A few staff moves for people to play with :)

Cantus,

I agree with you fully.. but I think I should get my basic helicopter spin working before I try that move.. lol. Or Im going to wack myself in the face and legs before I even get the chance to jump.

<washes cantus' mouth out with soap and kerosene> :P

I do tooooo do night-time spinning! I meant to film some night stuff for the compilation, I really did, but I think it rained or something, so I didn't get a chance. So there! :P

the memories fire, the rhythm falls slow....

But, my dearest Xaeda, if you span at night you would deprive us all of the main benefit that daylight affords us.
Namely the chance to bask in your beauty.

In the past, the fools would pay, to see the freaks of the day. The contradictions of the norm. The bizarre, the wonderful and deformed.
No need for the tents and cages now. The wool covers our eyes. In front of the TV circus - a freakshow in disguise.

Smooth Cantus.. real smooth..

heh heh heh

I think staffing looks just as good in the day as in the night.. course.. I have never actually seen it done, so cant say for sure, but in the videos it seems like you miss alot.

P.S. Xaeda, saw some of your movies, tres cool. Keep it up and let me in on some trade secrets

------------------
May the fire of God burn its impression on your heart.

What do you mean smooth? That was heartfelt.

Anyway, it's to no avail, it shall fall on deaf ears, as Miss Xaeda doesn't seem to like me

Oops. There I go being fickle again.

If anyone needs me I'll be in my usual hiding place....

Ask Flash if you're unsure

*splosh*

Question is.. do I want to know what your hiding in that goes *Splosh*? SOunds pretty gross...

Rain Barrel. Good place to be cold, wet and miserable.

Sometimes I just hide under the table (but that's when I want Flash to find me... )

I smoke which is really bad. I only smoke outside which is good. I keep a broom handle by the back door so when I'm out there I can do stuff, which is good. My Girlfriend insists on filling our tiny garden with pot plants and hanging baskets and then shouts at me when things get broken, which is bad. I do have another handle at my parents house and they have a big garden, which is good. They also have dogs that crap everywhere in the big garden, which is bad. I just can't win.

I forgot to mention my point. I'd like to try new, daring moves but I don't have the space. OOH! Talking about smoking. I was outside smoking earlier, Spinning and thinking as always, when a thought occurred to me. Two person staff spinning/kung faux fighting performance. How good could that be? I'll have to teach my bro' to staff though as I know no-one to do it with. But saying that, when I tried to teach my lil' sis to pass clubs I accidently stabbed her in the chest. I shouldn't have used the knives, I know. Anyhoo. That's all I have to say about that, so there. HAHA

Ah, wounding siblings in the name of art is always good.

I hit my brother fairly hard across his head with one of my staffs. He seems a tad bitter about it. Made a good noise though.

Cantus.. lol. Was it a cracking of the skull sound, or just that nice hollow thud sound? heh heh heh.

Still thats pretty harsh.. ouch. I have yet to really give myself a good hit in the head. Only place I have hit realy good is my elbow. My head I have just glanced it off of.

Due to the lack of room I have, I've done big damage to myself. I was doing a big furious move, the staff bounced of the wheelie-bin and smacked me in the face. It wouldn't have been so bad but I was already bruised where it hit from drunkedly walking into a lamp post the day before. Doh!!

If it makes a good noise when you hit it once, then hit it twice.

Back on subject please people.
I don't want this turning into yet another "hey, look how stupid I am!" thread.

Describing potentially lethal staff moves is fine as long as they are a learning aid to others

Don't do neck wraps with a cigarette in your mouth..... bad mojo.

------------------
If you love something, set it on fire.

I haven't had a cigarette for 2 weeks. Hopefully I wont be spinning with one in my mouth in future....
