Outside Leg Hang

MommaBear started this discussion · 9/29/2010

This is also called a Gemini, right? Does the name of this change based on where you hold? Sometimes I hold in by my knee pit, and other times I almost hold it like a Scorpio Does where or how you hold this change the name of the move or is it a Gemini (outside leg hang) no matter what? http://www.poledancingexpression.com/gemini-outside-leg-hang.html In my hunt for pictures I think I may have just answered my own question; this site is saying the straighter leg version is an "Outside Fallen Angel". http://poledancingforfun.blog.co.uk/tags/outside-fallen-angel/ Still thought I would post it just in case because I cannot find Outside Fallen Angel on the PDF Directory or Wikipole 🫡

the outside fallen angel picture is actually an inside leg hang (called a descending angel or scorpio). it's a different leg that's hooked...

I get so confused with the name Gemini or Scorpio that I now call them inside leg hand or outside leg hang. People grip them in different parts of their leg but it is still the same move. Veena even uses her foot/ankle on the inside leg hang.

I thought it looked off, but it said OUTSIDE leg hang 😂 Whoops 😳 I get so confused with the name Gemini or Scorpio that I now call them inside leg hand or outside leg hang. People grip them in different parts of their leg but it is still the same move. Veena even uses her foot/ankle on the inside leg hang. Okay, so there is no "rule" on where to hold it, just so long as your holding with your outside leg, your doing an outside leg hang or Gemini. These names can get complicated and I wasn't sure if the technicality of where you held it changed it into something else. I just want to try and get the names down too. Thanks Chem!
