what do you guys think of speed-and-power sets with staff or baton? i use them as a frequent part of my troupe's shows, and the audience seems to just wake right up. the drummers tend to play more consistently afterward, too.

think extremely fast martial arts moves, strung together so as to flow seamlessly, giving an effect akin to being surrounded by a swarm of angry flaming hornets. there's a pic of what i mean in my gallery. it's a 1 &1/2 second exposure, titled "reckless speed."

the pics a blurry mess
i think i know what you mean though.
i have a natural speed that i spin at. Maybe when i get better i wil have to skill to vary the pace without interupting the flow. Letting the speed build up naturally so to speak.
Then again, somtimes when the drummers get carried away i find myself going a bit mad anyway. But then im wrecked after 20 minutes *shrug*
got any vids?
