HOW TO: Obi-Ani Spin (Lightsaber Tutorial)

This is still too hard for me unless I had someone in person

Great tutorial! I finally figured out the obi ani spin, this is the first obi ani tutorial that helped me understand this skill. ❤

Great tutorial, thank you! It looks like there are more spins than there actually are.

Where can I buy a cool lightsaber like this but under 200 dollars

Im so confused on the back and bringing it back and slashing. I have to make my saber lose velocity and go the other way which really doesnt allow the fluid motion

I was here before this hit 100k views!!!

Tutorial for the skilled

N e r d s

You're a damn legend for this tutorial.

heck ya, so this helped me learn it and I can now do this skill after 1 hour. 10/10

I call it the Ani-Wan spin. I think it sounds better.

Strange story. I found changing the name of the motion from a spin to a whip made it all made so much more sense. Great vid❤

I'm pretty sure I can do it,,, I have trained in the katana and there are moves close to that spin

i was thinking of this exact move like 2 days ago where i made an off comment to a co-worker how cool the obi-ani looked and how i would like to learn it one day when i get my own saber. this video is a blessing and definitely something im going to show around to all my peers who are huge star wars nerds like me.

thank you for this video, it is absolute perfection.

I still can't do it lol.

…Holy Frick I think I already knew how to do this

is that baselit, or neopixel?

Great tutorial...the neopixel sabers are looking so real they can practically replace CGI...who'd thought, as a kid back in 1983 when ROTJ came out, that we'd eventually have realistic looking lightsaber's. Not Fluorescent plastic tubes with hilts or flashlights...Absolutely Amazing.

Oh no. I ordered a 36 inch blade.. and im 5'5. Im assuming this isn't gonna go well.

That is so unbelievably cool! I had never even thought about using a sabre myself, but then YT throws this video to me, and WOW! I had no idea what saber grips were, and can even spin with relative ease/control! That would make a SUPER awesome Halloween costume part, knowing how to do that!

How long did it take you to get the hang of it and make it look THAT simple and easy?

I practiced this with one of my swords (they are all extremely sharp).

I already am an expert with swords, so I wasn’t worried about getting cut, but I should have considered that I might hit something behind me.

I ended up hitting the 3 & 1/2 inch thick maple (wood) table behind me with my tungsten carbide broadsword and slicing clean through it.

After that, I decided to do what I should’ve done from the start; do it outside.😂

._., I honestly learned these very easily without this video

Я так внимательно смотрел, будто прям щас взял бы какую нибудь палку и начал тренироваться.

Yeah, I won’t lie I have broken a light or 3

Anakin during the Obi-wan Anakin duel on Mustafar probably: I'll try spinning, that's a good trick

Thank you :)

I am not a Jedi but I am a martial artist and self taught swordsman. I appreciate these videos as they still teach me new applicatple techniques to my own style. Thank you.

I realize this is only choreographed sword movement but the Obi-Ani spin you demonstrate is an actual striking and blocking movement in Filipino Kali. This technique is also seen in some Italian forms. To make your technique stronger, DO NOT OPEN your hand when spinning your blade as it makes it easier to be disarmed. Of course starting out will be difficult so you need to practice the movement slowly and speed up as you gain competence. Flexibility, strength and stability can be gained training your wrists at least 2x a week. In Kali or Arnis the torquing spinning technique is used to create speed and power either for a deflecting block/parry or slash and strike.

Watching a video of a tutorial for a fictional universe`s fictional weapon`s fictional martial art just shows you the commitment of SW fans :D

I’m a professional with swords, so this is a great video. Goof job

It looks like Anakin's windmill that he has done since Episode 2 and also in Ashoka.

1st step. Have a lightsaber

I’ve already failed😭

Do you think Atlas v3 from Imperial Workshop is a great choise for first lightsaber?

Man, that was a great video! I've got to learn that. This is the way!

If I had a little brother I would probably do it on purpose depending on what he did.

Anybody else bought from neosabers?

Not even a big Star Wars fan but playing with these at night seems like it would be really fun

Awesome!! Thank you for the tutorial.
Also how much is the % using your code.

Thanks for this video tutorial. I just ordered a saber so my son and I can have fun together. He's 5 and just now getting into Star Wars and his absolute favorite duel is between Obi and Ani. He watches the video at least once a day so if I can learn some of these tips and tricks to teach him, safely, it would be amazing. Thank you again for all you do and keep doing what you do.

i really liked your tutorial, helped me a lot

I think a better name for the spin would be the Hayden spin since he's the first that brought it on screen. He actually learned the spin because he saw (probably a stunt guy) doing it. He thought it looked cool.

Bro I have watched all these tutorials and they haven't helped at all. Like I've got the basics down but they didn't help! You have no idea how long I have been waiting for you to post a tutorial. I know I'm a bit late viewing this video but this video has helped me so much!! Thank you Tuhqa! Keep up the work 💪

Why does it actually look like a real lightsaber?

Thanks so much for the syep-by-step!

Thanks can’t wait for the next video😊

Hey tuhqa I have a question for you, the person with the most lightsabers in the world, here it is: Is RGB sabers are good ?

how did you aford all of those lightsabers

Your lightsabers sucks 😂 please leave the lightsaber business to Hollywood, where it belongs.

Dude! you're sick man ⚡︎Much thanks!
