You're the only man in the world
that can teach me the triple.

:08:08
The triple? Are you crazy?
Don't you know why I'm a rigger?

:08:12
I throw a double somersault.
I need a little help on the third.

:08:15
- Just a little help on the third, huh?
- I know it's not easy...

:08:19
You come out of that third somersault like
an express train. And you come out blind.

:08:23
A split second to reach for your catcher,
and a split second for him to grab you.

:08:29
- That's all there is to it.
- All I want...

:08:31
How many wet-eared kids have
come to me tryin' to suck me back in?

:08:35
But you top 'em all. You wanna do a triple.
:08:37
All I ask is one look. If you don't think
I got it, I'll go back to Brooklyn.

:08:41
Well, start packin'.
:09:11
How am I doing?
:09:14
How about this?
:09:16
You tryin' to leave your fingerprints
on the bar? Grip it lightly.

:09:20
Get your hands closer together.
They're too far apart.

:09:25
Closer still. Shoulder width.
:09:28
When you do a roll over the bar that way,
shoot way up in the air.

:09:34
You know, I modeled
my style after yours.

:09:37
Then you'll always be a second-rater.
Make your own style.

:09:41
You don't force out high enough.
:09:43
You'll never reach your catcher unless
you kick for the ceiling. Watch my swing.

:09:52
There. This is where your catcher
would be for any big trick.

:09:56
Here I come. Catch me!
