Presentation / Best 2P2H / 1P2H Angle?

    I apologize if this topic was made. If it was I ask a mod to move it to the appropriate place.

    Anyways, as maybe of you may (or may not) know, I can spin 2P2H sometimes. I commonly do 1P2H in most of my combos and I think that my angle needs adjusting for it. Since I'm dominantly right handed, I obviously have my camera angled to point at my right hand. However, when I spin with my left hand I always think it looks weird so I was wondering if anyone has any advice on what the best angle is for doing 2P2H or 1P2H. Here's a video of my current angle. (There is a Ken Burns effect applied so don't say my camera isn't mounted firmly, it is).

    It isnt a 2p2h combo...But IMO thats the best kind of angle for 2p2h/1p2h.

    imo straight down would be best. look at minwoo+thekooks tag thing for WC and you'd know what i mean wink.gif

    yeah i always thought that somewhat perpendicular to my hands would look best.. but idk how that would stack up to the judges of a tourney or something.. i guess ill just wait for YR R3 results to see how i get judged at filming..

    I'm bumping this for opinions. I'm doing a combo which involves an elbow pop and 2 hands. which angle would look the best?

    I think ponkotu's newer 1P2H angles are nice. So like zoomed out some what, and a front or semi-front view of the front of the person. I think if it's zoomed in too much it will feel kinda cramped with 2 hands being used.

    possibly a top angle that is viewing the lengths of both arms.
