from that anti spin arm jesus I figured you can actually jesus whilst windmilling your arms ao they stay at right angles to the staff but it's tricky across the shoulder.

When did you have time for anti-spin Steves?
Was that between the 5th and 6th or the 9th and 10th pint?

*ignores juggling comment*

Last night i learnt something new, i think its an old move in theory but a new one in practice - for me anyhow

Matrix, but the one that you duck your head under, at this point (say staff is going right to left) as it hits the left shoulder turn towards it and face the sky forcing it into a horizontal jesus, eventually exiting on the left ready to go round again

well........ almost anyway.

Thanks to Simon the fireman for this one

OH and i got antispun steves - however they are blaitantly just horizontal 4 beat angel rolls

i would learn some new [censored] like hand to foot to hand fishtails today, and they would be crazy as... its a shame my sticks are 20 miles away
whats the trick called when you do a normal steve and at the end it rolls back down the inside of your arm, across the throat and back up the inside of the other arm (to where the steve started) got those, but not continous
i know what your saying with those double angel rolls sandy, they're bastards. i cheat and take them off just after they hit the opposite shoulder.
also sandy, what do you mean by double steves? are they crossing at the neck or are the 2 stix running around together or are they running parralell? i'm trying them running together, then they tend to split to parralel, leaving one on the starting side of the neck while the other continues round (then nudge 2nd stick round after steve is complete)
got a side/body roll to leg trap to lynx like thing too, this roll to foot fishtail is on its way too (bruised tops of feet, ouch!)
enought of this waffle, i've got 1000's of words to write on bloody plants, not sticks!!!

Dude, that would be a "full" Steve, down one arm and up the other is only half

Sandy double steves are down inside arm and outside opposite arm at the same time, the staffs cross the neck front and back at the same time. Looks sweet and is damn hard.

Good work on ya foot fishies! there a bugger too!

ethnobot: Yea what strugz said. Also they can be done in butterfly where they cross on the same side of your neck, doing them frontside is easier than doing them parallel but doing them on the back (2 'normal' half steves in opposite directions) is waaaaay harder, so far this move has just lead to lots of smacking me in the lip, always in the same spot too.

Strugz: i think thats a substitution matrix, where you substitue the middle for a jesus. Fair play if you are getting it, its bloody difficult, ive only been able to substitute a halo so far.

That was a vertical minimum steve and an angel roll, entirly different move.
Im never gonna live that down am i? If it makes any difference its the only time i have ever hit anyone other than myself, shame it was such a nasty lump. I did offer cantus a free swing at my face as retribution, luckily hes a nice boy and didn't take me up on the offer.

Nice boy? You should beware that Cantus does not attack with his fists. And he is merciless...
