Title: [Trick] Mirror crazy eights
Post by: bAd on December 11, 2012, 04:08:00 PM

This was supposed to be the trick to end my freestyle at Italian nats, if only that left hand top had unwound better...  ::)

The two STB have mirrored OWB, and are wound in opposite directions.

The symmetry of the trick is beautiful.  Very nicely done!

It is not a trick I would recommend for a freestyle.  It takes too much time to setup.  And with the pressures of the stage most likely you will screw up before starting.

Thank you guys!  ;D
I too like the symmetry, it came out nice, and it's the reason why I throw the two tops "mirrored" rather than in twin mode...

You're absolutely right about screwing it up on stage, Ta0, it's exactly what happened.... I'll keep it as a "wow" trick for relaxed performances, rather than for competitions!
Lesson learnt.....  ::)  ;)

Maybe it is hard on stage but it can be done!
