First Brass Monkey!

This is the first time I got the entire Brass Monkey move from the half Bracket...with both hands on the pole, then supporting most of my weight in the leg hook.

What do I do with my arms once I can fully support my weight with the leg hook and don't have to cheat a little by using my armpit to hold a little weight?

I want to credit tkaelin23 and Boomloulou. These two polers were the first ones with videos I saw that did the move this way.

I also want to thank Simplly Sweet, because I watched her do this move this way and learned the "tuck" trick from her...pulling in the legs "in" in a forward invert to better control the throw momentum in the legs.

Thank You! In this case, it was a move I had given up on for a long time...then I came back to it later.
