Edit: Fixed links...
OK, I think I finally found something that hasn't been posted in the past. This is a japanese site with a ton of info. on batons, as well as some videos. Of course it is all in japanese, but I've run it through a translator which does a reasonable job for most of the stuff.
The main advice section is here:
Tomo's Advice Page (Translated)A page with just the videos is here:
Tomo's Videos (Translated)Advice Page (Japanese) Video List (Japanese)Stuff like Fishtail and Illusion that were discussed on a past baton thread have videos. There is also a really cool contact roll called Butterfly. Like a globetrotter going from one hand to the other along the back of the neck, but it actually flips across instead of a flat roll.
BTW.. for some of the shakier translations, Bar TIKARU is Vertical. Flow RISSHU is Flourish. Most of the rest is easy to figure out. Undershirt Hand Flip is just Underhand Flip. I dunno what Guranjute is, though...
There is close to 50 videos total, so hopefully there is something helpful in there!
