Transitioning out of marley?

miss fern started this discussion · 9/7/2009

Hey girls and guys! Just wondering if anyone has any ideas of what moves I can link to a marley? (http://www.triagedesign.co.uk/wikipole/images/b/b6/Marley.jpg) I get into it from a cupid/star/princess (something like http://www.triagedesign.co.uk/wikipole/images/thumb/6/6f/Star.jpg/200px-Star.jpg) - and get out of it by going into a shooting star (http://www.triagedesign.co.uk/wikipole/images/thumb/b/b9/Shootingstar.jpg/200px-Shootingstar.jpg) but I'm tired of this combo. 🙂 Actually - I'd like to learn ANY new combos, I feel like I'm getting a bit repetitive now. All suggestions welcome!

Ummm. Maybe a Knee Hold or Superman? Your legs are pretty well in the position for it... all you have to do is get those hands free and back onto the pole. I usually start with the bottom hand onto the pole and then once i feel secure I can grab onto the top, then you can flip ur leg to a Superman or push that bottom knee onto the pole for a Knee Hold. Lemme know how it works out! 😁

I just saw a vid in which sarah cretul drops from marley straight into scorpio (inside leg hang). It's at about 2:58 in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H28UQcXDGyo&feature=related. *edit: In this vid she does the same move, but slower: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnUG4Z9mwNk at 3:46* She got into the marley from side climb, which is pretty much the same as from cupid/star/princess.

I was gonna suggest the same thing as E. Just make sure you try dropping into your scorpio slowly till you get the hang of it. I do it all the time and it does look pretty sweet when you can make dramatic drop...good luck to you!!!

Oh that sounds exciting! I really want to try it - but both fo those vids says "this video has been removed by the user". Does anyone know any other vids that demonstrate the marley into scorpio?

Yeah I noticed that too : ( Here's a vid I just did for you using the shooting star into the scorpio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mLF1-cRXtQ. It's basically the same concept cause you really just have to let the upper body drop and get the inside arm hooked around the pole. Good luck girlfriend 😀
