    Voted for Sankaku. Was very smooth, but JC and Huroni were very close. Huroni's was too short, and i just didn't like things about JC's combo. And Baaron stopped.

    Baaron had he best linkage and difficulty. +1

    All in all, it was aight. Spinning feels...unsure to me. Style's aren't developed enough and linkage isn't confident. I don't know, maybe it's just me. JC's spinning seems the most confident.

    But I see improvement!

    JC, your fingers are looking better. I like how you have finger problems to. It's nice not being the only one. Heh.

    i liked JC's combo alot +1
    baaron had those big pauses when he used difficult linkage/tricks so eh if he didn't pause i would of given him the vote

    baaron, very nice tricks, lots of difficulty, but too many difficult, and not enough content. JC, nice smoothness, but i guess...style doesnt appeal to me?...i think it was that wrist around thing sad.gif it really was quite good though. sankaku, kind of same thing as baaron. hurnoi's was nice, and very balanced compared to the others..hm...NULL

    it's not a wristaround. it doesn't even go around the wrist. sleep(1).gif

    people and bad nomenclature. :| It's a FL Pinkyaround P34-12 done palm-down. The french call it a swivel.

    Baaron, work on smoothness.
    JC, work on difficulty and copious amounts of variation. (All of your combos are very similar.)
    Sankaku, work on that god damn camera angle.
    Huroni, work on actually finishing a combo. LOL WUT.

    Vote goes to Sankaku because he basically has everything everyone else doesn't.
    So guys, work on not sucking. (゚Д゚)

    The circles are eyes, and the character in the middle is the open mouth. Possibly yelling or jaw dropped.

    Can people post reasons why they voted for JC? Just curious.

  23. tomohiro
    Date: Mon, Apr 20 2009 01:49:59

    my reasoning was a mix of process of elimination and preference.
    Baaron had alot of difficult tricks and linkages, but the combo just lacked smoothness. i would think that baaron needs to improve on how he practices his combos.
    Huroni's was pretty good but i just too short and just didn't wow me as much as sankaku and JC
    it was like more of a matchup between JC and sankaku for me. Both of them had a very well executed combo. I just think JC's combo was more appealing in MY eyes( not that i'm saying sankaku wasn't). it's just that maybe his style is nicer than sankaku. But JC needs to improve on his difficulty. If they do a rebattle i think sankaku would have a different combo while JC would have a similar combo.

    mhm yeah...i'm getting quite a bit of negative feedback on this thread, and i mean i guess that's expected, this was a rushed battle anyway =\ and so we all had very little time to film but yet, i'm winning blink.gif so yeah, i'm wondering that too xD

    why i think i'm winning though is cause of that one thing that charlie said, that my combo looked confident (i guess that's cause it wasn't very difficult) and that's where it appeals to the majority of people (which also means the unexperienced people -.-'' no offense to you guys)

    edit: not saying that all those who voted for me are inexperienced either, just saying that that may have been the reason why the less experienced had voted for me, whereas those with more experience like tomo voted for me cause of.. his reasons stated before (as for other experienced spinners voting for me...i dunno sleep(1).gif )

    no, i meant one or the other, i dunno where he was, he mentioned he was with his gf, but then his status on msn said he was with his cousin
    --they'er not the same person though xD

    JC, because his spinning reminds me of my own.
    only a little more developed, with a tad more smoothness, and a touch more speed.
    Basically how I want my combos to look right now, but still can't manage to get.
