Akuma: Spin to Win combo

This combo... this damn combo took me SOOOOOOO long to do! My god. I was inspired by KYSG's video but I was adamant about doing it myself. I'll say it right now, input is not my forte (despite making these GIFs) so making this was one hell of a trial. It may look like just jumping and using tatsu -- and it is! But each tatsu needs to start within I believe 1, maybe at best 2 frames from the time your feet leave the ground. 
 
Now ordinarily, this wouldn't that difficult except Tatsu is a quarter-circle back motion and you need to jump forward. Typically, to do a special or aerial super the moment you leave the ground, you do the motion first and then jump. Like say when I use Ibuki's SAI the moment I leave the ground, I do quarter circle forward on the ground and the second one as well but from the second I lead into jumping diagonally up, being sure to press a punch button the moment I leave the ground. A backward motion would lead you jumping backwards so this means you have to be really quick with your stick. (Which I am not)

This is without a doubt my favorite GIF because of that. Spent about an hour or two for 5 days before I sat down one morning and said "I got this" and did it first try. Slept on that shit! Plus, I also think this combo looks damn cool but that's just me.
