remember that you want pretty much no momentum when landing a precision (in general). so its not about just jumping to the spot, then trying to balance and stick there, waving your arms around. you are really only jumping partway, then coming down and sticking. if that makes sense.

for me precisions (on railings anyways) were somethign i just had to go for, cause there was alot of fear on slipping missing the bar, etc. but once i did it i reaized that if you dont make it well you can step down or jump off, however you land there is a pretty easy way to stop yourself from getting hurt, unless you are liek 50 feet above the ground and then why the hell are you doing precisions there anyways haha. once you do it a couple of time you can really feel it out and figure out what works for you

NoSole LOVES Percisions, that's why the Monthly Jam is so exciting for him.
Capuchino has tons of percisions.

yeah ever since my friend told me that it wasnt scary to do precisions on ledges and i did it ive been obsessed with them

i cant do it on rails yet but they are still my favorite things to do when i go work out
