In another video I showed you how to switch sides with the boom pole extended and in the spirit of happy boom technique training, I'm going to show you the technique I developed to rotate my leading hand 180 degress while keeping two points of contact on the pole at all times. In fairness, someone else may have developed this first but I was never taught this technique; I figured out a way to do it myself so I'll claim personal credit if nothing more.
Going from high to low with a boom pole can put muscles into awkward positions but using this technique you can cut down on the discomfort by shifting into another position. I highly suggest practicing this technique until you have it down smoothly so you don't drop the boom or twist yourself into a position causing you to lose control.
Note: It was my intention to share the handling noise inside the pole while switching hand positions but when I moved to the back of the house to avoid a leave blower out front, I forgot to hit record again on the bottom of the boom pole. Honest mistake and I'll own it. The handling noise is slightly less than when you palm the boom and spin it around. his is because less of your hands are touching the boom and most of the noise you hear is gentle taping on the boom. Time a switch for when the person you're booming isn't talking and you'll face no issues.
