Posting because the new polers need to know her

I posted this on facebook but am posting it here also. Most of those new to the scene have probably never heard of Sarah Cretul but you certainly know her moves. We would have no twisted grip without her, no flag mount, no pretzel spin. She was the first I ever saw fly into a spin...and I mean FLY. This video was posted to youtube around 2008. You may need to log into YT to view it as it is age restricted. Think...this was 4 years ago...before the first USPDF competition ever existed. She still has stuff in this video that makes my head spin. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=5M4N6AxHjks In searching YT I found this video of her from just a few months ago. If you do not scream at 2:45 and then again at about 3:50 there may be something wrong with you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cxD-yFgo8E

I love both Sara Cretul and Shadow. I've never met Sara but I've followed her from when she first surfaced on the scene many years ago. I met Shadow in Detroit and she was such a super sweet and amazing performer. I was just sitting there watching everyone else and she walked right up to me and decided to teach me something. I've taken that move and taught it to my own students. I think of her every time I teach it or I see my students perform it. 😉

What a lot of people do not know about Shadow is that she comes to Cleveland a few times a year and works with teenage (and younger) kids teaching them pole and aerial skills at Jasmine Dragons. She has performed with them on a few occasions and even came into town to be in a parade last year.
