At last, I've acquired and uploaded the videos from the Friday presentations. I've included the names of each trick in the descriptions, along with the assignment.
I hope my group mates don't mind my sharing this (if any of you do, please let me know and I'll remove your information from it). The assignment was simply to construct a routine using the tricks we'd been taught in tumbling and acro, with neutral character and no music. The neutral aspect was especially challenging, but
I am not an aerialist. Despite this fact, I think I managed to pull off a decent routine. A few nicely difficult tricks in there (handstand, forward roll, hanging beat into front balance, drop to angel). I did not manage a barrel roll or consistent toe hang, as I'd hoped, and though I managed to get a pop-off (dropping backwards to pike from sitting) there was nowhere to fit in the routine. My apologies for the lighting, this is how South Wing is set up. I also needed to use this particular trapeze so I'd have enough space on the ropes and above the floor.
As I mentioned on Facebook, there are some really talented students in the class. I was thoroughly impressed with many of my classmates, and with the clever transitions they managed to pull through some very difficult tricks. Wish I could show them all here...
