DerPoiBenne sent me an inquiry about doing a mixed transition with loop up top and extension down below inverted and it turns out it's doable with a stall. Here it is performed in split opposites such that one segment is antispin flower and the other is extension. I'd originally misunderstood what he was suggesting and did the loop as a major translation/linear isolation, so here is an interesting 4-step pattern using this property as well.

Here's the second installment of my explanation of how hard and soft transitions work with Alien Jon's concept of arcs and loops. Here I demo all the permutations of these transitions through the intratangent circles (concentric) versus extratangent circles (outside--btw, if any mathematicians know what these concepts are actually called, please let me know) for a bunch of different circle sizes.

poiboi07 posted another sweet tech blog and I'm cribbing the first trick shamelessly from him. It's a pendulum vs. CAP hybrid that one then uses to perform a Yuta-style horizontal stall around either in a complete circle or 180 degrees. I'm finding it's a fun way to do an almost weave style turn back and forth and have added a vertical stall shift to the mix, making it an easy move to switch around in all three planes.
