strugz, I have special glasses to see you with. Well I wouldn't call them glasses so much as multiple layers of duct-tape to block out the photons reflected off that thing you call a 'face'.

I got the jesus!! And I can move smoothly from the conveyor belt into a halo roll! I'll just have to try and move from a conveyer belt to a jesus now, without stopping!
I got half of a SNES, meaning I can't get it to the second shoulder after I get it round my neck. Off to look at the videos again I suppose...
Take that bruised jaw!
I still need to do the Steve... I get worried that its gonna hit me hard in the back of the head as it comes down my arm.
What about you professionals? Learned any gravity-defying stunts?

This is looking severely second class in the context of this thread but I am, nevertheless, chuffed as a badger.

Out of interest, do you lads and lasses make your own staffs? Or do you buy them online somewhere?
Mines from a local circus ship, was around £30, comes up to my eye. I added a little more weight to the ends, and I am thinking I needed to replace the grip - as the strange leather material is a bit crumbly and pants.
But all the staffs I see seem to have cushion grip around about 3/4s if the staff, where as my grip only seems to over about 20cms in the middle.
Oh, totally got the Conveyor Belt to Jesus transition, so I'm happy.
Got the SneS, bit wobbly at the halo roll. (Read: very wobbly)
And Fishtails are still a mystery to me.
But I'm slowly getting there... just need to practice more.

I just learned to do a fire ball, am way too happy cause of that.
But, I am stuck on doing a reverse figure 8.. I can do the first half.. but i start getting back in to the normal one! Are there any videos that I could be able to watch or any tips how to stop from going in to a normal figure 8?
By the way.. Joe, I envy your skill

Confound these fishtails!!!
I'm still going with the glue-idea.
On a brighter note, I got the SneS.
I'm slow, I know.
That's the basics nailed, with the addition of the Jesus.
Time to start learning the real stuff I guess!

man i aint been in here a while it seems.......
for the first time in weeks i went out for a play last night and came up with a little matrix / conveyor variation:
Matrix - come under right armpit, put hands together to wrap elbows (underside) as it comes around onto left, then onto right elbow (elbow, elbow transfer) turn so it falls onto your neck, either into continuous turning elbow things........ or back to matrix...... or wherever the flow takes you......
Tiz nice and has made me want to play lots again

Splendidness....
Good to hear it...
Meg visited here recently and I discovered, to my horror, that instead of a full Steve, as I'd thought I'd learned, I was actually doing a bad half-Steve.
After much mocking, she finally showed me both ways.
But I still can't do it.

Don't worry Clare, it took me a good few months to get the hang of them...
I trust her to whip you into shape at Uberparis...
Don't worry about the mocking either, it's either that or pulling on your pigtails...
(hmmmm, I need to make up a move and call it the 'Pigtail' )
