Balisong Tricks - (Chaplin) - Intermediate #8 

Loving how you spiced it up with the plant

Anyone else notice that while trying it faster it takes of like a helicopter and is no longer controllable?

I know this is 3 years old but... you are actually such a good teacher its insane

I need to practice this on my bed or my knife is gonna end up in my monitor.

You are such a good teacher!! I was holding my phone with the video playing on my left hand and practicing the trick with my right hand, and while going slowly I started to speed up not even watching the knife and when I looked over to my right hand I was suddenly doing the trick perfectly! Even though your tutorials are old, they're still the best balisong tutorials out there.

Accidentally uses the wrong handle........ fingerape

MY FRIEND YOU ARE A WIZARD LEVEL TEACHER! I KNOW THIS IS IN ALL CAPS BUT YOU DESERVE THE PRAISE. I spent so many years trying to figure out this trick. Thanks!

7:22 That's called gravity

I love these tutorials, they're so detailed, and once you've gone through the instructions you can go to the slow mo to see how it's supposed to look like and keep practising, I love this trick because it combos well with the double rollover, I really want to learn the hellish but I'm not good enough :(

The joy after making atleast 2 spin is 💯% pure✨

These thumbnails are wild 😂

Brotha... I am very new at flipping, and I had watched several videos on how to Chaplin and none of them explained it as well as you did. After about 15 mins using your method I was doing 5-6 rotations! Thank you!

Any other tutorial failed for me but you learned me chaplin perfectly. Thanks I've wanted to be able to do this from the very begining.

While I suck at trying chaplins wanted to thank you for your tutorials, you're a very talented teacher, thanks a lot for making these.

0:21 You can do Drop Chaplin

"this is gonna be the hardest move to teach".. *first 3 min* yay i can do it endlessly now!! on to the next vid!! xd

Dammit it just keeps flying off my finger :\

where u buy socks?

I found out this trick from compilations and taught myself but you cleared of some stuff that I didn't do so thank you

I got so happy when I finally managed to do it consistently lmao! Thank you :)

I got the trick down in 45 min after watching your tutorial. Thank you very much! It's like when you get the hang of the rotation part. You can just keep going forever!

3:18 i completely missed this part. It was difficult at first but now that ive done it i can do multipule tricks with it

I just practiced for about 10 mins,I spent the first 5 just balancing and going around over and over really slow, that got me the feel and timing and I can do 2 rotations now easy!!!Thank you for the advice!!!!People if you listen to this man you will get it,do exactly as he does and u will get it!!!!I just got my first Bali 3 weeks ago,a new Bradley Kimura,it's not bad for a hundred bucks!! Edit:Oh man the Bradley Kimura Is a Paper weight!!!

I accidentally had learned this when messing around with the knife while watching a Chaplin documentary

I’m new to your page and I’m doing it with a trainer while my real one is in the mail but I literally got to 7 spins half way through your video (not vertically) 🔥 already teaching better than any other channel I’ve came across

Something that helped me be able to finally keep a chaplin going past the first rotation was understanding that the if you want it to keep spinning you'll need to angle your hand for your spin to be much more horizontal. The starting position for the chaplin is vertical, you can't keep doing a horizontal chaplin while returning it to that position without doing it very slowly, once I got that, I gained another 2-3 rotations within 2 minutes of practice.

ive watched so many chaplin tutorials cause i just couldnt get the trick and this tutorial just explains it way better than anyone else managed too... bravo

very helpful, learned in about 20-30mins. Thank you so much!

Really appreciated I learned it fast day one of flipping I learned the zen roll over day two half orbit day 3 chaplin

love all your vids. you are teaching me to use my knifes properly! they're is one or two that have lost me. but I can follow your vids better that any other ones I've seen. looking forward to watching all of them as I progress

this guy is literally the best balisong teacher on yt. ive learned everything but the quickdraw from this guy. (learnt the quickdraw from my dad) 10/10 tutorials

It was a great tutorial. I understood the motion but need how to practice into full speed. This sped up my learning tremendously. Thanks

I've been playing around with trying to get this trick down for near a year now with very little success. I thought it was because my Morpho 51 was to light, but the techniques that you demonstrated in the video helped a lot!

I bought a 51 almost a year ago but didn't get much into flipping because I was into guns too. Thank you for your videos they are great!

the "Not using wrist, use your elbow" part really helped. Thanks!

Took me 2 minutes to be able to spin it twice. Thanks man! You're great at breaking down and explaining technique.

Definitely the best chaplain tutorial I've seen out there. Took me a few minutes to get the basics of the move down after watching that

PLEASE can you make a tut twice a week? i can wait for new tricks and your tuts are so ez to learn

*Watches like 40 seconds of the video* "Seems easy enough!" *Five minutes later* "GHAAAAAA MY LEG"

it helped learning this by exaggerating the finger movements a bit more, just spinning it around with the knife helped a lot

I find vertical Y2/3ks and Chaplins easier than horizonal, word of advice for anyone who can't get horizontal, try vertical. : )

Great tutorial! I like how there are steps of learning not just "uhh u spin it on ur finger and it's basically all instinct"

You're the best flippin teacher on YT man! Thanks.

After learning this I was able to do a helix but on the second rollover you Chaplin for a bit and carry on the helix. Thanks for the good tutorial

Your way of describing the chaplin helped me learn this really quick, thanks!

I’ve been practicing it for 4 hours and I almost got it. Thx for the tutorial my guy❤️

You have the best tutorials I’ve found yet. Great job. Love the explanations, the slow-mo segments, and how you break it down in manageable chunks. Thank you!

ive tried so many turtorials on this move and nréver got it, then i watched yours and got to two rotations! your awesome at explaining and teaching dude!

From 0 rotations to 4 in 5 minutes, this video was extremely helpful, thanks!

Wow! You probably won’t see this but I literally watched this video once and instantly can now do around 10-15 spins consistently!

he was so right at the beginning it always fell down but after 10 min of spinning slowly it became easier I like him he explains everything very well and for a beginner it is easy to understand

2:49 I started to go fast and once my knife fell off because I was going to fast you said 'just like that'

I dunno wtf your talking about, you taught that PERFECTLY! All these years i never really praticed chaplins because they werent fun and i fucked up, but the step by step process you did made it easy!

Brain: thinks about trying to help all the other viewers Reality: F*** it

Today is the second day of me starting Balisong practice and I can already do chaplins, I think I may be a little advanced hehe

Been trying to nail this forever. Now 3 minutes in to this vid, I am Chaplining like a boss. Big upz!!!

The whole approach to a Chaplin is the G force or outward pull. When you spin a horizontal Chaplin you want you create large loops with your hand and by doing this the force of the knife is being pulled out from your finger so the weight of the balisong is being forced outward from your finger so the hinge of the balisong will pull against your finger and the inertia will sustain the balisong on your finger. By making large loops with your hand you are always forcing the balisongs weight away from your finger and it remains spinning. It’s best to start slow because to much force when starting the Chaplin with cause the handles to release and the Bali will let loose. Also when from initiating the Chaplin try to keep your finger on more of a forty five degree angle not straight up and down or vertical so the bali hangs downward a bit until you gain momentum and the G force builds up. This allows the weight of the Bali to pull down not out at first and will help you to get it going then you can go more horizontal as the G force pulls out.

Had to watch yours after watching Will's, liked this explanation much better and showed me where I was at progress wise. Thanks BF.

I love how this trick is so much easier than it looks. Definitely a move you’ll pick up faster than some others.

I love how this whole video is "just do it" and yet it's really helpful

Thank you @bigflips the Chaplin just "clicked"That's what I call it when it "happens"lol!!This reminds me of skating Alot!!I wouldn't be able to get it,then all of a sudden it just happens and I think to myself"I can't believe I couldn't do this!"And such a satisfied feeling landing new tricks!Also I wanted to thank you for saying to just keep trying and you Will get it!!

I also put a bandaid around the spot where I was trying to do a Chaplin that helped me a lot because it let me know where I should keep it and it stopped the pain.

In the end, I got a cracked phone screen, a cut around my finger, and of course learning this trick. Thanks!

That slow-mo-build-up at 7:00 worked instantly :D Thanks!

Just a little tip that worked for me, try alternating between the two methods frequently, start by doing one, then two, then three and if you start getting frustrated switch to going from slow to fast, you'll kind of notice you can get a really tight spin if you kind of let your knuckle joint go kinda limp

I learnt this in 10 minutes, you explained this super well and it was super helpful :)

Your flipping tutorials are the best man and do you have any recommendations on a balisong that's not over like $100 but is still pretty good

could absolutely not figure out this trick no matter what, this video really helped me start a few rotations!!

Just learnt this in 15 mins! A tip for anyone who can’t keep it going and flies off your finger try doing more exaggerated circles with your hand

He said it would be hard.. I literally picked up my bali after watching 5 minutes and did it for about 30 seconds till I got tired, the elbow tip is really the key

Hey dude! Thanks so much. I watched so many videos on the Chaplin, and just couldn’t get it. Your video helped me a lot. Just earned a like n sub 😃

You did an amazing job at teaching and it really helped me, I’ve come to your channel for every trick I know and I can say that you’re a great teacher. Thank you❤️

Finally! A person that explains the tricks perferctly!!!

Ur instructions were so clear I learned this in five minutes and did 10 in a row thank youuuu this trick is so cool🔥🔥

Thank you for this tutorial it really helped me keep up the great work 👍

OMG dude. You're like a sorcerer. The way you teach is amazing. Thank you.

Красавец, поначалу думал, что тут какая- то магия, но шаг за шагом повторяю твои действия и у меня получилось, респект! Теперь у тебя есть русский подписчик =)

by the end of the video i was able to get it to go comfortably around and a decent speed. You did a great job explaining how to do it. Thank you very much!!

This really helped thank fuck for this tutorial. All the other ones didn’t help at all but you explained it really well

7:22 I like how you just say force, because its basically the gravity and just force sounds really funny to me idk why. But want to mention too that all your balisong tutorials are fcking great and I learned many nice tricks with them. Thanks for that!

For the vertical chapin. All you have to do is pull back a little so it keeps around your finger

Your channel is the best trick teaching channel on RU-vid tbh

How to I get it to stop slipping down my finger and hitting my knuckles, I have everything else down but it slides down to my knuckles really fast after two rotations

YOUR EXPLAIN IS THE BEST!!! I was doing it at the same time as you!! ❤️

every time i try to learn a new trick on this channel, i see the slow-mo and BOOM i execute the entire trick perfectly first try, and then i have to actually learn the trick cuz after that first freebie i literally cant do it again.

Bro i have never been so able to learn tricks from anywhere else your amazing at explaining stuff

Thank you so much for this very detailed and simple tutorial. Because of this, I've managed to finally do it and I'm so happy. I'm basically addicted to doing it now. Thank you

Now this, this is an interesting trick. I'm going to do this. Edit: got the first spin down

I figured it out I'm so happy

I’ve learned so many flip tricks just from this guy❤

Amazing way this effectively single-move trick is broken down. Thanks!

Big question! How do you do the same move with your thumb, is it the same way?

0:21 the only time big flips has messed up on camera

As i was learning this I found that you can be more successful but not forcing it down when it is facing towards your elbow. What I'm trying to say is to make sure to do a full spin while practicing from scratch then I'll slowly kinda get the hang of it and go 'ah!'.

My dead ass has been trying it vertical thinking that was the basic.got it now thanks mate!

thanks big flips this is where all i learned my tricks and now im at intermidiate thanks to you

Actually helped a ton, solid tutorial. got in a few hours just walking around my house and watching Tv

I pretty much just did one, then kept trying to beat my "high score" and do 1-2 more until I could do it. It only took like 5 minutes, thanks!

I love the addition of the plant
