Slow Motion Baton Twirling Video
August 28th, 2010 · No Comments · Giving Back, Videos: How To Twirl, Videos: Just For Fun
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.
