I love how our Airbender discombobulated his opponent by attacking his senses. That’s a creative use of air bending we haven’t seen yet.

I love the fact that it doesn't finish harshly, and instead the air bender is just making him fix his broken paraglider. It's almost kinda wholesome, the rock guy wanted a challenge and the air guy was just having a glide.

The detail of the Earthbender parting the dust cloud was super cool since they're in a rocky terrain so the cloud would primarily be made from rocks

I love how the fight wasn't started by the airbender, since they are pacifistic. Also incredible animation as always :)

I love that the disoriented earth bender kinda desperately throws rocks around after being being temporarily crippled. It gives them a lot of emotion and character even if this isn’t meant to be story based.

2:22 "I'm gonna put some dirt in your eyes."

That clap to the ear with a wind blast after blinding the Earthbender was absolutely stunning. What an animation!! What a fight!!

You can tell the personalities and characteristics without them even uttering a word, phenomenal work!

bro went Air Dance Style 1:46

You can see that the airbender’s fighting style is very floaty and agile. They are also trying their best to avoid collateral damage. Very true to the show.

1:58 Seismic sense vs. air resistant. He can use earth bending to feel his movements. However, a bald air bender can react quickly to an object hurling at them.  So they cancel kinda cancel each other out.

I like how they're not super powerful being, the airbender doesn't have weightlessness nor does he pull out the air from the earthbender's lungs, we also don't see metal nor lava bending
They're just casual benders, one's just chilling and the other wanted a challenge

I love the way you portrayed both elements, the airbender didn't start the fight since they are peaceful and still managed to win it, showing how strong and powerful they can be, as well as using their opponent's strength against themselves, eluding him and even taking away his vision and hearing without seriously injuring him.

Obviously the animation is stellar, but can we talk about the sound design too? It lines up so well with the choreography and they made everything match up so well! It really sets it apart from your standard action scene :D

I like to think that the airbender was just travelling to one of the temples but was interrupted because the earthbender wanted to prove his worth or have some fun for himself.

We can see it didn't go well for them. One has to get his glider fixed and the other has to fix it, and they're in a literal rocky place with no other person in kilometers where you can be lost.

Probably they became friends after this.

I tought Water vs fire was top tier, but this is just insane, choreography and camera movement is amazing! Animation is great as always but I still see big improvement

The sequence from 1:50 onwards is probably my favourite, because you can very clearly infer the earthbender's strategy and thoughts without even seeing him most of the time.

The moment the airbender takes a single step on the ground, the earthbender's picked him up on his tremorsense - you can see him smirk for a brief moment, as if to say 'there you are!'. So he launches a rock at that location, only for the airbender to dodge and counterattack immediately. Attacking from an unseen location alone won't work, the airbender's reflexes are too honed.

So for his next attack, he makes sure to immobilise the airbender first, then launch a bigger rock that he can't deflect with air.

The fact that all of that was communicated with no dialogue is a testament to how well done the choreography is.

3:08 WOW! What a cool move! Wish we'd had it in the series.

What a masterpiece, it was animated so well

Thanks for watching guys! This took around 2 months to make while working a full time job, so this project has been a daily routine for me every night. Had tons of fun planning and seeing it all come together, hope you guys enjoy! ☺
Edit: For those who thought why didn’t the Earthbender use seismic sense after the Airbender put some dirt in his eye, the Airbender slapped him in the ears to deafen and disorient him which made it difficult to focus on seismic sense.
