Rate yourself at spinning!

You burned your back a few times, brother.

We can't have that happen, we still need you for "things".

Looks good to me, Simpi.  But again--and I stand by this--I'm not much of a "saber spin" guy.    I pretty much never practice, so... there ya go.

But... yeah--at least you're DOING them.  That is the way to learn.  If there was anything I could say to help inspire people with saber spins (or most anything else)... just friggin' DO the stuff, don't be afraid to do it wrong.  You WILL "do it wrong".  So just get over it and keep working TOWARD perfection.  Not as if anyone will ever attain it... but... just keep on doing it.

Ya add 0 to 0... ya get zero.  Ya keep adding *ONE* to the pile though... over time... .... ...... hmmmmm....

How ELSE did y'all think NCSCS came to be?  Filming it all in one day?!?

Great advice Nova. Hopefully lots of people read that and take it in. I know I have, thanks!

You bet.  Glad to help others as others have helped ME.    Pay it forward.

All I have to do is think at how many times I "failed" at doing:

* Saber tosses (mostly with staff)
* @Back hand passes
* oh gee, how about other crazy spinny/twisty tricks like B-TWISTS and things like pop 720 double and X-outs??

...and all of that is just plenty for me to know that... yes... in order to succeed--"fail", you must, first.  But I also rather think the word "Fail" should be renamed "Experience".

No, I've just broken enough sabers that I'm finally getting good at not breaking them.... Or I've just gotten more durable sabers now lol. The one's I'm using in this video are parksabers.

Do that in the dark!!

I'll do some more vids with lit up sabers soon enough! Also, I never hit the dog lol, one she's terrified of lightsabers... One of my mother in law's daycare kids smacked her with a stick, and now she's scared of anything that resembles something that might be used to smack her... poor dog. Two, I work a lot in tight spaces, so I'm good at not hitting things I don't want to hit... That's why I rate myself about a solid 8.
lol I'll do wi
