Dude you cut your hair! :ahhh:

I really like the new tutorial. I think I've mentioned before that your folding line tutorial was the single most valuable learning moment in my own CJ journey so far. Forever grateful for that!

The only thing I'd have suggested adding to this one would have been to learn it "both hands, both directions".

One thing which it might have been worth mentioning is a few tips for controlling the ball in the palm once it has left the fingers. Also the different sizes and speeds of circle that can be made.

But that's just nit-picking, it's a really good tutorial. Focused and not too much extraneous chatter. It's nice to see a planned tutorial video. I think people will find this helpful.

You definitely get my vote! As a beginner I am impressed with your skill and talent, but even more so for your gift of taking the lesson slow and easy. Too often, I think instructors forget they are teaching someone less knowledgeable, and rush the information.

Thanks again and good luck on the contest... you deserve it!
