Pfft, I´ve been doing that for years.  I can't believe it's taken you so long to catch up Neff.  But yeah, good job catching up with 2005.

SAGOOSAWHACK!
;D  I think you have found a new and wonderful use of the term SAGOOSAWHACK ;D

This morning Takeshi did record T3 (The Takeshi Tangler) with his head cam.
I recorded upside-down corkscrew, but it took me forever to get it right so we did not have time for other tricks.

Edit: I forgot to mention, I did record some double-tip drumbeat and and double-tip (proximal) joker-choker.

I have problems nailing tricks for Takeshi's camera also.  So intimidating that guy is.  If he could just relax a little bit and be more friendly in general...  SAGOOSAWHACK!

super neffy strikes again !!


great  :
the left hand throw with right hand wrapping is definitely a trick to have in the bag.... thanx daveid , i've tamed it for quite some time

but still the end of the trick remain a little messy:it's not rock solid like something to do on stage as an encore/..

we do the top tangler as a duo with Lapin but finish with the tops in a hat
less extreme but just as flashy

Here's the headcam footage of Top Tangler at Jorge's house.  I hope this will help any of y'all trying to learn it or at least give you a better understanding of the trick.



I really should learn that right-hand throw from the left hand.  That's just awesome!  I'll work on it :)

Great video of the TTT.  That really shows how it's done.  Thanks for doing this and posting.  But we need a shot of you with the headcam on!    ;D

That POV camera is awesome!  Thanks for puttin' up the video.  I've been putting my right hand up instead of my left for the twist, i dont' think that matters, does it?  BTW, Hope the crew had a great thanksgiving.  I remember spending thanksgiving on the RV tour... IN the RV... by myself... in Des Moines or some place...  wuh!  gives me shivers just thinking about it.

I'm just going to pretend that that's a huge decades-old video camera duck taped to fireman's helmet or something like that.
Awesome shot.
