Love the vids. I make didges out of PVC, and enjoy your technique tips. However, pardon the use of language..

The vids are too fucking short! Put them all together in one vid! Otherwise, great stuff!

You don't breathe right. When you breathe in allow your stomach to push-out, thus relaxing your diaphragm, and allowing more air to enter your lungs. You can place your hand on your abdomen and feel it being pushed away as your abdomen rises. Your shoulders should actually drop a bit. When you breathe in you shoulders are practically beside you ears! You are seriously limiting lung capacity. When you breathe out you navel should come back toward your spine.
