....and see what really bad looks like.

Ok, so I picked up an ebay special about a couple months back. Took some video of me trying to do some butchered attempt at the Cairo Flash.

I just watched Adam's latest 10 ft whip vid (which rocks!) and thought to myself, what the ####, put up your vid so you can have some experienced guys/gals tell you what you need to fix in your technique. I've got an 8ft 12 plait ebay whip from "olde-tyme-stuff-1" .

That thread title was awesome!!!!

I can't watch the video at this moment, but maybe I'll come back tomorrow and let you know what I thought, if you don't get some good comments by then.

It seems like alot of folks on here want to start out doing "Flashes" and crossovers and cutbacks without getting the basics first...
Godknows i did!
the first videos i posted where terrible.
I remember Lauren telling me that i was "all over the place"...
at the time I had no freakin idea what she meant, but now i do...... what she meant was the PLANES of cracks...... side, front, overhead, etc...

Id highly suggest watching this video viewtopic.php?t=28123 about a million times.
start with the cattlemans and work on it a hundred times.
I hear alot of wind noise, so it might be distorting it, but some of the cracks sound more like whooshes.
I know this because i was doing the same thing!!

)
heck, i still do.

Like my MA instructor always says, the 3 most important things are; "Basics, Basics and Basics"
