fun GT -updated 20051228- now with short vid

[caribouchris]

This might already be out there and might be kind of trivial but I figured it out one day and it's fun:

1. throw a trapeze (using a couple fingers makes the next step easier...I use pointer,middle and ring fingers)
2. twist the string in your left hand away from you and over the trapeze (ccw if looking to your right)
3. create a triangle with your left hand (with pointer and thumb)
4. throw a slack Houdini (don't make the triangle big until after this step)
5. swing yo through the triangle from the bottom (cw if looking forward)
6. mount all loops on your right pointer finger including the one that you made the triangle with
7. pull first string on the left with your left hand and pull out your right pointer from all the loops
8. walla green triangle
9. dismount with a forward pop.

I don't have a vid of this...not sure if one is really necessary...if anyone is interested I'll see what I can do.

it looks cool if you do the trapeze twist and the slack houdini twist at the same time.

woot woot!!
