Moves for Move Monkeys

[BenTCM]

Hey everybody!

I am a HUGE move monkey. I love moves like the clip shift, one hand popover, ect... I am looking more more cool moves like those, but I do not like ones that are TOO flourishy. Any suggestions?

You might like flickdrift it is nice, but does require a table and it is angle sensitive. But it is a great more once you get it down.

It's angel sensitive? What - do you break a few halos or something when you do it?

Sorry - couldn't resist.

What about `By Forces Unseen` ? It`s a book with incredible hard, not too flourishy, moves .

Learn the cull. Seriously. It's the thing where it's super easy to do, but effing dificult to master. You want to see a superb routine that utilizes the cull? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpzEET-yNHk starts at 2:38.

Since I've stopped performing regularly, I've found myself becoming more and more obsessed with moves from Erdnase. I think anyone who wishes to claim the title "master move monkey" should get all of the Erdnase material down.

Yah man I love the cull. I do the roadrunner cull by kostya kimlat

I will definitely check out By Forces Unseen! Sounds sweet!

Any others before I make my final decision?

I second erdnase.

I second By Forces Unseen, third Erdnase, and recommend Richard Turners' ,"Shifs, Hops, and Magical Passes." The Turner One Handed shift is a fun move to practice but will take a TON of practice before it is in any way practical for a performer. What more could a Move Monkey ask for!

Why collect car parts that do not fit together?

Why collect car parts that do not fit together?

because the more care parts you have the more cars you can make.

Why collect car parts that do not fit together?

Here's my very brief thoughts:

1. If people like cars, let them do whatever the hell they want to do relating to cars.
2. If people want to collect car parts that don't fit together, let them do that as well.
3. Generally, I think said part collectors are guys experienced with what they're "collecting". If some guy who doesn't even know how to change a tire starts getting on "Yahoo! Answers" or something trying to collect a bunch of parts, well...

But... Erdnase and BFU are your best bets. Apocalypse also has a bunch of hard stuff scattered between it's volumes.
