5.0 out of 5 stars SEEN IT, AND STILL CAN'T BELIEVE IT!, June 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Videocoach Vogelsinger's Kicking (Soccer Series) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This has to be the best tape of the series. Kicking the ball properly, as this tape shows, makes you feel like your foot is an extension of your mind. By far the best coach to teach visualization skills. If you want to learn from a Master, Hubert Vogelsinger will teach you what pure skill is all about. Take it from me folks, this is a must have tape.

Amazon, thanks for delivering it to my doorstep!

Excellent graduated series of demos and drills for teaching the proper way to kick the ball with the instep and inside and outside of the foot, for beginners through advanced players. As a coach, I've sucessfully used these techniques to teach kids to kick correctly and to unlearn bad habits.

Even if this were the only video of soccer moves I'd say avoid it. Fortunately, there are better tapes so I'd pass on this whole series unless you can get it at the library and even then prepare to use the fast fwd button a LOT. This has to be the weakest tape of the 6 tape series since there is no motivation or logic given behind anything shown - just 'do this..like this.." and there are few if any close-ups of the foot in motion.

Here's a simple hint for anyone whose kicks are too low, bouncing along the grass and losing momentum. If your supporting foot is slightly behind the ball, the kicking foot will catch the ball on the upward part of its arc and give a little loft to the ball. I have never seen this explained in any video tape - someone at work pointed it out to me. All the boys on my U-10 team can now kick nice shots and understand this simple logic.
