@Tai Chi Chuan Wijchen - Thank you! @S2mikey - Thank you! Of course I do, just like all of us . Sometimes I need 1 take and it's done and sometimes I need 25 takes! @finlayfox - looks smooth and unique, I like it!

Hahaha, well in that case, I'm sure I've entered the creepy-uncle-zone without knowing it! Or maybe I have went on to visiting different places and festivals so the rest of the audience has grown with me. Haha yeah usually the bigger events now are age specific and even serve alcohol hahaha so there are still some events that aren’t so bad...

Tomorrow is New Tattoo Day! Feeling pretty stoked, chose a song to match the mood. Also, this was a good song to practice tosses to.

Sometimes I need 1 take and it's done and sometimes I need 25 takes! @finlayfox - looks smooth and unique, I like it! Matt - what saber and blade length are you using? Is it a mid grade or ultraedge? Im trying to decide what the best combination is for spinning. I like the look and feel of the ultra edge midgrade but Im sure they weigh more than the basic silver midgrade blades.

Thanks again guys! @S2mikey - Hi, it's a ultraedge midgrade blade and I cut it to 28" because I'm pretty short and I do a lot of inside practice with very limited space. The wall thickness and weight should be the same as the silver midgrade blades. I feel no difference between them. The saber is a Skylar from Sabertrio (sorry in advance, I'm not sure if it's ok to talk about other companys here). The dimensions are very similar to the Ultrasabers Initiate V3 (great cheap saber for spinning btw.). I think everybody has a different taste. You can try things like swapping the pommel, add weight with coins or other stuff to them. Cut blades and so on. Have fun experimenting. I think I'll try a longer blade again soon.

I was always wondering about the ultra-mid versus the basic silver blades and I dont feel much difference either. Good call onthe 28" blade. I also get stuck indoors for much of the winter and 32" is scary with too much stuff in the house, lol. I might order a 28" blade just to have one around.

Yeah - been working indoors lately which really helps to repeat a lot of the basic moves and even some advanced ones over and over. Im trying to add more finger rolls, hand switches, extra spins in transition, etc, etc. All that stuff. Ill try to get an indoor video posted here soon once get something decent looking.
