Mermaid Motel yeah 45s suck. My band had one in our show this year so we all had to know how to do them. It was the main toss we always practiced and always worked on but after doing it so many times we just got used to it. It took me like a week of constant practice doing it to get my 45.
Had a 45 in one of our routines for our spring concert (we do guard performances for concert). It was new to most people, so it was a struggle to learn. I got it down maybe 2 weeks before the concert, and then we re-weighted the flags so they would be correctly weighted. Instantly loss all coordination for the toss, because the flag felt much heavier and I couldn't flick it right.
Lol. They're wearing beige gloves(like a tan color) but when you practice a lot they get dirty real quick! We always clean them on laundry days though
+epicreader123 We are a part of Carolina Crown and we're doing are own parts. We do it to provide personal feedback for everyone. Everyone in the colorguard does a 3-person run at some point :)
they figured that a 39" looks to big on shorter people(like me) and a 36" would be to small for taller people so having a 37.5" gun looks fine for everyone
