Loved the purple duo.  Very innovative stuff. Just love Asian twirling all together. Their use of rolls is amazing, and their ability to synchronize it among many twirlers is my favorite.

I recognized Noriko Takahashi there but not any of the others featured. The Japanese twirling stars I know about (Chiho Honjo, Seiishi Inagaki, Chiharu Tachibana) were probably still little kids in 1991. That was excellent 2-baton as well.

Also, that team of eight missed a few catches. But, they still did a terrific job, as a whole.

Wow! The duo following Ms. Takahashi couldn't have been more synchronized if they were identical twins.
