You'll find more posts to more links to video clips in every post I make in this thread - Look out for 3 angels
Todays video for your pleasure:
Baton twirling - Sheryl Welykholowa, Jill Ford, Stacy Singer - Triple Threat
Linky linky
Details: On stage probably 2002 . A super tight performances from world champion standard baton twirlers.
Amazingly talented trio including Stacy Singer doing monster rolls - a move apparently invented for her and remamed matrix by the edinburgh staff twirlers.
See Glitzy stuff, 3 baton juggling, contact sequence and some qualilty strutting about.
If you like this, make a post below. If you have any requests, I can post them too.

oh, I thought monster rolls refered to the entire neck spins and matrix and frontside stuff. If you'd said it was delinated, I might have used that name instead.

Thanks for posting Drew
as for requests - erm, can you sort me out those three for an evening?
Failing that some more of the same please
or a video of yourself
Matrix is a cool name - however "monster roll" has its qualities.... maybe we need to create a monster move to suite it

Yeep...
Are any of you staffer types in contact with the baton twirlers?
It shouldn't be that hard to get a contact email.
This lady should be invited to the EJC

Thanks again for posting, Saturdays super link:
Well seeing as that was 2 lots of Stick links, I think it has to be something for the poi fans
click to gallery:
https://www.indrayoga.com/Gallery.htm
Expect to see: 2 ladies, of indra - lots of wiggling/dance/ not technical spinning
I like the chilled out yoga stuff at the begining, thats fab
Personally I'm not so keen on the trashy pornstar stuff later on in the clip, its not the style I dig.
It kinda makes me laugh
but I guess thats what sell over there in the US of A.Definately High quality filming and production and hence earn a place in Drews Super video blog.
cool

Sunday Special. Not poi. not staff, but
Bees fighting - Hold on for the surprise ending as to how the little bees fight back against the big hornets!!
Then tell me, how the hell did that evolve??
National Geographic News 2005 Number 1 video clip:
Bees Battle "Hornets From Hell"
"A small but highly efficient killing machine lurks in the mountains of Japan—the Japanese giant hornet. The voracious predator pumps out a dose of venom with an enzyme so strong it can dissolve human tissue. Just a handful of these hornets can kill 30,000 European honeybees within hours. Watch an attack of giant hornets on a beehive, and learn the surprising secret that Japanese honeybees use in their defense."
Here's the rest of the Nat Geog top 10:

Mmmmmmmmmmmm....
They didn't have the old shows up last time I looked... (some dubious clubswinging
, but the horses are great!) Nice to see the progression, how they've kept the energy, but made things much more pure and clear.I tried to ask them if they had a full dvd, but they never replied

Its Wednesday, and Wednesday is poi day:
Here's a link to one of my top 5 favorite poi videos of all time:
Andy House Spinning in Koh Tao
If you want to see this footage in high quality I recommend that you buy COL 5.
Beautifully filmed, beautiful music, Awesome spinning by a lovely guy. Perfect.
Here is where it was first posted on HOP, in a thread (not in the video section) thats worth reading and a link to that beauiful sand art too:
