have been in the staff section for ages

but figured out neck-spine-arss catch so thought i'd rave about it for a wheil

rave rave rave

anyhow the secret is to place the staff on the back of the neck really off centre so is almost pendulims back down the spine then jump into the catch and bring it through the leg quick b4 it hits the floor.

also have manged once or twice to put it into contact combs where you start by place the palce from behine the back onto shoulder- front neck-shoulder-180 -shoulder -180 -shoulder- 180 - neck - spine -arss catch

Contact without dance is like sex without wiggling.
A) it does feel as good
B) it does not look as good on film

Ok this not really new but a variation none the less

Matrix (not andre version) : first half, same as normal, second half as it comes around under arm (usually goes acreoss front of neck here)

Variant is - keep your head down and it does a halo (on the horizontal plane) from here you can almost go back into another matrix
