dude... i just wanted a rum and coke ... :P

before i get slated for slight humour ima just say that i LOVE all these vids , ive recently started to learning to bartend, mixing etc and im finding that a few of these are keeping me interested during the day and my boss smiling .. providing im not dropping too many bottles xD

Glad you're enjoying the videos and more importantly that they're making your shift more interesting. That's what got me started too.

Just remember when you're first starting out as a bartender to learn your drinks and give rockstar service first, flair comes second:)

where are you ranked, as a bartender in the flair world....?

[MangoMyers]

Good question. I haven't competed in an FBA event in 2 years, so I'm not sure where my ranking would be. I can say that I've competed in both the US and Canada, and taken everything from last place (my first comp!) to first place. I've competed against Rodrigo Delpech, Rodrigo Cao, Levi Donaldson, Martin Janica, Ati Tedesco, and many other exceptional flair bartenders. And they all kicked my butt. However, my goal isn't to be the best flair bartender in the world, but the best flair teacher...

awesome video! Instantly subscribed. You got a very clear way of explaning and slowly and repeatingly showing the moves. You also explain it from micro to macro: how do you make a single move more dramatic and how does your routine function as a whole?

@MangoMyers i agree, being good at flair does not make you a good bartender.

You are a master of your craft. Unbelievable... I've only seen a couple of your videos and I don't even know where to start. You're so good it's almost depressing to watch lol keep up the great work!

i hope you can answer my questions ^^
