That was an excellent first video!  8) Paris is being challenged by Lyon!   :D
Good future for French top spinning!

Were all the tops bearing or some fixed?  For fixed-tip trapeze (drum beat) I would let the top slide down just a little bit faster.  On the orbits around your right arm, try moving the left hand in and out so as to start doing the movement needed for regeneration.

By the way, you have a state-of-the-art set of tops!

Hi !!!

yes you are right, on the orbit i have to move my left hand, i realized it by watching videos ......, thanks for the advice for the drum beat !!!! I have to practice again .....
Before i used to live in Paris so Jim is in my heart . By the way i try to challenge all the french player ... ;D

Concerning the video, all tops are set with bearing except for the STB2 and the trompo grande (spintastics, i removed the original tip and set a Trompo "player designed" steel tip, it play really better !!!!

thanks for your comment !!!
