Forums > Advanced Staff moves > advanced staff juggling ... let�s go mad !!

I think its time to restart the staff juggling thread in the advanced forum.

Since quite a few ideas were mentioned in the old thread that don`t seem to really fit in a beginners section.

I would really appreciate if people would post there ideas.
But do me a favor and make a distinction between claiming
to really have a move and random ideas.
it will help reduce misunderstandings

And it will give us a better over view where people are.

To get you started :
I was playing around with a lot of 531522 variations

one is (i think) quite interesting
you know the one throw were you throw a staff as a waist cross and catch it with the other hand on the opposite side of the waist
use it as the 3
it is fun

'There are two mantras in life, yum and yuk. I choose yum.'

Woah... I've only had chance to watch part 1 but just wow... Some of you guys are really solid, really impressive stuff.

More schoolgirl gushing to follow after parts 2 and 3
