I know I wanted to do some glowstringing and stuff for this video on edit it, but I got footage and later saw that not only was it a terrible session, but you couldn't see me at all and I got pissed so I just put this up.
And I'm not sure if it's my internet being slow because of the horrendous weather we're having here that's freezing everything over with about an inch of icy snow, or that the video lost all quality in the upload process, so please tell me. This is about exactly a year in the video. But all videos look like this to me currently so I'm pretty sure it's my connection.
I am in Detroit in an alley of the Russel Industrial Center playing to MIA. Those two things could not complement each other any better
And if anyone is wondering I am using Isis Poi from Salza.se, and the pants are from FlowToys.

Nice - I particularly like the turning flowers around 2.10.
The video looks fine to me, I suspect your problem is due to your connection.

That's really something for a year
just a suggestion or two...
pay just a bit attention more to planes...not when you are long arming around for shure, but where stops or things like waistwraps want to go everywhere, not a blaming...you are just now particularily clean, so don't give up
good spinning dude

Thank you for your comments, and thanks for the advice. Although with waistwraps where I personally think it looks like it came out of plane it actually hit my massive pants, or it might've been a meltdown. But yeah I never really noticed too much, but when I turned with my weaves, something so simple, my planes slowly got off. I'll have to work on that
Any more comments and tips would be appreciated

More hybrids! You've much talent and are a ways along on being a very good performer Very crisp moves, but I want to see things a bit more mixed up. Do more hybrid timing or isolate/long arming... that sort of thing.
... Keep doing your thing and making beautiful art!

Thank you for that, I wasn't sure if anyone noticed, but when I'm flowing I seem to always leave out my hybrids, which is a shame because I'm good at them

After a year? You must practice most days to be that good after such a short length of time.
Keep it up man.

WEll I usually practice at least like 15 minutes a day because I'll hear say a song or something come on in my room and I'll be like "Damn, I need to grab the glowsticks," or something. Anything heavier is kind of destructive in my low ceiling.
But I don't practice a lot anymore. My first couple months I was in for about 5-6 hours a day of practice and it slowly went down from there as I had less to practice.
