Hey all - lit a staff for the first time tonight and there happened to be a camera and I happened to get the video. Went immediately home and put the finishing touches on my own staff. I've been practicing for about eight months and do a lot of contact ball. Not really a lot of planning here; just kind of went with the flow.

After reviewing a couple times, here are my own self-criticisms:
-change planes more often
-change directions more frequently
-don't forget neck/shoulder wraps
-more pronounced halos
-complete the fixed-point isolation
-breathe
-uproot
More constructive criticism appreciated. Don'wanna be reinventing the wheel or getting stuck on plateaus if I can avoid it.

Changing planes - pah. It doesn't matter.
Change directions? Drew would be against it. It's called spinning, not stopping. (;) Devils advocate, do whatever you like)
I would say:
Get rid of noodle arm / dinosaur arm.
Get a better camera person.
Good music, but no dancing.
Don't look at the staff. It's not a ball, you know where it's going to fall off.
Make the staff your bitch.
