Bent-knee butterfly

Like Not Bubba in reverse... like the rev-whirl stepping set thread the other week... but in reverse. so the bag goes under your ankle and thigh at the same time then catch in a clipper... does anyone do this?

i've hit it stepping same, stepping op and symposium... I think it's very cool and stylish

has anyone seen/heard of this being done?

I did a few of them shortly after I made that topic, but I found them hard on my knee so I gave them up. I might give them another shot when I'm through with physio.

I don't think I've seen them elsewhere, nice work. Think you can get the set?

ahh, i tried the set but the only times i got it clean the bag ended up too far in front of me... i think the sets a bit above my play level anyway at the moment.

i also thought of doing a rev whirl after the dex.... like bring your leg across the bag and once u've spotted it throw in a rev. whirl dex.... but too far beyond me also. this would be pretty easy to 'the' as well

cool to see someone else doing it, i really like it symposium hehehe

I think I've been doing that trick and variations for many years. I've also done some stuff with the reverse of that trick, which is shockingly similar to a barraging set without the first dex.

See also my dexless atomic sets which is the same concept applied to atomic sets.

I think all of these are cool concepts, but are not additional adds,or anything. I actually don't even count the dexless dex, making the bent knee clipper version one add less than the regular, easier version.

This is definately one of my favorite zero add embellisments. I had been calling it reverse reverse whirl.

Aaron put a few of them in his san diego jam video.

You can see my version of the trick in the san diego jam video.
