Tutorial Request #13: 4 Clubs (Basic Fountain Pattern)

Title says it all. I learned a few new things about my editing program as I made this-- cool!

In regards to the "to tilt or not to tilt" the club when learning four. It's my opinion/observation that I don't CONSCIOUSLY need to try to turn/angle it. It just kinda does it on its own as needed if I concentrate more on the other stuff (like throw height and the inside outside circle moton with my arms). I think the footage right around 6:07 shows this "natural" tendency best. Still, take what I say as a starting point and go from there doing what feels best to you.

Oh, it should go without saying, but... this video only covers the basics on proper INITIAL training. Once you've mastered this video's content, you should move on your own to conquer more and more catches before moving on to attempting any 4 club tricks.

The one problem I have is catching 2 clubs in one hand from anything over a single spin throw - have you covered this in any of your vids? If not can you take on another request? Thanks :)

this tutorial is awesome! covers all the basics, and the details that add up to being able to juggle 4 clubs! This is one of those tricks I have just started to work on, and I thought that It would be a ton easier than it actually is... But this definitely helped me get some of the details in my head!

Thanks Chris!
