Thanks for uploading this Ffion. I wish I could grow a few inches in the next two weeks - my shortness is ruining the symmetry somewhat. Agree with all your points Laura. 'Back Ache' has always been a 'headache' in terms of messiness. Think the one on the film is even worse than usual as I didn't wait for the call & went to go into open ring too early - hance the added mess at the end. I'm up for any recommendations on how we make it better, as when done well it can look amazing. I'm not saying it's the snappiest version, but I remember Sheffield Steel's version looked OK last year & they seemed to do it a bit slower, & the set was a bit loser somehow too: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3PsYYf2rMgA Although watching this clip filled me full of encouragement - because other that that our dance is so much better now than there's was last year - as all the seem to do is fig 8 & curlies for half of it. So as long as they haven't improved at all (unlikely) - then we'll thrash them! :-) Hx Sent from my iPhone On 26 Feb 2014, at 11:29, "Laura Smyth" <laura_marie_smyth(a)hotmail.com> wrote: > Hey Ffion and other Ravens, > > Watched this again, and it seems much more impressive after a day or two! Looks like it's getting pretty slick. We mentioned a couple of things that we needed to improve after we watched it on Monday, those being: > > Fourth corner - swords being straight > Stand in guard - remember that it is happening > > But after watching this again, I was also thinking that Back Ache was looking a little messy. It looks as if we're all just piling round as quickly as we can. And whilst I think speed is good, I think that timing is better. Is there a way that we can time it so that each person does a sharp turn on each or every other beat? Is that what we are meant to be doing anyway??? > > That's all my feedback! > > Laura > > > From: ffion_coch(a)hotmail.com > > Date: Tue, 25 Feb 2014 22:59:18 +0000 > > To: team(a)towerravens.org.uk > > Subject: [Tower Ravens] Guess what, another video! > > > > Here's the last dance from Monday > > http://youtu.be/PanicNp0yZ4 > > > > Ffion x > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Tower Raven's mailing list > > team(a)towerravens.org.uk > _______________________________________________ > Tower Raven's mailing list > team(a)towerravens.org.uk
