more speed! less control

So where was the doubles or any anti-spin in that?

strugz, i dont think he knows the meaning of antispin..... just how to prance around and turbo spin.
spammer.

i thought it was quite an ok vid actually

smooth, good form, some interesting spinning.

but the spamming is bad form. Naughty firespinner! Don't do it again! Post in the videos forum rather than in a load of totally unrelated threads and we'll say much nicer things about your video

Ok following on from a question from Ben, a weekend session with MCP and the fact that i dont want to do any work at the moment........

What i called multiple beat butterfly anti spin..... (which after study actually isnt, but its still fun and a sweet ass move.

Normal butterfly antispin starting horizontal (thumbs outwards) , lifting your arms to "12 oclock" back of the hand leading, then to hoizontal, (thumbs inwards) at this point us the ends of the staff your thumb is pointing to to make the downward motion, the staffs pass eachother at 6 oclock, do a beat then your back to start position.

There is a fraction of the move where your going spin spin, rather than anti........ either way it flows really well and makes diamonds and circles....... lots of em

MCP has some footage of it - hassle her

alrighty, ive just read 8 pages of random geometrical links, aswell as staring at random doubles antispin patterns for extended periods of time.. now im gona run off and try em with poi

cheers, pete

Fingerspins helps a lot for antispin mouvments, if you want to keep the figure, pentagon, exagon, whatever.. in front of you. But I'm sur Simian can find a contortion solution
anyway, for doubles, making a penta or exagon "One beat shifted" , you need to turn on your self even with fingerspins to finish the whole cycle.
otherwise, you might cut one of your arm ...

Or ask Simian

I'm actually not really interested by butterfly antispin... you need a double transfert for that I guess.

It's really better when you can synchronise it with someone else: one staff each (or two but parallal shited ), so you take more visual space, it's easyer to do and it looks better. for me


PS : Shay... I just love your spin !! you're soooo good never see such clean double antispin. I try to learn how to read english ... do you?

ok maybe I just can't do it properly, i need you to convince me show somthing

no, nor did psi / mike from bristol pick it up way faster when you showed him how to do it. That didn't happen. Nor did I blatently nick the way meast teaches it from the calais video...I would never do such a thing.

[ I had to pull simians arms and legs around for ages... then take photos of him in funny positions... ]

ohhh, from Meast was it?

Goes to show why i refer to 'behind the head antispin' as 'french style'

no not that move, that's my move! mine! just the way of teaching the normal butterfly anti-spin. I'd been that move for ages, but the calais video made me reinterpret it... Which I used to teach it to some other dude at synergy.

this is what LAB 6 is going to look like... but better...


megnut

<edit>fix-ed</edit>

with overlays like that - lab 6 will kick some ass

i want to see your new super computer...... when can i stay at yours dammit - in time for lab 7? !

not yet dude but there will be............. no pip though i dont think.... ask the balding hippy

any how all this talk of Labs - im off to see Lab 4 again on friday, the last ever night of Slinky at the Opera House

Hopefully it will, I think this is the future:

LAB 5.6 - me n' simian. (normal lab)

LAB 6 - PIP

LAB 6.XV - Me with funky overlays...

Strugz / neon / people I know, you can visit me anytime you like... I might even get my flatmates to cook for you. We have two extra keen cooks in our house who compete over sunday roast... madness. and a couple of spare beds, plus a whole room for juggling / spinning in...

Strugz? Slinky?

Cheers Meg (I love how people still refer to me as Neon and I still respond...)

I will bring a wooly mammoth with me to keep me warm...

Sorry? Did you say something...?

yeah and who are these 'dunc' and '_claire_' people? Where did custom_bug and firepoise go?

firepoise?
isn't she furry purple nowdays?
but come on, changing from a nickname to your real name makes at least *some* sense.
changing from one seemingly random screenname to another makes me ignore posts that i would normally want to read
and worse, the name neondave no longer means anything - do you know how many dave's i know?!??!

i tried changing my avatar once.
that nearly got me an e-lynching.
so maybe i'm just jealous

and @
this thread has been off topic since halfway down the first page!

i can't see the vid meg - what's an 'overlay'?
does it make your video less squishy to walk on, like the opposite of 'underlay' for carpets?


cole. x

But why lose a name as cool as firepoise? Look it has poise in it and everything, and fire, and poi and like what could be better?

can you see this one cole: http://videos.tepookatoys.com/media/private/interface2.avi

your answer will tell me whether my conversion method to AVI's works or not... it should be either DivX or XVid encoded... one of the two.

You referenced this thread in another thread cole, I saw you! So it must be useful, if entirely off topic.

Anyway, this thread will be coming in handy for my video...

yay! im finally getting antispin staffness, with poi. its kinda tricky cos i can stop the poi heads, but im making progress. so far all i can do is this:
mmmmmmm, nerd poi

Yay @ Pete

Re: My name - I liked the name Neon Shaolin but ever since watching Bender in action I've felt less deserving of the title since I don't actually know any martial arts.

Juxtaposeur was an old screenname which still fits me so i reverted to that...

Should I do something as spineless as conducting a poll to see if I should change it back...?

Vote 'Yes', 'No' or 'Couldn't give a monkey a sore arse'

i obviously vote 'yes' for what its worth dave (so far, as i'm the only one to vote, i win!)


ah, i should have actually said "i can't download form tepooka's server when at work"

sorry meg - i'll try downloading both tonight and will let ya know how the avi looks


cole. x

Actually this Poll is just for the purpose of deciding whether or not I should have a Poll to determine the fate of my moniker...

is that a blocked server issue, a can't download things while at work issue, or a I should be doing work while at work issue?

Cos I could put it up on gogoogogogogogle?
