Are you talking about her finishing move?
I literally favorited this video minutes ago… lol
To me, it’s a bridged scorpio but switches into a gemini using her body instead of the legs, then into the bomb… the gemini part is really quick, though. That’s what I see…

Lol thanks everyone! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
bebeduckie – I’m not really sure what I did different… I actually did the dismount first. I pretended I was going to do a forward roll off the pole, but slowly – got close to the floor but not touching it. Gripped the pole, curled my back to get my shoulder on the pole, and very slowly "rolled". I just kinda ended up in the position and was able to hold it on the way down, and it was one of those "ah-ha!" moments. I jumped up and tried the mount from standing and did it!
But the grip was a big part – I’ve been playing with the other ones for a while, and this grip felt best for me. So it’s called the respect grip, then? I’ve been calling it twisted grip or the Felix grip. (meh… labels). But it doesn’t put as much pressure on my boney collarbone, so that’s why I like it.

I saw someone put up a link to Yannori’s blog, but she put up a Part 2 – she also included links to other blogs that had opinions on the topic:

Just in case anyone wanted to check it out… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Yeah but I was thinking beyond what the names are, like if it’s transitional, floorwork, spins, holds, a trick, etc. other than spins vs. moves vs. dance steps like what WikiPole has. I use Wikipole all the time… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_tongue.gif But that might be getting too nit-picky, I dunno…

Lol great job! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif *goes to go watch video*

There’s another thread floating around here somewhere about lotions… I’ll see if I can remember what it said.
If your skin is dry like that, I would definitely stop using the dry hands. Your skin doesn’t grip well if it’s extremely dry, and plus if it’s peeling like that, it probably isn’t healthy to dry it out more… I’m no expert, though.
You CAN use lotion, just put it on several hours before you pole, or even immediately afterwards. You’re just slick if it’s a fresh coat – if your skin has had time to absorb it and your clothes rub it off a bit, you should be fine. I think the thread also said using water-based lotions is best (as opposed to oil-based).
Once again, I’m no expert… hopefully someone else will chime in, here

I think of it as transitional but more specifically floorwork… but that’s just me *shrug*
I’m tempted just to launch into a glossary of pole terms, but I shall resist. Does such a thing exist already? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif

Empy – if you want something more descriptive then maybe call it the Remi layback or the Remi release? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif (looks more like a "release" than a "layback" to me, but that’s just my opinion)
Yeah there was an unofficial vote on Day’s Facebook pics of this move and Remi was the winner… I just thought it was funny, we had this huge string of comments trailing under the pic https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
Oh, I’ve pretty much gotten over the pain aspect of this move on the lower ankle – I still can’t grip enough to stay up there every single try, though. But it’s progress! I want to do it at the pole jams at USPDF and NOT have to take my boots!

Yay! Good job! Nice abs, too! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I’m going! And at least one of my roommates is, too. We have another pole jam that night, but that one starts earlier and we’re planning on hitting both! Does that make it a pole crawl??? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Lol I put lesson in quotes because it is a how-to but it’s not one of the formal lessons that you have to pay for https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Ditto to what charley said, Terp! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I was applauding the whole time!

Veena did do a video on this, just not a "lesson":
