meh.. I don't know how to post the vid... but before you trap the ball, press [] and X at the same time... hard to do.. but I think it might come in handy

The chip-trap of the ball is very difficult to perform... the timing is very hard to get...

the move can be followed up by a volley or overhead flick... this move can also be performed with SuperCancel Feint... done it few times !

it best left to be used when trying to pull off showboat moves !

by the title i thought it was when you stop dead and chip the keeper,thats what i used too do b4 i learnt that secret lob on another thread.if i was clean through and had a bit of time i would stop and trap the ball,then use the l1/lb,ps2,360,lob,they just lean back and lob it,easier too score,well not now i know the secret lob.

this sounds intriguing tho

I scored a cracker with it, the ball chipped up, the keeper dived at my legs and i jumped with R2 leaving me with an open goal to walk the ball into the net with!

right i think i did this by fluke in a game just then....from a long pass the ball is coming an a i pressed square+x by accident, a what happens is the player looks like hes going to trap it normally but the ball bounces off and chips over any unsuspecting defender running in putting pressure on you..

If it is a secret lob, how you manage to do it? and the keeper saw it?

check out the thread called secret lob.

any1 got a video of this trap lob thing?i checked youtube but no look!!if i saw a video i could see if its worth learning

well... this is my question.... u think you'll be able to master it to do more than one consecutively??? like er.. keep ups?? I'm trying.. I think it might be possible

yeah but, if you do the chip trap at the right time.... while you do it once and the ball is in the air.... it might be possible to execute another chip-trap immediatly after, consequecially, doing a kepp up

This move is Near impossible tried it in training for ages and did it once or twice but very hard to shoot when its flicked up.
Wont be able to use it in a match just yet?
PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT

yes very hard..... I've been losing game after game trying to execuute it.. although prctice does make perfect.. came close a few times with cruyff and socrates... I did a cross, and it looked really cool plus it gave the ball a steep arch....

Okay, I've found that I can do this in training with about %90 accuracy with pretty much any competant player. Doing it in a match on the other hand is a great deal harder and nigh on impossible if the player you are attempting to do it with is being pressured by a defender/s...

Anyway as has been said before the trick is to press [] & X (simultaneously... Otherwise you'll just end up doing a shot fake that goes slightly out of control and will usually result in you losing the ball) a tiny fraction of a second before the ball hits the players foot. The only real way to get this timing right is to practice A LOT!...

Also keep in mind that the speed of the pass dictates how high the ball will 'chip up' so more often than not it won't go more much higher than the player's knee, the highest i've seen is about chest height which was from a hard manual pass (a complete fluke that i'll never do again as my manual passing is atrocious).

Another warning is that trying this is that i've lost many a match because i've wasted a great deal of opportunites trying to use this to score a 'Henry Vs Man U' goal, i've come very very close a few times (crossbar) but never achieved it... So use wisely!;)
