Description
Whether we’re tying for an audience of hundreds or just one, there are plenty of reasons we gravitate toward dynamic transition sequences. While we live for the thrill, we have also taken great pains to make sure we live to tie again another day, and we love sharing our secret sauce. In this crash course, learn about the rigging, body mechanics and aerial kinesiology of our approach to dives, flips, rolls, and more, with discussion and demos for multiple categories of drops. Then, we will put these concepts to the test as we guide you through our favorite aerial barrel roll drop from face up to gyaku ebi. It’s an embarrassment of intel and a barrel of fun whether or not you take the tumble yourself (prereqs
apply to fly).
Prerequisites
Participation is for tying partners who already have solid education and experience with standard suspension transitions, but participation is not required to observe.
