Re: Training Sessions

I still have to get it right with my eyes open first, it's a painful process. I'm determined to learn it without the trainer, so far it's not going so well.

Re: Training Sessions

if you're gonna learn scissoring, you'd might as well watch one of the best. why not use both hands while your at it? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzJwy9o-B60

I would've posted the vid directly, but it's not mine and I didn't ask permission

I think to be called scissoring, it needs to be caught between two fingers and go into a twirl. if you catch it full grip into helicopters or something, it's not the same. pretty sure the name comes from the shape your two fingers make when you catch, like a pair of scissors.

Re: Training Sessions

This was my interpretation of scissoring...
I thought it was just basically what Entropy does all the time...even in his "0011"...
Full twirl to aerial to full twirl again without much pause.
