Right, I can now do the contact weave (thanks, Knoxious). But spookily, just as I got it working, I actually caught the scent of fish in the air...

mmmm yummy fishtails
was working on the contact weave last night too. it really is a very handy way of learning fishtails too.
also try it with an extra beat on each side.

thats way too easy lava and doesnt hurt nearly enough.
im talking about twisting up your arms so you get extra beats into the weave. Like the way you do a five beat weave with poi. cept its a stick.
also four beat contact windmill
and other weird stuff im doing confusatron style behind my head but cant describe.

Ha-hey, I just did a SNES. A pretty unattractive SNES, but definitely very SNES-like. And managed to tidy up those halo rolls.
But I've having major problems nailing the half-steve. Anyone have any tips? Mostly what happens is the stick rolls down my arm and sort of diagonally wraps my shoulder blades rather than my neck then falls off. I have a feeling that I'm lowering my shoulder too much but do any of the staff senseis here have any tips?? For a start, when it first rolls down your arm is it meant to be centred all the way, or off-centre a bit?
All help muchly appreciated.
Ed

start if off center, so that it contacts the arm centered, then keep the shoulders level, and it should wrap, then drop wecond shoulder, and let it roll down the arm, if possibly centered as well
how you entering your snes, opposite arm to shoulder, or same side?

Cheers, mate! We'll see if that works. If you keep it centred all the way down, does it eventually reach your neck off-centre so it can wrap properly?
SNES - opposite arm to shoulder - when I tried the same side, the staff tended to roll away from the neck before I could turn in time.
Regarding the SNES: Thank God for a really padded beanie. Heh.

i havent looked at it, to see if it does reach the neck off center, but i guess it is.
ooo now try the snes leaning in strange places, and you might start matrixing.
same side is tres difficult, but it works after a while.

Ben i completly agree with the over practicing thing, i spent all of yesterday spinning with fluff trying to get dual fishtails and the closest i got was 2 beats, pesky critters!
now ive got RSI in my right wrist and it hurts like hell 
Also spent a lot of time on the behind the neck matrix (trying to get into a SNES) but didnt get too far, come back to that one me thinks 
Did however get the neck wrap matrix down pretty well (about 60% of the time now) where you do the first half of the matrix, do a neck wrap (or propeller whatever you wanna call it) then the second half of matrix. WOOO.
Richee by BTB fishtails do you mean fishtailing behind the back or fishtail passing from one hand to the other behind the back? ive been working one the second one for a while and was wondering what you had found.
