Tom Baker’s Scarf

Hard to tell in the video, but it’s raining lightly outside. Which makes this trick far more difficult to hit clean that it should be.
Song is “Doctor Who Theme”. If you don’t know that, you should.

Swing Low
10/22/11
I’ve been doing that little “miss the string and make that weird jerky movement thing by snagging and releasing as it goes by” thing for as long as I can remember. I’ve seen a few other people doing stuff with it of late, so I decided to revisit it and turn it into something a little more current.
I feel like I’ve seen this before, but I don’t know if I have or if it just looks like I should have. That’s one thing about playing as long as I have…after a while, it’s really damn hard to remember what you’ve created, what you’ve seen, what you thought of but never smoothed out, etc. I’m pretty sure I’ve forgotten ten times as many tricks as I still know.
But anyway, this trick looks cool and feels nice. So, there you go.
