I got bored again. oh wait, that's not a new move. Where is that video mr ben-ja-men? I'll host it for yooooou!

Er... so you can do a half steve where you lean back and let it pass over your chest instead of around your neck. I'm going to see if I can do a similar thing in the vertical plane tomorrow for a laugh. I think it will be very much like a frontside halo roll with arms rolls in and out, but it might feel CRAZY good, so I will give it a try.

Played last night with horizontal conveyor belts - these are real sweet especially for turning....... you can drop it onto the back of your neck for a few/ many as you like rotations then back out into the conveyor

Also playing with what i think is a horizontal jesus with an under/round the shoulder entry - it involves some rapid turning and your face gets slightly in the way but its fun

Some kind of turning one beat. On my leg

Was playing aound with steves and chest side spins too. Akward but cool. And it does some weird things. Like going back up the same arm. Works In forward Half steve and Frontside half steve.

So is a full, Full Steve, Down the arm, Spin on the back, Up the arm, down again, spin on the front and back up the first arm?

If its not, what is it?:)

rain is good at putting out fires tho Jublian. its rainin on and off down here too.

yesterday i learnt a cool contact move, but i cant find the name of it now! its the one that goes around your arm, over the back of both hands, over the other arm, then you turn so it comes over your shoulders and you start again!

YAY for contact!

Your crazy Meg, looking forward to meeting you.

Pitty Ben from UberOz couldn't do a double jesus, though he did do a great impersonation of you. If only you saw Meg. hahaha I am sure Rob has pics.

PS : Rob please post those pics.
