I'm going to film one right now. Can't promise quality because I've been pretty busy with classes lately but I think I still need to make myself take part in this.

*Edit*

Alright, here it is. Enjoy.



I added outside arm rolls.

Hello all!

Welcome back to the game! I know it's difficult to get started back up again when we've had such a nice long break. Thanks to the couple of you who made that extra effort and found time to jump right back into it.

This week's winner is: claybody with the Inverted Circle!


Congrats, claybody!

This is a great move that is taking some of the past things we were working on but also great timing for getting back into the swing of things. This move seems to be fairly self explanatory especially to those who have been playing all along. Just make sure not to short cut the move. Notice how the shapes your hands, wrists and arms make as they cross over each other (during the transfer) really add to the whole look. You'll want to check in a mirror, reflection or on video to see how this is looking when you're practicing this. Even though only one direction is required to do for your submission, don't forget to get used to both ways at some point.

For next week submission, it's completely open! Anywhere you'd like to go from here is fine. I also wanted to add that since we are pretty far into the game now, that also means that there isn't much time left. We will do 3 more weeks (the last submission/ending move will be due on May 15th). This is partially due to the interest in the multiball FTL and it seems to be the general thought to have it in summer. Having this FTL wrapped up by then was also expressed and I agree. I also think it would be a good thing to have a few weeks break before that starts up for those here that are interested and want some time to work on their multiball a little. No reason we can't have a summer challenge involving this routine that is due by the end of summer. So you guys can keep having to work on something, if you'd like. ^_^ Hang in here for just a few more weeks.

You have between now and next Tuesday (May 1) to submit your next entry. Your video should include:
1. Palmspin
2. Ratchet
3. Rotating Claw Iso
4. 20 Finger Roll
5. Finger Flurry Iso Variation
6. Vertical Spiral Halfpipe
7. Inside Arm Rolls
8. Circle into Prayer Stall
9. Chest Roll Curl
10. Half & Half
11. Inverted Circle
12. Your submission for next week's move

Good job to those who immediately jumped back in and looking forward to seeing others who can next week too! :D

ah yes. the palm-palm part of the name threw me off for some reason...and overlooked the name. off to fix. I'll stick to inverted circle for game purposes. Thanks!
(lol ahhh I got it, I think this move has the appearance of a inverted prayer circle....this is where my brain went with that. lol)

Well, I think I'm going to go ahead and call the game done for the year. I know that May is an absolutely crazy month with finals and various things going on before summer transitions.

Thanks to eyedea and claybody for submitting something for us all. So, I'm going to say that both of their moves get this week and round out the end of this year's FTL! If you keep this routine in your practice, you can choose either (or both) moves and then put on a nice little ending of your choosing.


Thank you to ALL who played at any point of the game. We had a great time and I was really impressed with the amount of effort that all put in. Even if you were just following or playing on your own along with the game, great job! You all made it into a great learning experience which is exactly what it's supposed to be. I was amazed to watch the progress over the weeks. It was pretty evident! :D

If you want some more FTL challenge immediately, you could always pick up some batons (or use sticks) and jump into the isobaton FTL going on right now. I know FTL multiball is coming soon also!!

HUGS to all! WELL DONE! Woot! You guys are awesome!!! <3
