i saw corey hartung do this several years ago and it absolutely floored me. What an awesome skill.
it is a cool idea…..I don’t think it is a very nice looking skill though….a bit like the side somi….no matter how well it is done, it just does not look “pretty”….I definitely would rather see a routine with a unique skill than a “cookie cutter” routine anyday though
