The running and fluidity was really cool. The effects weren't so awesome. Because the fade out seemed very pointless to fade out like that, and lazy.

EFFECTS LESSON 1: _

Smoke fade out should be slow and meaningful. Not like white balls in the center slowly starting to get larger. That is a lazy way to get rid of smoke. Or you can break the smoke with some more POWERFUL smoke hitting against it. Surely you shouldn't need the smoke to fade out since the momentum of the backgrounds would cover it up. So it's pretty point less to fade it out like that.

Physics were off by a LOT. When he falls in the slope, it was very straight forward. The laws of physics should have brought him down sliding on the ground. Try using more sophisticated backgrounds as well. I know I shouldn't be the one saying this because I as well use black lines. But once in a while. Like me, you should make a complicated background. If you can pull off a good animation with zoom effects, dynamic backgrounds, etc. Then you have considered to gotten better.

Courtesy?

That was pretty sick man, nice fluidity in the movements. The smoke looked a bit bad how it disappeared so fast though. On the falling, I reckon the back could of bent backwards a bit more instead of leaning forward, but i guess thats just a personal opinion.
You look about inters, make another animation and you will probably get moved up.

kanine, that is so good, it flows nice and its very smooth. maybe could've added more effects but idk.
The idea itself is good but doesnt make much sense, whats the point of them fighting? Maybe the movements could be a little bit less floppy, i know its your style, but in this one they just... Courtesy?
E:oh its a race, I see.

The part where he falls down the hole and lands like that at the beginning was sought of okay, I guess. I don't like how he landed with his legs like that, but you were going for a cartoony style so I guess that's okay. The rest was truly intermediate by movements alone. Nice flow and you managed to make it incredibly smooth but still fast paced. Reminded me of PivAd. I like the part where he has the guy on top of him then throws the guy away (that was truly ace, such a complicated movement pulled off so well, truly inter! ^^). The beam at the end was okay, I didn't like how it ended though since it seemed lazy, but who cares? It wasn't focused much on the effects and stuff but the cartoony flowy movements.

I think you might get moved up soon.

Heh, thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated. As Skype told me to, when I finished this I sent it to him via PM, hopefully he'll be able to get online soon or something, lol.

Word, you deserve it. I didn't even notice you had a thread in the Animation Shift forum. You would have had my vote.
