Great tutorial. For knuckles you really want to flex your foot make sure its a locked ankle and then it's 50% contact point and 50% follow through. Really look at his technique and try to break it down and replicate it.
I've saw a lot of knuckle ball tutorials and been practicing for months and had no results. Then I watched this tutorial and knuckled on my first try. Thanks!
Very nice tutorial!.. I have a little 14 year old brother whose been scoring freekicks like crazy in his team by doing the Knuckle dip kick... Just remember guy's to bend your body to prevent the ball from going high... THumbs up for this vid!
Yoo look! i Watched more then 200 videos of how to learn a knuckle ball .. and today i FINALLY GOT ONE! Thanks kid. I been trying this for the past 3 months of practicing knuckle ball and today i gotta GOOD toturial one! thank you! Have a good one.
i just want to say that your technique is fantastic. I've recently turned semi-pro and i wanna say your video helped a lot. Keep it up, you deserve to make a lotta money from your talent
great video, for many people its just a matter of doing it a few times and then they know it for life, im a right back and i was the same to execute a long ball without slicing it like many players do. uve obviously learnt it and can execute it well, fantastic stuff
I believe, this video is THE BEST at showing me the technique of how to kick a knuckle ball. Im 17, and i thank you nickabeast95 for showing/teaching me how to kick a knuckle ball. I now am playing a better game of soccer. Thank You :)
I tried this thing for 3 hours yesterday with my new Mercurial vapor vii fg shoes. WOOOOW! When I got it perfect it was so stunning! I was like "noooo!" when I thought it went over, then all of a sudden it got this nasty curl into the cross! :o :D Thx dude!
You dont want to much downward motion or too much upward. So the axis of motion co-agulates with the ball for maximum speed, keep your foot flat (kicking foot) Hit ball with the Middle Part of your foot. The ball will curve if your kicking foot is even the slightest angled. For dipping. You want more upward motion so it spins forward thus bringing the ball down. For a floating ball you want for downward central. This way it goes dead straight and then goes offset. ( keep foot flat for a 3 kick
damn kid your knuckles are good. ive been practicing this shot for a few months and i cant seem to get it down here and there ill get it down but thanks for the video maybe ill observe it more and learn this complicated shot.
very nice tutorial kid! maybe confuzing 4 someone who hasnt practised before but generally very nice.id like to mention 2 things: 1) most tutorials dont mention that the supporting foot must be a little lower,but u did thumbs up. 2) i like to add that although technique is the most important thing about a knuckleball, a ball will never knuckle unless it has a speed of 30-40 mph,and a more powerful shot will make the ball knuckle ball( thats just physics). sorry 4 my bad english.
i already had this a bit down but not perfect, thanks for the recap this technique does get frustrating since it has to be almost perfect to get an okay knuckle
when you Knuckle the ball you line up on were you're going to place the ball.... since he lines up going down the middle hence the knuckle balls reputation it'll go middle... and the spin you get is from the ball traveling toward goal the air goes into the seems and makes it start to wobble. making it hard for keepers to predict were the balls will go. (you have to have had a lot of practice with it to make it do that though)
Nice tutorials. In between your explanations throw in a demonstration rather than wait until your done explaining the whole thing. I find it more affective. Other than that, I've watched them a few times. Good work
@TheCRSuper7 the technique to getting topspin is kinda similiar to knuckling but wat u wanna do is kick the lower part of the ball but not getting underneath it and just kicking it in an upward motion
Good work. I`m pretty impressed by your skill here but note this: if you use this kind of shot in match situation, doesn`t matter if it is a free kick or just a normal shot out of gameplay be sure to use more power. The shot has to be much faster. I think these are some good tips for you in the future :) anyways that was a good tutorial.
To make the ball go high in the air you have to strike the ball at the very bottom part of your soccer ball and as your kicking the ball pick your foot up as high as you can. The higher you rise your foot the higher the ball will go. Hope I wasnt confusing :(
@AceFreak72 Its very different, cause knuckle shoots generally dont curve at all. in outside foot curve you use more power then in knuckle shoots. In knuckle shoots ball is supposed to go so straight w/ dip, and powerful. I mean in outside curve shoot if you have a shoot power thats all you need, but in knuckle shoots you have to have shoot technique to know how and where to shoot the ball
if you can still see the knuckling/dipping effect, try speeding up your run up. if that doesnt help then you maybe the connection point on your foot to the ball is too low, try make it abit higher with the same technique from this video
@deryl328 instead of using power, chip it about 1/4 of the way under the ball, that should put height on it. Try Clip it too with powwer and practice makes perfect! :)
Great tutorial.

This kid is going to make a great coach someday. Definitely already appears to be a knowledgeable player.
Free kickers tutorial are nothing compared to this on. Thanks bro helped ALOT
Freekickerz one is rubbish
Your video made me learn to do my knuckballs on the first try from previous kunckball tutorials
Word
Your tutorials are great, considering your age back then, they're amazing! Kinda make me regret I didn't play football when I was younger.
I've saw a lot of knuckle ball tutorials and been practicing for months and had no results. Then I watched this tutorial and knuckled on my first try. Thanks!
Thank you kid you are awesome. I been playing soccer for 10 years and still learn from you .
Wow i learned better than freekickerz thanks man
This was the most helpful knuckling tutorial I've watched. Nice job.
finally a tutorial on this shot that best explains the technique behind it. i was able nail this technique immediately after watching this. thanks m8.
might not seem it at first, but this is actually the best explanation i think I've seen. You cover pretty much everything you need to know
Man this video brought so many memories
Very nice tutorial!.. I have a little 14 year old brother whose been scoring freekicks like crazy in his team by doing the Knuckle dip kick... Just remember guy's to bend your body to prevent the ball from going high... THumbs up for this vid!

Very nice never thought a 14 year old could teach me anything nicely done..
I believe, this video is THE BEST at showing me the technique of how to kick a knuckle ball. Im 17, and i thank you nickabeast95 for showing/teaching me how to kick a knuckle ball. I now am playing a better game of soccer. Thank You :)
That grass looks so soft and comfy. I always loved good grass over turf.
Ive had knuckle balls and dip balls thanks to this guy, funny thing is.
When I try to knuckle and fail I get a dip and vice versa hahaha
Dude i'm going to start coming to your tutorials on shots rather than freekickerz and stuff because your'e so much easier to understand. Good Video!
Finally! Thank so someone who explained it in detail. The learned it after whatching your tutorial
Loved it...I coach U12...these kids take a skill leap at this level with proper training....I will now give to the better technique from your video
I tried this thing for 3 hours yesterday with my new Mercurial vapor vii fg shoes. WOOOOW! When I got it perfect it was so stunning! I was like "noooo!" when I thought it went over, then all of a sudden it got this nasty curl into the cross! :o :D Thx dude!
clearest tutorial i've seen so far. even better than buduiza's tutorial. thumbs up
Dude thanks do much. I was in my soccer game today and I made the ball dip into the upper corner. Great video

Seen hella tutorials, this is one of the best
Can you do a knuckle ball shot when it goes one but then another way? Plz please
Abby_Gamer r u mad
Abby_Gamer That's gonna take like 2 years of practise, maybe a bit less, or more
This one does go another way and another way
damn kid your knuckles are good. ive been practicing this shot for a few months and i cant seem to get it down here and there ill get it down but thanks for the video maybe ill observe it more and learn this complicated shot.
Thank you very much still took me a couple of months to learn it but it significantly benefits in games/practices
Great tutorial, most kids here can't do the knuckle ball the way you do it, don't listen to them.
very nice. haven't been playing football for a long time so i hope this technique will improve my skill. Thanks!
This video help me to learn a knuckle ball more than freekickerz and f2 and any other one ,thank you
thanks bro u teach better than the old people such as freekickerz and 1untd
very nice tutorial kid! maybe confuzing 4 someone who hasnt practised before but generally very nice.id like to mention 2 things:

i already had this a bit down but not perfect, thanks for the recap this technique does get frustrating since it has to be almost perfect to get an okay knuckle
thanks after 3 years a got him THANKS bro its help ALOT
@popham11 you need to hit the ball lower but with that being said you also need to emphasize the fast followthrough going up to the left
this tutorial really helped out other than freekickerz cuz they didnt really put much detail in it👊👊👊
Thanks Nick, really loud and clear, I hope I can achieve such form like you !
Great video dude! Now i will use the technique you have showed in the tutorial,
Nice tutorial! Camera angles are great to get it better!
i watch your video about the curve..its work!! and this knuckle i must keep practicing
Best Knuckleball tutorial clip. Understandable indeed. :-)
when you Knuckle the ball you line up on were you're going to place the ball.... since he lines up going down the middle hence the knuckle balls reputation it'll go middle... and the spin you get is from the ball traveling toward goal the air goes into the seems and makes it start to wobble. making it hard for keepers to predict were the balls will go. (you have to have had a lot of practice with it to make it do that though)
Thanks a lot for this dude! Helped a lot! Keep doing what your doing :)
you were really good i scored one of these last year in the second last minute to win the final
Heaven grass! Also great technique to be follow! Thankyou so much young lad!
thanks,i always watch you tutorials and it all works...please make more videos
Hey you should do a video about corner kicks and defensive clears! Your a great instructor
Nice tutorials. In between your explanations throw in a demonstration rather than wait until your done explaining the whole thing. I find it more affective. Other than that, I've watched them a few times. Good work
@TheCRSuper7 the technique to getting topspin is kinda similiar to knuckling but wat u wanna do is kick the lower part of the ball but not getting underneath it and just kicking it in an upward motion
dude very nice shots
I hit sick knuckle shot from 30 yrds out other day upper left 90
Thank you so much for the information! I can now score more than chasing the ball around my yard😀
hey! i want to see you in the MLS 5 years from now. you got some awesome talent bro!
Good work. I`m pretty impressed by your skill here but note this: if you use this kind of shot in match situation, doesn`t matter if it is a free kick or just a normal shot out of gameplay be sure to use more power. The shot has to be much faster. I think these are some good tips for you in the future :) anyways that was a good tutorial.
Dude this is the best instructional video :D!!

you're a very talented kid. keep it up.
Thanks for the info exactly what I was looking for instruction wise!
Just started practicing this kick today. You helped a lot, thanks dude!
To make the ball go high in the air you have to strike the ball at the very bottom part of your soccer ball and as your kicking the ball pick your foot up as high as you can. The higher you rise your foot the higher the ball will go. Hope I wasnt confusing :(
thnx man !! it really helped i can get a perfect dip now ...
Damn...You're really good...I wish I had HALF your skill! :D
@AceFreak72 Its very different, cause knuckle shoots generally dont curve at all.
in outside foot curve you use more power then in knuckle shoots. In knuckle shoots ball is supposed to go so straight w/ dip, and powerful. I mean in outside curve shoot if you have a shoot power thats all you need, but in knuckle shoots you have to have shoot technique to know how and where to shoot the ball
u explained it very effective way bro

if you can still see the knuckling/dipping effect, try speeding up your run up. if that doesnt help then you maybe the connection point on your foot to the ball is too low, try make it abit higher with the same technique from this video

@deryl328 instead of using power, chip it about 1/4 of the way under the ball, that should put height on it. Try Clip it too with powwer and practice makes perfect! :)
