  Speaker 1: in the description fifteen airbending abilities. Welcome to the Amagi.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: In today's video, we're going over fifteen airbending abilities before
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: we begin. We publish new content every week, so be

  Speaker 1: to get notified about our latest videos. Number one airball.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: An airbender can create a compressed ball of air by
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: moving their hands together in a circular motion. This technique
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: has many applications, such as levitating small objects or trapping opponents.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Ikey demonstrated this technique while playing with flying bison calves,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: giving them something to chase. Airballs can also be used
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: in a more offensive manner. Propelled forward similar to a cannonball,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: they can knock an opponent backward and off balance. Number
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: two air blast a more offensive maneuver involving a direct
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: pulse or jet of compressed air shot from the hands, feet,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: or mouth. The force of this attack is generated more
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: from the bender's own power rather than assisted by momentum.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: The blast can reach further distances with greater accuracy, and
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: is used to inflict greater damage. Ang once use this
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: technique to completely shatter one of the Fire Navy's projectile
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: rocks in midair with a single powerful kick. He was
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: also able to use two air blasts at once to
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: defend against combustion Man's unique fire bending ability. The blasts
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: can also be maintained for prolonged periods in order to
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: push objects back. The airbenders of the New Air Nation
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: demonstrated this by simultaneously attacking Kubera's enormous mechasuit. Number three
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: air bomb, a technique that creates a powerful outward moving
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: air current in all directions around the bender. Usually performed
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: after landing on the ground from above. This airbending form
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: has great concussive force and the ability to completely blow
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: away anything within its radius. Number four air cushion. Airbenders
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: can make a cushion out of air to break anyone's fall,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: including their own. Tens in Us use this to cushion
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: his own fall after an Equalist MEC tank knocked him
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: roughly against the side of a building. Opel made use
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: of this technique to secure the safe landing of three
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: thieves who are flung out of their car by chise
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: attack during their patrol Number five air funnel, similar to
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: an air vortex, but on a smaller scale. Ang inventively
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: use this technique as a cannon by creating a small
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: air funnel through which small coal projectiles could be loaded
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: and fired out the opposite end. Number six air manipulation.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: By using circular evasive movements, airbenders build up a large
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: amount of energy and momentum, which is released through powerful moves.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: It also allows for wind based counter attacks that knock
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: opponents off balance, mimicking the sudden directional shifts of air currents.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Attacks vary from simple gusts of wind to miniature tornadoes
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: and cyclones. Maintaining the circular theme, even a simple movement
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: can create an air gust, and airbenders increase the power
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: of their moves by performing larger sweeps and spins, using
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: the momentum of their movement to produce larger gusts. This
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: is also demonstrated with their use of staffs or fans
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: to increase or create precision within the air currents. Similarly,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: airbenders can also augment the momentum of throwne objects. Number
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: seven air punch or kick, another more offensive move than
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: is typical of airbending. Discipline. Air punches or air kicks
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: are small compressed formations of air that can be fired
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: off of the fists or feet of an airbender. This
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: is similar to many fire bending abilities and the air
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: blast in the sense that involves the firing of compressed
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: or solidified air at an enemy in a disjunct fashion,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: i e. The bender does not create a single great
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: stream of air. This move was seen when ag produced
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: several air punches in rapid succession toward a practice fire
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: lord dummy. Avatar Korra was able to use two pairs
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: of air punches in rapid succession and an air kick
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: to knock him on off his feet. Corey used the
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: air punch technique on the ground, spewing the bent air
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: within a radius. She also used an air kick when
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: fighting the police officers who were tracking down Kai number eight.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Air shield, the most common defensive tactic for an airbender
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: involves circling enemies, suddenly changing direction when attacked, and evading
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: by physical movement rather than bending. However, an airbender can
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: still deflect attacks as needed by throwing up gusts of
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: air close to their bodies as a shield. This is
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: rarely to stop attacks directly and more often to push
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: the attack aside, conserving energy and allowing them to turn
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: the movement into an attack. At the same moment. Kai
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: used an air shield in one seventy one ag to
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: protect himself from police combustion beams. He was able to
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: deflect enough of the blast to prevent it from killing him,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: though the close proximity of the detonation knocked him out.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Number nine air swipe. The air swipe is both a
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: defensive and offensive technique in which an airbender conjures a
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: crescent shaped wave of compressed air capable of deflecting colossal
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: projectiles such as the catapulted flaming rocks often used by
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: the Fire Navy, or redirecting them back to the attacker.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Ang used this technique while battling with a Zulid during
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: the invasion of the Fire Nation. Genora also use this
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: technique to knock back the Lieutenant when he invaded Air
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Temple Island, and Korra use the Avatar state to enhance
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: the power of this technique to take down Unilok's dark spirits.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Number ten air wheel. This is a modified version of
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: the air scooter invented by Tensen. Air is rapidly spun
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: around the airbender and carries the person inside of the
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: wheel of air. It is also able to cut through
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: solid objects. Tenzen us this technique during the battle at
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: the Equalist Factory Number eleven. Breath of wind similar to
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the standard air jet, but created from the mouth and lungs.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: It requires extremely good breath control to employ effectively. Size
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: and focus are easily controlled from narrow jets that can
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: strike targets as small as insects, to large gale force
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: gusts capable of cooling magma in to solidified rock. This
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: has been exhibited by both ag and Roku. By using
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: this technique, the airbender can also magnify the sound waves
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: generated by a whistle or another instrument. Ang demonstrate this
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: technique while he was trying to lead a number of
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: animals to the agrarian zone of Bossing say As. He
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: used airbending to blow his bison whistle, sending massive sound
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: waves throughout the city to call all the animals. His
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: son Tensen later performed a similar feat in an attempt
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: to wake up the new Airbenders for an early morning hike.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Number twelve. Enhancet agility air movements can also be used
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: as levitation aid. Airbenders are able to jump high and
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: far by writing on strong gusts of wind, and can
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: also slow or deflect falls by creating cushions of air.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: The constant movement required by this art makes airbenders naturally
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: flexible and agile, making masters of the art difficult to hit.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Even without the use of bending, they can easily maneuver
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: around an opponent by ducking, jumping, and side stepping, appearing
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: to flow around their opponents without expending any energy at all,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: letting the opponent tire themselves out and thus creating exploitable openings.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: This conservation of energy, combined with high stamina, gives them
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: an advantage in prolonged combat. Taf Beaifong, a blind earthbender
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: who used used her bending to tell where people were
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: walking or running in relation to her, once told Ang
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: that she could easily identify his walk by the fact
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: that he had a light step. Number thirteen. Enhanced speed.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Airbenders enhance their movement in battle. They can run swiftly
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: by decreasing air resistance around them, and even sprint across
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: or run up vertical surfaces by generating a wind current
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: behind themselves to propel them forward. Ang used this to
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: run many times faster than an average human and maintain
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: this for long periods, allowing him to travel long distances
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: without gliding or jumping. When used by a skilled airbender,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: this technique can enable the airbender using it to travel
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: at a speed almost too swift for the naked eye
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: to be able to see properly. A master airbender can
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: use this technique to briefly run across water. Number fourteen
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Heat regulation. Airbenders are able to warm themselves using proper
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: breathing techniques, allowing them to thrive in frigid environments with
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: relative ease. Aang first demonstrated this in the Southern Water tribe,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: maintaining his body heat without the need for a parka
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: or any additional layers of clothing. Number fifteen Suction a
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: technique used to bring people or objects toward the airbender.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: It was used by Aang many times, such as when
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: he took up the fans dropped on the ground to
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: fight Zuko on Kyoshi Island and pulled Professor Ze out
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: of harm's way in Wanshitong's library, as well as by Appa,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: who used this technique to steal cabbages from an animal
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: trainer while his back was turned. Tensen also demonstrated it
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: when he tried to save Saikon from a mecha tank
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: outfitted with a magnet, and although new to the art,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Zahir was also capable of this technique as he used
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: it to bring his staff toward him in his fight
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: with Kaya. Did you enjoy our video, Be sure to
