This is pretty good. Is there a reason you've learnt it backwards? I've only seen it done backwads, Zan00 does it pretty well in one of his videos.

I've been teaching it to myself forwards, I can hold it for a few beats but it's pretty messy still, just one of those moves that takes a lot of practice.

Backwards was easier for me, not sure why. Progress was slow with this move, its still not perfect in the video but getting better =)

Clean, that isn't. Fully isolated, it appears to be. Congrats.

[Amitrix0]

Then I should make another video once it gets more comfortable =)

[miceskin]

That's the cleanest one I have seen so far. I have it down forwards, sometimes. . . . . hahaha

you defeated nick! hahahaha congrats

[scenethelite]

wow pretty good. I say you're accomplishing nick's challenge. I can't do that & in fact was gonna look for some tuts on it but seems to be the next elusive beastie.

@Amitrix0 There is a reason its easier backwards...

Most people are more comfortable with the forwards weave, non isolated, and because of this, theres more of a muscle memory to overcome going forwards.

Backwards, theres less muscle memory, so you don't get stuck in the habit. ^_^

I amend my statement below... while not perfect, thats good enough to be "clean", fine work!

That was really good and alot better than I can do! But I'm sorry and I really hate to be the one to point it out, but you break your isolation when switching sides... It's really really close though. Backwards does look easier haha

holy sh*t!!!! that's amazing!!! please make a tutorial!!!

[PoiMc]

Coming back to this I now understand why it's easier backwards than forwards. It works better with the bend in your elbow. In the backward one you can bend your elbow down so the hand can pass to draw a full unit circle, whereas on the forward one the elbow needs to bend up to let the hand pass, which is far more awkward.

I should really gt back to practicing this, but it takes a lot of time and there's so much else to learn, haha.

backwards has always been easier for me too im working on this one myself
