ok...so i was just bored and wanted to say something about fountains without really saying anything ....so here ya go

just to be awkward


never thought of a fountai as a move, but as a family of moves, where the poi make lots of smaller circles within one big circle.

bad exp.?

thought so

no, actually I think that is a great explanation, the only one that truely makes sence. I recently figured out what a fountain was (from watching ghost in the woods (PK)) and that is what I saw. A bunch of small circles in a larger circle.

Ok, can’t resist. The fountain is an “old skool” club swinger move, so the combinations are well documented. Check the first post in the club swinger thread for a link to an “old skool” description.

It’s not a difficult move to learn, and most people tend to discover it without knowing what it’s called. So, while it’s true to say that the fountain is a big circle, made up of little circles, it’s really the sequence of body movements (fwd to rev cross and follows; low, high and btb) that make it functional. I see it as a huge frame, that you can hang a lot of other moves off, and hey, it looks pretty too

awkaward? bluecat - you ignoring my posts completely nowdays or what...?

thought so

weave/corsckrew/weave/revcorkscrew/weave
no!!
corkscrews???dont you have to be in a horizontal plane??or floor??
i think a fountain is strictly a wall plane!!

i think this is more like it in my eyes?? am i wrong??
-------- -----------
weave // split time chase the sun // weave // chase the moon. ------fountain??

Quite an impressive bump right there.

ok, so been lurking on this thread for some time now. I'm happy that a fountain is weave-windmill-rev weave and thats cool. But the question i have is what then is weave-revweave-windmill-weave. just some weird variation....?

hmmm..

Er... well in simplistic terms, keeping it all wallplane, weave -> windmill -> rev-weave (repeat) is an anti-spun fountain...
Rev-weave -> windmill -> weave being with spin..

(In my mind anyway...)

I still dispute there's a full windmill in a fountain though
*runs*

There's no windmills in a fountain. Only the illusion of windmills...

There are no droids in a windmill.

Ive stopped getting hung up on names of moves.
I liked Durbs move description. Splittime swishy swashy.
