It's 2007, so what are your goals for this year?
I'm not real sure what mine are yet, I'll come back and edit this when I know them, but I do know a couple for sure: go to uberparis, and finish the LAB series of videos.
What are yours? Remember a year is a long time...
okay... my goals:
:: Tell a story, or at least communicate something other than "I can do staff well" in a routine.
:: learn a couple more performance styles.
:: get my knee better and do more acrobatics.
:: learn contact doubles, and possibly long doubles also.
:: make more comedy non-fire staffs.
:: learn to juggle three staffs
:: quit my job. go to circus school.
:: learn roue cyr
:: make more doubles tutorials.

btb = behind the back (as i understand this terms in this forum) so not only backcrosses (bitches) also reverse backcrosses, mixed with some throws i don´t know how to call , outside of our flat
fountain, in each hand 2 staffs (4444) is on one of the rubberhearts vids, antti -of course (guess: "revenge of the soy")
it might be easier to hold as a shower, its much lower to throw than 71 ...but 4 staff brrrrr
out of my league

bastl,i dont understand what you mean?"its much lower to throw than 71"?is this siteswap numbers?
as for the for staff shower,i can hold it ok in the daylight,BUT without the snake and sweep between the catch and throw,this was for me the hardest part of cleaning up three,i hope to get four staff clean this year but my throwing shoulder is starting to complain about all the work its doing!
i look forward to seeing the 3 staff backcross,what next?alberts and treblas?

So a mid-ish year update:
1: Have an idea for a routine, haven't got around to making it yet thou. My doubles routine, I would like to think might communicate something once I get it really good.
2: Still trying. Figured out what those performance styles are, but haven't done much about it yet.
3: Knee isn't better, but I still have managed to do some integration of staff and acrobatics... Still gotta continue with the knee healing thou.
4: Done a lot on this. Need to find more doubles contact moves to work on....
5: Done A LOT of this. Gonna make more thou....
6: Learn two staff throwing a lot better, and club juggling, but have yet to learn 3 staff juggling, apart from flashes. Have a much better idea of what I want to do with 3 staff manipulation thou.
7: Not yet.
8: Yup. Got one, can do it, need to buy a gym membership and convince them to let me use it in the squash courts.
9: Kinda, kinda not.
How's everybody else going?

Well I handed in my notice at the start of this month, today is my penultimate day in work, and I arrive in Ireland on the 4th of July.

- working on... The new wee ones have been out a bit in the flat and not destroyed it
- a little... much more needed
- Going to PLaY, but that's about it... but 1 is more than none... visiting Ed a fair bit too...
- meh... more work...
- not really yet... (see 2nd point)
- yeah I forgot I said this one...
- movement, yes... poncing needs more work
not quite at half way to goals...
Have been distracted by other toys...
Written by: why
Actually find some time to play with stick
Some staff training/practice rather than playtime sessions when I do make the time (e.g. all the 1/2 beats possible in the world ever)
Go to more conventions/meets to see LOVELY LOVELY people, oh and learn things
Get back my fluidity
Try and learn some more "moves" and thieir "families" (throwy things, better and new steveages, snesing, matrices (joining the 2 1/2s), better and new fishtails, pivoting joys)
Get happy with more o my repertoire on fire
More movement/prancing/poncing/posing of myself
Lots more I'd like to do, but a year isn't that long if you don't have a lot of staff time

huuumm,
own a fire staff again! , a pair of doubles would be amazing! either purchase or build soooon. Its been almost a year since i lost my staff at glade:( i have practice sticks but they just aint the same:)
to meet someone clever enough to fix my broken aerotech coz them dere at the factory have stopped fixing them.:( booo . . . . or upgrade to ultimates and buy a laptop . eak . . yay ?
main goal trickswise is to work on tricks with left arm and get generaly more amidextrous with my left side.

half the year gone and my goals are pretty much covered!
foot fishtails - as much as i can bothered to learn them.
circus training most definately remembered and furthered
did a bit of trapeze, even some contact stick on it. am getting more into silks.
staff juggling - i dropped this in preference for clubs
ball juggling - very happy with my renewed interest and progress.
rural parkour?? - didn't even remember this one! i think i may have done a week of messing around in trees, i moved to a town just after that post tho. beach parkour is going to be done for the next few months tho.
did the usual bjc 'spend all your loan on toys'
unfortunately i've destroyed my shoulder for the next couple of months due to bottling on a bit of dune jumping, knob. no right arm and only light use of the left is allowed so i'm screwed,
my crippled goals are:
balances
hacky sack
breathing
any other suggestions for non arm use manipulation would be much appretiated

3. Well... Something like it but not..

Short term: Get my happy a$$ to band camp tonight to have my friends feed me some new flag work...better known as "give me something to do when spinning staff on sunday other than spins, tracks, parallels, and singles/doubles/triples/quads."
Medium range: Get my up-down-up toss with the behind the back catch really solid. I can catch it sometimes, but I really need to perfect it. I used to have it way back when, but I lost it.
Long range: Get all my old flag tricks down solidly on staff. Some are easier...then there's the 45 parallel 1/2 turn sitting catch. Staffs just don't float that toss quite like flags. Oh yeah...and turn around tosses.
Can you tell I am a Colour Guard kid?
Short term: Get my happy a$$ to band camp tonight to have my friends feed me some new flag work...better known as "give me something to do when spinning staff on sunday other than spins, tracks, parallels, and singles/doubles/triples/quads."
Medium range: Get my up-down-up toss with the behind the back catch really solid. I can catch it sometimes, but I really need to perfect it. I used to have it way back when, but I lost it.
Long range: Get all my old flag tricks down solidly on staff. Some are easier...then there's the 45 parallel 1/2 turn sitting catch. Staffs just don't float that toss quite like flags. Oh yeah...and turn around tosses.
Can you tell I am a Colour Guard kid?

Yeah...I did grow up to staff, lol. I know other guard people that grew into staff, just cause it's such a freakin natural transition. I started with poi, but I always planned to do staff of some form.
