pole drops??
-
Veena, I have to agree with your loving of shoulder mounts and dismounts! Following confusion watching your Jenyne tumble with the shoulder dismount, plus a bit of Holly Drop obsession… I did a Holly Drop finishing in shoulder dismount rather than Scorpio! It’s really fun!!
Still trying to get the mechanics of the Veena-style Jenyne tumble into my head!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
For the drops thread.. I’ve always wondered if you could do a sliding drop whilst in Brass Monkey (maybe Funky Monkey), or Marley perhaps?

I first saw the "death drop" (crucifix drop) to the floor when Fawnia and I went to a local strip club in Chicago….the girl was on about an 18 foot pole and not only dropped super fast but arched her chest out suddenly at the bottom so that her body fell a bit further. It was incredible because you thought she had already hit the floor with her face before your mind registered that she arched forward!
Unfortunately she came up to talk to us and was so high she could barely slur her words out!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif
Wow I’m impressed she could pull off something that incredible when she was high! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif Funny how the body can still work at peak performance but the mouth/speech can’t. Maybe it’s an adrenalin thing.

Sure you can do a Brass Monkey drop… I do it all the time… I end it in a *smack* on the floor. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif (Cold pole or slippy legs.)
But seriously, you could do a Brass Monkey, let your grip go (and you’d plummet) and catch it with Reverse Inverted Thigh Hold into some other move, re-grip the Brass Monkey (though, I’ve never managed that, I’m sure it might be possible?), or swing into a Pencil or straight edge style hand grip (do you have super strong and grippy hands? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif) ? Can handstand down from it from a height? (Ouch.)
I’d love to see a deliberate and well caught Brass Monkey/Funky Monkey/Marley drop!

the electric leg switch is a fun way to get down the pole, nut you may not consider it a "drop". I don’t have a link offhand, but I know K.T. Coates does it in many of her vids…..
-
Wow! Thanks for that link Phillypole Jess – there are some incredible combos in that performance – my mind is blown! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif
And I haven’t even gotten to most of the other videos/drops that Empyrean posted yet – I’m excited! -

Veena, can you do a tutorial on your drop????
-
So there are all sorts of drops in this vid, but around the 6th min she drops from an armpit hold. Ouch!

Found a pole sit drop: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgI2e6a75TU&feature=related at 2.22. *EDIT* Be warned there’s nudity past 3.25 in this clip. I can’t totally remove this post, so I thought I’d edit it. There’s another post after this one mentioning this also but it went to the next page and I wanted to make sure this warning was seen. If this needs to be removed, moderator please do so.

oops. omg. was posting while watching and didn’t finish the clip before posting. there’s nudity in that clip at 3.25. Sorry!!!

You’re thread reminded me I saw a brass monkey drop somewhere I couldn’t remember where but this morning it came to me…Karol does a brass monkey drop to a sit here at 1:17. Not a lide…but it’s from a brass monkey.

I also received a private vid from someone who did a cross ankle release and dropped into a V-split (or boomerang) then BOUNCED back up to a brass monkey! Unfortunately I cannot share it as it was private but it was awesome the way she bounced down and back up again!

That drop from Brass Monkey is cool! I’ve been trying something similar myself lately!
WRT to the private vid.. that idea reminds me.. recently did a master class with a lady called Karen Chaudy and she does this trick where she handsprings and then drops into a boomerang style position. 0:50 in this vid:

To go back up again into handspring would be pretty cool!!

i just saw this post the other day. so when making a video i made sure to do the drop move right up in the beginning it is around 0.44 it is a very simple one to do that i enjoy a lot. good luck – have fun!
