[thepeaceman14]

@goPlayMW2orsomthing u suck my left testicle this was 4 years ago we got better fast more adaptive and this was even an off year for us cuz we had more than half a team leavin so u can suck it

[GoPlayMW2OrSomething]

man they suck, our schools drill team is way better and its half of it is freshman

[FaireyBaby93]

Im learning my numbers for this routine rite now!! WEEE!! Its changed a lil since then though :D

[Mhf2Lok]

Omg how many stratford's are there theres one in conneticut too lol

[AnakateH8]

There's a Stratford in Oklahoma, too.

[rams103mig]

it was good but there was a couple of mess up, nd only one type of spin weres the wristbreakers nd razors......  njrotc is a whole lot better

[acdcjake]

very nice but i only saw cock spins the whole time....wheres the razors?armbreakers?rollover flipovers?...

[landshark1215]

several of us wanted to add more types of spins to the routine while I was there, as a matter of fact, we wanted to change the entire routine. the less experienced cadets never wanted to learn the harder spins, and none of the leadership wanted to drastically change the routine, so nothing ever happened. that's basically the same routine they used for years, with a few minor changes.

[Malachiluke]

only 1 type of spin?

[alwaysfly101]

i luv STRATFORD thats mii high school

[SentaBlack]

Is this the Stratford High in Goose Creek, South Carolina??

[ushdr]

yep

[missourisfinest2011]

aww dis was at regionals wasnt it?? i am on a drill team now...Northeast but yea dat routine was hott!!

[RearAdmirel]

This was a pretty decent routine thanks to the formations and precision. But unfortunatly there of course wasnt any difficulty. I think the best part of the routine was the commander spinning then reporting out. You all have to learn more difficult stuff such as Double-Hand or triples. Come on you guys are an ARMY JROTC Drill Team.

[doowstados]

M-1's and M-14's do that to a routine lol

I agree though could have been harder.

[doowstados]

Interesting team. 4 squads of 4, odd.

[mrdistraction]

Well a squad is actually called a flight, if one person from a flight is gone, the whole flight stands down and the group does it with 3 flights only

[doowstados]

Its called a flight in Airforce JROTC, not Army which I'm in.

[doowstados]

And btw, I know this isn't regulation, but most schools do it with 3 squads, which is the regulation rule unless the platoon is over a certain amount of people. This isn't regulation though, so it doesn't matter. I just found it odd, most schools use less people in order to limit the amount of things that can go wrong lol

[lochsier]

look at their alignment, their percision. They are all on step, one harmonius unit. Lets face it, drill isnt exciting all he time, but this was technical the best there is at that compotion. I m curently a squad leader at SHS, and i gotta say, 1st sergent had to have run you guys ragid...

[doowstados]

Not really...their alignment was really bad at times

[kaiftw]

it wins first so were not complaining

[spicy122]

hey hold on how come you guys wernt at states?

[13JunkYarDog13]

my school only has a 12-man. u guys have a bigger team so i can sympythise with the fact that you cant teach 16 ppl to do difficult spins without a)dropping b)colliding or c)having the 'pop corn' effect. so u take advantage of the fact that a bigger team can do 'fancier' movements. the drill team commander was good tho, id like to challenge him to a battle circle.

[doowstados]

Commander wasn't that good really.

[jellypod]

this is it?...just weird stops and formations?..... BORING

[combattruk]

u guys haft to put difficult stuff in tha routine. there is something called originality. good luck

[NavyDrillMachine]

Too many power stops in your routine but you guys really did kill that area usage and percision. Cudos on how big your platoon is.

[Castor112]

This was nice but ur whole routine consisted of 12 o' clocks, and flip flops. you have a larger trick team than to my school though.

[ironclad55]

nice precision, but where is the difficulty?

[spicy122]

it was prety good ive seen worse buti think you need to put more complex spins in the routine.... nice percision though.... it could have been beter

[heathersolos]

Amazing how little things change. I was on Stratford's Drill Team 93 - 95. I recognized a lot of the routine. Overall, good job guys.

[Radaration123]

can it be anymore obvious? Police State is written all over the whole thing

[kaurifleman]

very good i liked all the different formation that were put in

and also the uniforms tight ass very nice

all i can say is timing and put more spins in it other than just that one spin, and instead of having commander do what he did at the end have like him and 3 other do some kind of a cool salute out

good job

[armychick15]

holy shit man! im in cadets but fuck that was awesome!! HOLLA!!!! but ye cadence is a BIG thing..its you HEARTBEAT! you need a heartbeat man! but good job! congrats

[spicy122]

thats a big ass platoon... but its ok i guess

[soccergirl1992]

timing's a little off..

[themelonx]

well, there were a lot of formations. That was one of the boringest routines I've ever seen. I mean, you guys made it to championships and all you guys do is alpha.. a lot of the alpha's were sloppy too. the commander wasn't that great either and he was spinning to fast and slowed down.

[koolarmychick]

lol yeah u guys are good u guys are good at staying on step but more spinning the rifle lol so what kind of rifle is that we use air rifle 853 lol how about a 1-hand lol

[ddrfrk]

wow alex found this out of pure randomness sup. Lets get some music done

[drillgod]

we were at that comp. we got 4th overall, to bad our ex. got 12th, that was our lowest placement, well anyway a little movement variety wouldnt hurt but overall great routine

[fireangeldte]

Your uniforms looks like NGA's.

[voodooritual]

Good job you guys, but make sure you stay in cadence. Thats a REALLY big thing. I enjoyed your spinning solo :D.

[roberto062791]

There is only ! soin? Dang thats boring but you got goot alignment. N i like how you snap the rifle! It sounds cool. Good Job!

[RebelSoaDChick8]

Yay! We rock. Well, ya'll do.

[chronoserpent]

That was pretty good! The routine was kinda simple, especially how you only have one spin, as previously mentioned. But you guys are very well disciplined and are well practiced. Good job! How well did you do at that competition?

[sweetgirlofinnocence]

Still nice, I am in Airforce Jrotc we are going to start a rifle team soon...So I find it nice. I just can't wait...I think I permanently switched from arkansas flag on colour guard team to rifle so...I'll be the only chick on my team...with a rifle...they pick on me but hey...its worth being the only 9th grader on a upper lvl colour guard thats not freshmen... yay now im in 10th~

[krentzsabre]

Good formations but the spin gets boring. And note i said "spin"...because you only use one...gah

[Error91101]

Indeed...But I'm going to fix that this year.

[wansboro577]

ya i agree, nice though, with more spins it could be first place
