Heh good to know I'm not the only one who's tried spinning large objects.

I've tried (and failed);
chairs (almost managed a 3beat)
friends (worked better than chairs, but still failed)
hammers (not sledge, just a regular hammer, but it was like spinning incredibly over weight clubs)
and a few other things that may come to me later...

I had some fun clubbing with a feather boa. I managed to do some weaves, windmills and butterflies on the dance floor.
People loved getting a buzzsaw to the face. Now that's a phrase you don't get to say too often...

Funny story. In seaside after prom everyone gets totally shnokered([censored]-faced) long story short me and the friends got wasted the night before, but the cop came and took away all of our stuff... it was ok though, i was gone by the time he got there, but thats another story ^_^. ANYWAY The next night at about 2am i decide it would be a great idea to go skinny dipping. So i did and I walked back to the hotel and the only door open is to a friend's room, seeing as i was locked out of mine i decided to go say hi. I did, stayed five minutes, security came to their place too and took all of their alcohol. The point of the story is i had my socks in my back pocket and as im standing there watching the cops take everything out i start doing a mini corkscrew with my socks. The cops didn't apreciate this and started yelling to put the weapons down just as i was going into a simple 3-beat weave and getting kinda into it. It was a bit scary then, but makes for a good story now.


Well, there's my story.

My first practise staff was a re-tractable paintbrush extention....So I had the choice of a really long or short staff....It's how I found my perfect length when I made my own...

Not very interesting....I know
