    [video=youtube;CAmhEPThu0Y]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAmhEPThu0Y&list=UUV4Jb5OW0xljdsSMNZ7f-vw&feature=plcp[/video] [B]BREAKDOWNS (use vid as reference, some of the parts and flourishes are hard to get just by reading these):[/B] 1. Twisted sonic 34-23 > Middlearound reverse .5 23-TF > FL Middlearound .5 TF-23 > Pass 23-34 > Pinkyaround reverse 34-34 2. Charge 34 > FLTA 34-TF ~ Palmspin .5 > Index swivel P1-12 3. Charge 34 > FLTA 34-TF ~ Palmspin .5 > Palm down index around (old school feel/look, like "anti-gravity around" style) P1-P1 > "Ayatori throw" (The toss you do in an ayatori trick kinda feel, but spinning in reverse direction), catch in P1234 after 1.0 revs but with wrist curled as seen so that you get that extra .5 in without having to throw it much faster/longer than you would for a .5 rev > TF Charge rev > FLTA rev > Indexbak ~ FLTA rev > Indexbak 4. Sonic 34-24 > Sonic 24-14 > Flush sonic 14-12 (Use thumb and pinky as the fingers that hold during the .5 rev > Charge rev .5 12 into charge .5 12 (like a smooth flourish b/c the hand turn makes it fluid and not direction-changy)> Indexaround rev .5 12-TF > TF charge rev > FLTA rev TF-34 > ThumbIndexMiddleRingAround 1.5 34-34 > ThumbIndexMiddleRingAround 1.5 34-P34 > Pinkyaround rev P34-34 > Charge 34 > FL Pinkyaround 34-P and immediately let slip into 23 slot with a .5 charge > pass 23-12 > Charge 12 > Ext. TA T12>12 5. Bust x 7, not a linkage but included since I've been working on busts and 9 is my current record, just an extra little thingy in there. 6. FL Ringaround P3-P3 > Ringswivel P3-23 > Charge 23 > FL Pass rev (sorta like an around .5 but with the push more FL) 23-12 > Twisted sonic rev 12-23 ~ pass (aka "Twisted sonic fall", which is a misnomer) > Palm down Ringaround .5 34-T3 (middle finger curled in) > Palm down Ringaround rev .5 T3-34 > Inverse Twisted sonic 34-13 ~> Indexbak to T12 7. Pinkybak rev 34-34 ~ Ext. FLTA Bust Release TF-P > Pinkyswivel P-P ~ FLTA TF-TF ~ Palmspin .5 > Pinkyswivel P-12 > FL Scissorspin 12-P > Pinkyswivel P-P ~ FLTA TF-TF 8. Demon's Sonic 24-12 > Indexaround rev .5 12-TF > TF Charge rev > FLTA Rev TF-TFP > Rex Trick TFP-P > FL Indexaround Rev P1-P1 > Palmspin rev .5 > Pinkybak rev P-34 (then turn palm from down>up using that charge-like thing I mentioned earlier) > Ringaround rev .5 34-P3 > Horizontal open palm Ringspread x 3 P3-P > Pinkyswivel P-23 ~ Midbust 23-123 Enjoy! If (when) anything regarding my notation was confusing, just ask. For those that don't know, when I say P I mean palm, TF obviously is Thumbflap as usual, when I say something like P3 for a slot I mean held with palm and ring finger, and when I say something like P34 as a slot I simply mean held with palm, ring, and pinky fingers. Criticism/comments/questions welcomed. :D

    Smooth, stylish, fresh linkages. Awesome. I also like that you are trying out a new angle.

    Good tricks, bad lights. Could you film against something less dark? Perhaps put some light coloured paper down or something?

    I don't have any, I felt the pen color was sufficient contrast, as any brighter would mean a ton of flicker. It's sitting spinning....so I don't really know how or where I would put down light colored paper, unless I buy and wear like white pants or something...

    kk will do them now then :3 might take a bit, and you're gonna wanna use the vid as well as them to understand some of the more loosely defined/flourish stuff

    Kk edited breaks into OP, hopefully they aren't TOO too confusing (I know, I notate things probably weird and much different than you would. If you use the vid it shouldn't be too bad though, if still is just ask). Generally it's gonna sound/seem way more complicated than it is.
