Staff Philosophy

Genius

Hm, I just read through this whole thread and one thing i noticed is that no-one seems to have mentioned this (and i would say this goes for poi too).

Staffs move in pre-determined motions, whose rules are laid down by the laws of physics. The flow that people always talk about is just that, moving with the motion that inertia and momentum define. Therefore, my philosophy of staff (and i've only been doing this for 6 months, so I'm JUST starting rolls) is simply this: Its my way of playing with the universe, more complicated rolls are more complicated ways of doing it. Just another example of the huge playground thats been provided for us humans.

In all honesty though, I feel the same way about music and longboarding, so as a definitive staff philosophy this might not work for everyone.

I like what you've said agnosic bu I recon he universe revolves around the staff. IT remains fixed in space and time a WE ALL revolve around it...(just shows how much fun it is really )

As we know,
There are known knowns.
There are moves we know we know.
We also know
There are known unknowns.
That is to say
We know there are some moves
We do not know.
But there are also unknown unknowns,
The moves we don't know
We don't know.
So get moving.

rumsfield would completely neglect the things we think we know, but are wrong about. :P

So many philosophies----so little time.

Staff Retention Philosphies.

1. Treat your staff with respect at all times.
2. Remember, they are all individuals and deserve individual recognition
3. Do not force them to do what you want to do, tell them where you want to go and let them lead the way.
4. And the key to staff retention...don't let go! :-)

durbs what the [censored] is UCOF?,
my staff philosophy is this
the harder you practise the better you get,
unfortunately antti seems to always do more than anyone else so dont worry about it to much.

this place is mental...............

and don't forget the unbeatable champion of fighting (or something like that)

what hes a cage fighter aswell?

My staff remains still.

I move the universe around it!

2. Remember, they are all individuals and deserve individual recognition


you are right,i will, from now on recognise their individuality...........why didnt i think of that?

cheers rabid i'll get right on it......skinning up as we speak..........................................

yeah its true in a way...each staff does have its own individualness....for instance...mine likes sticking to contact moves...and shes awesome in spin offs I must be going insane...
