What's going on guys? I'm Tom Conman Connors, pro streetball player, multiple Guinness World Record
holder, 17 world records. I'm counting. Just got my 17 to the door. I'm so excited. Anyway,
the last tutorial right here on my garden drills was the arm curl, okay? So we learned how to
extend the wrist coming around and that move, okay? Freestyle move. Now we're going to be doing
it on the left hand and we're going to go inside out, okay? So we're going to do the arm curl
inside out, okay? So if you don't know how to do the arm curl, okay, then please go back,
watch the other tutorial and then you can do this one, okay? So this is an extension of that move.
We're going to be doing loads of extensions of moves that we're doing out here in the garden,
handles and combos to get your game really, really on point, okay? I'm going to be busting a couple
of freestyle moves like this along the way just to try and add variety for everybody on my channel,
okay? So let's go. This time around, we're looking to do the arm curl from downwards
up to the top, okay? It's exactly the same as the other tutorial about this movement right here,
about extending the arm upside down so your finger's still straight and the basketball
is still spinning. Perfect, okay? Then you can do this move. You really can do this move, okay? So
we're going to put the basketball now spinning in your left hand, but rather than extend it out like
the other tutorial, okay, is we're going to be starting down here and we're going to go inside
out, okay? So let's get the basketball spinning. The first bit you need to do is you need to use
your body and your arm, okay? So the first bit you need to try and learn is to put the basketball
down and use your arm. See my elbows down like this? That's the first step right here,
okay? Then once the ball is spinning here, you just need to turn your arm,
okay? See that? So the basketball's spinning here, but now we're going to move it here,
okay? So let me just move away so you can try and see that a bit better,
okay? So it's here. You're looking at holding it here, okay? So basketball is spinning, arm,
okay? So we're looking at this now. I'm trying to put it into a position that you can all see.
It's here. Now we're looking at going underneath the arm, spinning the basketball underneath here.
Don't worry if you have to crouch and do stuff, whatever you need to do to pull off the move.
Don't worry about how it looks. Just try and get the techniques. Well, everything's always
about technique, okay? So basketball, spinning your left hand, arm down, underneath, okay?
Now the next part of this trick is like with the other one. The basketball, your hand is here,
but your finger's still, look, your finger is still up. Perfect. So the ball can spin on it,
okay? Once you're here and you go round, all you're doing is bringing that arm up to extension.
Now, if you watched the first tutorial, you'll see that my arm is extended
and then we're turning our hand over. This time we're going to come round, then extend,
and then bring it back home, okay? So let's do them all in one motion. Here we go.
Basketball spinning, underneath, up, okay? If you look, I actually brought the ball
further up than extended, but you can do it as an extend. When I first started learning,
that's how I did it. So it was out like this, okay? But you'll find as you do it,
you might start bringing it in much quicker here and out this side, okay? But trust me,
it's easier to learn when your arm's extended because it's easier for your arm. It feels more
natural for you to do this and learn the trick than just start doing this because you'd be like,
how does the ball spin? Okay, so ball underneath the arm. Look at my arm, okay? Everything is
movement. My body, my legs are involved. Everything is out. Everything is involved,
okay? Okay, so, okay, remember guys, it's just that turning that wrist, okay? It's all about
turning that wrist. Look at where I am right here. This is where I am. Look at my finger.
Straight, right? Almost. So that's what I'm looking for. As soon as you've got that there,
boom. Now you just come out, okay? Like I said, try and extend that arm so it's easier for you
to come back home, okay? Now, once you've got the invert, you've got a lovely combination
that obviously, you know, you can put some freestyle magic to, okay? So it's just out,
round. It's the same thing. Arm curl, out curl, okay? Out from in. So that's it, guys, okay?
This is how you do it. It's the arm curl, and this is the upgraded on the left hand,
which gives it a really nice illusion, okay? So remember, guys, bam, extend the arm,
okay? And bring it back. Bring it back home, okay? Boom. There you go. I hope you enjoyed
it. I hope that you can nail this trick. It took me weeks to do this and learn it. So,
you know, if you guys do it before that, great, but don't be discouraged if you can't do it
straight away, okay? Because hard work pays off. Trust me, I know hard work pays off, okay? So
get practicing. Arm curl. We're going to be doing some streetball moves next. We've got some
trick shots, some handle moves, some streetball moves, as in how to do them and what to do.
And obviously, we'll be bringing back some more freestyle stuff later on in the garden drills.
