Hi, I´ve been for some weeks recording myself cause i knew i had some issues which made me slow down. I have sorted them out except this wooden leg (right leg) which i dont know how to get rid of. Any tips are very appreciated. Thanks.
I edited the video, slow motion, and pointed out the issue from different angles (480p for better quality): www.youtube.com/watch
OMG I can hardly believe someone else does this funny foot thing too.
My suspicion is that this results from a problem with your breathing.
Your "classic front view" video clearly shows that your head moves out of line with your spine every time you breathe. My guess is that your foot then splays out to maintain balance as suggested by Beards247. I've seen video of me doing exactly the same thing. Here is a suggestion: When you breathe, think about keeping a point at the very top of your skull down, but lifting your chin. Check at about 2:50, 3:22 and 5:13 in this video of KPN: www.youtube.com/watch
Here is a great short video of Thorpe's breathing: www.youtube.com/watch
Note how the tope of the skull is just about motionless but the chin/face turns to the side.
