Using a clubslinger (sam’s trick) as a petal in flowers.

1-petal prospin vs. 1-petal prospin
Opposite-direction hands and then Same-direction hands.

Spent my weekend having fun making this, so if you like it, give it a share 🙂

Includes my most recent fishtail work with 1, 2, and 3 clubs. There’s some nice patterns and combinations so keep your eyes peeled 😉

Found this grip at Vulcan in June, played with it a bunch in July… and shown a few folks who all had fun with it.

This is a rework of a shape matrix of even-petaled flowers that shows the driving style of the left hand (columns) paired with a driving style of the right hand (rows).

We get Basic Shapes- Both hands performing the same driving style with the prop.

Hybrid Shapes- Each hand is performing a different driving style.

Monorythmic- Props are doing the same number of rotations (moving at the same speed).

Polyrhythmic props- Props are doing a different number of rotations (moving at a different speed).

Link to most of these driving styles shown piece-by-piece:
