The thing with the dragon stalls that I've seen is that you have to stick your butt up to rotate the cross the leg.
Can you do it without doing so? Any link of a proper dragon stall that I can see?

I once showed to my girlfriend a video of a guy doing a bunch of ducks n dives. I was all amazed and inspired, but she thought the guy was having seizures :)

In the first minute or two of this video, you can see Jon and I do a couple of good ones. Jon's are better than mine, but I guess mine are okay.

Edit: It would help if I actually gave you a link, huh? :P

Steeping far leg over is ugly. That is the only trick that looks like crap no matter who does it. Double ducking usually looks bad but if its done right it can look great. Spinning PDX DLO can look bad too but I think Lon can make it look sex (but he makes everything look great).

disagree. I love symple swirls, I think strings dense with symple swirl tricks are riveting! on the edge of your seat stuff

reverse swirls I respect but don't particularly like, they just look too stressful for a fun sport. that sounds dumb, oh well.

I totally regret saying that :oops: That was a while ago, and I developed a new appreciation of that trick. They're so styley. Reverse swirls are styley too. They're actually much easier than regular swirls for me. Not very stressful at all. You'll warm up to them eventually.
