I'm just wondering how long it took people to master multitasking their sticks, aka doing different motions with two hands at the same time.

For example, crossers?

Whenever I feel down about it, I go and watch knivez or cleric to regain inspiration. Lol.

(P.S. GLOWSTICKS COME TODAY ^^".)

crossers can take a while, but once you get the idea, it's pretty simple. there are some really good tutorials on youtube for them if you just search huggy crosser

A lot of moves took me a LOOOOONG time to learn though (straightjackets, btb fountains... ugh). just stick with it and practice (IMG:http://www.glowsticking.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

and i just ordered some sticks this morning! (IMG:http://www.glowsticking.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

lol It takes time and practice, trying to string at 1st feels like you have a dead arm (your non dominate hand). Everything comes together with practice.

It took me about 2 days of practice. Break down the motions for each arm and dont forget to use your hands as guides.

I found that just constant practice with each hand works best. Also try switching up which arm is on top ( for huggys). I found that one side was more comfortable than the other.

Hahah its funny because I figure "oh, I can do butterfly crossers, so I'll just do a wrap with one of them and it'll go into itself."


Yeah, I was wrong. Hahah. Well I guess I'll just keep tryin' then.

I fought with crossers for almost 2 months.

Just keep working at it, you'll get them eventually.
