Hi Matt, finally figured out why my roll over the pinky side was not working. I was releasing the bo from my hand too soon. Thank you for your help and patience, you are the best!!

Thanks Matt this helped I used a broom stick and I can do it pretty fast

[@leogronung3146]

Wow the first 2 minutes you literally described what i tried to figure out myself in the last 2 years... (actually i got it some day) But, at least, now i can use the rest 8 minutes of the video to hopefully not waste 8 years for just the idea how to do it xD

[@pasquinilli]

That’s an awesome endorsement! Thanks!

[@Jay_Rule]

Thank you so much for slowing down the movements and also explaining the importance of warming up in order to prevent injuries. I've watched quite a few of beginner bo tutorials and they are just too fast for beginners. I figure since I'm practicing the nunchakus everyday, I'll also start with the basics of bo training.

Thank you man! I did Kuk sool from the ages 3- 9 and I just found my old staff! Surprisingly I haven’t grown much so I’m trying to remember the movements I did. :D I used a wooden staff that was just a little bit over my head it’s a bit short now but it still gets the job done.

[@simsan2438]

Amazing teaching!!!!!!!

[@pasquinilli]

Thank you!!!

[@timedriverable]

If you back the hand up from the middle slightly your staff will have more momentum kind of like a pendulum and the staff will be doing most of the work with your figure eights. Aside from that a great video. With the wrist roll I find that my hand moves up the staff instead of staying in the middle.

[@pasquinilli]

Thanks. The hand constantly needs to be replaced into the middle by sliding during the turn. The Indian styles use more of the pendulum style you describe.

[@eaglewolfzen]

Everything about this was good except for the fact that you said a wrist roll for the one-handed procedure. If it's on your wrist and the angle of your thumb actually bounces the rod back in your face? Why don't you tell people to roll it like it was around their metatarsals? This is actually the finger bones where they are fused before they are split and makes your palm above your thumb but just for your fingers. This seems to be the platform for which the bo staff seems to rotate when you do the one-handed technique and where small balls are caught besides the fingers themselves, correct me if I am wrong.

[@pasquinilli]

Well I’m sure you are right! The term used by most people is wrist roll and so I title the video and use the term “wrist roll” so that KZbin shows the video when people search that term. I’m certain that metatarsal roll is more correct but not likely to be searched for.

[@Uunidentifiedd]

How do I stop the pole from sliding out the centre when I’m doing the wrist role

[@pasquinilli]

You can’t. You have to reposition your hand to regain the center. It comes more naturally with time. I’ll make you a video that includes the technique and slow it down!

[@gxi_2.0]

Thanks finally have that good fluid motion

[@obitokotito]

Me after watching 1 episode of naruto

[@kenvng]

how height is the staff to you sir Matt? I do kung fu and my school is a good school but honestly I have never taught to warm up (well with at beginning of the whole training but not staff warm up at all). The only spin I learn when I learn the form. So what I am trying to say is this is awesome and thank you.

[@pasquinilli]

Thank you for those great compliments! The staff I am using is 72” or six feet. How long is the staff you use?

[@sanchitpnthr8187]

great master very very much talented

[@TalesGrimm]

Literally why I came here hahaha

[@octokw1]

Neat! Thank you so much for sharing this. Usually I use this technique (hand roll) and I can put it behind my back too and throw it up but I have no idea how to do the spins for both sides of the body at the sorta middle of the video so I appreciate this helpful tutorial and hopefully I'll become better with time! :) (and I use an oar because it glides easier for me and it was lying around so I just used it, thanks again) Edit: I also forgot to mention with the wrist roll it just goes one way and it keeps sliding that one way until the end of my oar and when I use it the opposite way over and over again it doesn't build momentum and I don't want to use the two hand technique because I always fumble with it so yeah.

[@pasquinilli]

Awesome! I talk about how to keep it in the middle on the wrist rolls in either direction. I can talk about that again on the next live Bo stream

@@pasquinilli Oh thanks for the reply my man! Your video really taught me something I have always wanted to do... Wukong is a sage monkey from the Chinese mythology, also known as the monkey king. When I first saw his attitude and a potential to rile up with anyone he likes to, kind of pushed his assets on my mind which made me like his own style of living. And since I stopped exploring the ancient myths a long time ago, I couldn't know much about him, so it's the best explanation for him that I could give you. And ever since the new video game (Back myth Wukong) has released, I got to see him again, and thus searched for a staff spinning tutorial, and you were around! Thanks again.
