Combo ideas/ favourite combos

HannahElizabeth started this discussion · 2/5/2011

I've learnt a new move (the star - similar to the cupid) and was wondering if anyone has any good moves to do to come out of this? i don't quite know what to do afterwards so any combo ideas would be great (i couldnt find a picture apart from on wikipole but the link from that page went straight back to their home page so sorry I cant show you :S) Also what are your favourite combos? any move/spin :)

Can you do a butterfly? If you let your lower leg come behind the pole and reach down with your free hand you can get a split-grip and push up into a butterfly! Or if you can't do a butterfly yet, you can let your lower leg come behind the pole and reach down with your free hand, push your hips forward, and release the top hand (think one long straight line from free foot to free hand) into a Jasmine (Shooting Star on wikipole).

Ooo here is my current favorite combo wich includes the cupid. :) I begin in a split grip to apprentice to butterfly to cupid, then I go to shooting star except let go with both hands of the pole then into marley then dismount into a pole sit. :)

yes I can butterfly :) I'll try these out, thanks ladies Evarut - that sounds like a challenge, I havent done the move Marley yet but I'll definitely give the rest of it a go!

From cupid, you could go into any of these... butterfly marley kneehold pole splits hmmm, not sure what else.. but am interested to see what others come up with.

Sounds like something to try out once my muscles stop aching :)

I wish I could do the splits :( I'm working on it though so hopefully soon i'll be able to do down splits from cupid!
