Video Tech Blog #111: CAP vs pendulum hand switching

Could not display the flash because does not appear to exist.

Uploading videos here in Africa has proven to be such a production that I think this might be the last one I get to upload before coming home, but keep an eye out just in case I change my mind ;) Here are two methods for switching which hand is performing CAP and which hand is performing pendulum in the CAP vs pendulum antibrid I've been working to death lately. The first method switches both moves to isolated pendulums and when the orientation of the hands is reversed, we return to the original move. It's slightly awkward, but maintains the hand-to-head connection that makes the move look so cool in the first place. The second looks so familiar I'm sure I must have seen it in someone else's video: it involves turning the entrance to the antispin petal of the CAP into half a cateye and then converting it into a pendulum while the other hand performes an isolated pendulum against it and pops back out into CAP. If anyone knows where else I might have seen this move, please drop me a line in the comments section. Otherwise it might actually be an original!
