Re: i need help!

Aha, this is the same problem I had a loong time ago.

But Mr. Matnotah helped me out pretty well. :)

All I can say is, practice man. That's the only thing.
It's not one of those moves you can picture in your mind, then go pick up a bali and do it, it's just all practice needed for this.
Start off with slow circles one at a time, until you get used to the momentum.

Cyril (Matnotah) can explain it better himself if you still seem to have problems...

Re: i need help!

like whats already been said, start with big, slow circles. the more you do it, the tighter, and therefore, faster they will get. then it will be just too easy.
