Soccer Trick: The Scorpion

Two-part trick that requires a neck stall, good balance, and good timing as the ball rolls down your back.

I like this soccer trick because the ending is a bit unusual. Timing the hit with the heels will take some practice, but it’s nothing too advanced. I suspect most people will have a harder time with the neck stall.

With any stall, remember that flicking the ball the right height is KEY. Then, cushioning the ball as it settles is JUST AS IMPORANT. If you don’t do BOTH of these things – the soccer ball will probably bounce off. Keep at it.
