This short video of slow motion baton twirling is pretty cool!
It’s especially interesting to watch video of baton rolls while they are slowed down. Starting at 0:32 you’ll see fishtails, then neck rolls. Also, a long arm roll toward the end of the video. Enjoy!
Appreciation to danabyrne for sharing their YouTube video.
