That was really mime like for me with a good constant illusion. Almost 5 minutes without stopping that's crazy. Nice beat freak at 4:15 btw. What was the song?

the first portion i was diggin, lots of good angles, mixin those 90's in well.  2nd half wasnt feelin.  i think it's dope that you're experimenting with a different style of liquid though, always nice to have shit outside of your norm for when the typical stuff just doesnt fit the music. 

a few things i wanna mention:

vertical levels: you have 3 of them.  you could easily have 5.  bend at the knees.  bend at the waist.
footwork:  70% of the time your foot movements are random.  if you're going to walk around, make sure the movement in your upper body *warrants* walking around.  if you could do the same illusion while standing in place, there was no need to walk around.  let the movement in your lower body help the illusion that your upper body is making.

Your arms have gotten really, really slick, for the most part, I feel like the illusion breaks here and there, but, especially since I haven't watched you in a few months, I like how you are developing a more personal style.

Legs: It must be people with builds like ours (I am tall and lanky, as well), but I have some of the same troubles you do in fitting the puzzle together of smooth flow between legs and arms. I hit the same walls with full body flow, and I am hoping I unlock the secret to smooth body flow soon. Definitely dig the video though. I tend to learn the most from your vids as I can get my mind around your flow due to our similar body types.

so the caves came and went, and it was once again a blast gettin down with some of the floasis crew. that was actually the best part of my entire weekend :), mucho inspiration from all that showed up. as i mentioned in another thread i've practiced very little between now and then. just had other stuff goin on(mostly starting school again).

couple weeks ago me and kai shot some footage at botanical gardens and it was my first time gettin down in awhile. had fun but i dont think my dancing was as creative or as technical as i thought it should've been(my digits/digi liquid was ASS CONCENTRATE). so thoughts/critques always help if you've got one, but i'm not actively lookin for one on these 2 clips, i'm hoping to practice somewhat regularly for the next month and i'll put somethin in the peer review sometime in that time period.




also some cool pics i took of the place here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8478990@N08/sets/72157607775887992/


immediate goals/things i'm trying to work on: wrist rolling, fixed point stuff, and the never ending posture/arm-tension battle. i really wanna try to exploit the fact that most ppl note my arms with my liquid lol. also tryin to figure out some more complex paths i can branch off from. stay choooned!

the digitz... GREAT, you finger dexterity is amazing and don't think i noticed it till this clip.  I remember catching some stuff here and there at parties but there's this bit you did towards the end.  Going through and waving your fingers, shifting positions, reversing them, and basically making the itsy bitsy spider look like it should :)  the only think i can suggest is have more fun, that's probably hard to do with the camera on but it's the only thing I see missing in both the clips that I enjoy watching you in person.

The liquid... Holy straight lines batman!  your angles are sickness, f'n motion sickness, and those rails will make coke heads from the 70's jealous.  I'd say your footwork needs a smig improvement and try to bring your attention from time to time to places other than your fingers.

DOPE all around, can't wait to start biting it and calling it my own :0

I think were all learning friend....I feel extremely grateful to be a ripple in your pond.

As far as dancing outside of events, that's WHAT i'm ON!!!!  :)  I love tripping cops out, when they just drive by and see me practicing.  You know where I'm at so any time you wanna session let me know. 

Keep em coming...I learn a lot from ya.

Okay whatever you did at 4:01 in the 2nd clip you need to exploit that concept like crazy. There was so much potential in that 3 seconds. I know it was just a thread but the way it came together in space was futuristic. I'm going to try and steal it.
