Demonstrating some contact staff techniques with a saberstaff. Just short clips at the moment, I am still getting used to the length and heft, and the modifications that make contact moves easier still need to be iterated upon. In any case, let me know what you think!

Just posted my first 2 tutorials for contact saberstaff. Starting with the very basics. They should be intuitive for most people so I added some application drills at the end.


Inward Hand Wrap

Inward: Up and In, Down and Out.
An inward spin goes up and in towards the centerline of the body, then down and out towards the sides.


Outward Hand Wrap

Outward: Up and Out, Down and In.
An outward spin goes up and out towards the sides, then down and in towards the centerline of the body.


Staff: UltraSabers Phantom V2
Blades: 29" Heavy Grade Blades
Grip: Tennis Grip and Rubber O-rings
End-weight: A small strip of discarded bicycle tyre inner tubing and the middle piece from a PVC threaded union


Let me know what you think! How can I make the next ones better?

Next two tutorials up. Rolling Balance and the Neck Wrap. Simple moves but crucial for many higher level techniques.

Combined with the previous Hand Wraps we now have everything needed to learn the Half Steve!

Short tutorial for the reverse fishtail. These tend to be easier to learn compared to the forward fishtail.

Working on the a short Halo one too. Should have that up soon-ish.

Tutorial for the Halo. This basic move is easily added to any spinning routine, and is an essential building block to many advanced contact staff techniques. Depending on your background you might know this as something else though.
