What is kipping? Am I wrong, but only the chin has to be even with the bar right? But a the end of the day, the guy with the tats gets the girls. Wearing wanna be Walker Texas Ranger tight ass pants might help, but not sure if I'd want to try that mess out.

CrossFit Seminar Staff member James Hobart demonstrates the kipping pull-up. For more info on CrossFit's Trainer Courses: https://training.crossfit.com/cours...
With a kip I could do over 75 pull-ups by the end of boot camp. Without the kip I could do maybe 25 pull-ups. It was originally a gymnastics move to "mount the bar". It takes good core strength as well as upper body strength.
Until 1990 sometime, a "small kip" was allowed during the PFT pull-ups section. It was dropped in favor of dead-hang pull-ups. I still micro-kipped after that point. As long as I did not contact the arm of the scorer held in front of me it counted. The kip in the video I attached is over-exaggerated for doing pull-ups - if you have practiced enough.
