We call it a flourish
I talk about this in a later video too, but that’s also a correct term! Really, any move that does that wrist motion is a flourish (carousel, windmill, butterfly, Blue Devil, invert, etc).
We call them extensions and also we start at right shoulder
Extensions are done at any point that’s away from the tab, it’s more like a classification of move than an exact move itself.
We call the just flourish
we call them windmills
Lots of people do!! I’ve taught all across the country and found that “windmills” is the most common name for them. And the thing I call a windmill most guards call a “blue devil” 🤣
same
Same
We call it a fan
Ooh interesting! That’s a term I haven’t heard before. There aren’t many of those.
We call them wrist curls since you curl your wrist, their also one of the things we learned in tryouts lol (as well as front and back rows and a few small tosses)
Nice!
we call these whips. and windmills for us are with your thumb down, which typically goes into a windmill toss
I’ve heard of a million names for these, but whips is a new one. It sounds like you call the same thing windmills that we call windmills though.
We call that a back scracher
I’ve heard that one before!
Same
I was thinking the same!!! But for back scratchers I think you're supposed to hold your hand upside down
I just learned that today at my fourth of July parade band camp for our parade routine such a fun move one of my favorite 😍
That’s awesome! I love parades. 🥰
We call them flutters because they kinda look like butterfly wings
I’ve heard this name for them too!
I’m officially calling them that it sounds so much cooler than what I’ve been calling them.
My school calls them whirlybirds. The reasoning behind this. I have no idea.
that’s i what i call em too
thank you so much I was really struggling to figure this one out!!!
Glad I could help!
Random but I like your bangs, they look good on you.
Thanks!
We call that a lazy windmill 😂😂 live it though!❤
Lol!!! Why lazy? That cracks me up.
@@SpintronixGuard because normally we do them all the way, like your whole arm is extended instead of small ones
we call those flutters!
Makes sense, I’ve heard that name before.
We call them sunshine’s because when u spin them behind your back , it’s shaped like a sunshine behind the back
Oh that’s a cute name too!!!
We call those windmills!!
I’ve heard that before too! We have a different move we call windmills that’s kind of backwards from this.
@@SpintronixGuard and we call the backwards one a flourish!
My guard calls them Flutters
I’ve heard that term before too!
This will help me practice some more cause I’m learning this in practice rn and I’m a bit confused lol 😂
We also have more detailed, full length videos in our playlist section of our channel!
we call it a backscratching flourish
Hey that works too!
where im from we call those sweeps and thumb down is a scoop.
I’ve heard sweeps before but not scoops! Interesting one!
I do that alot I do color gard for Caldwell high School
That’s awesome!!! Welcome to the color guard world!
We call it wrist extensions 😊
We actually call anything that’s done from the bottom 1/3 of the pole an extension as well!
Windmills!
A lot of people use that term for this!!! I would say it’s the most common one.
We call the butterflies
I’ve heard that! We have a different move we call butterflies, and when we tack a carousel onto the end of a butterfly it’s called a double butterfly for us. So your nomenclature makes perfect sense!
We call them butterflies
We have other ones we call butterflies!
We call those butterflies 😅. We have to learn those inorder to try out anyways.
I’ve heard them called that before! Isn’t it crazy how different moves have different names?!
We call that a “front to back”
I’ve heard that before!
✨windmills✨
Totally. Lots of teams use that term.
Wrist rotation
Super important, of course! And depending on the technique where you spin that might be the only thing you’re allowed to use to get your flag to go around.
We call them flourishes
We actually do too, but we use “flourish” as a category of moves, not just one specific move. Carousels, windmills, and butterflies are all flourishes. Just like you can do “spins” but there are drop spins, speed spins, Peggy spins, etc.
We call that a flash
There’s another name I’ve never heard before!!
we call that a red devil lol
I’ve heard a windmill called a blue devil before and a carousel called a windmill, but a red devil is a new one to me!
We call those Red Devils lol
I’ve actually heard this before! Because they are kind of opposite of our windmills (which a lot of people call blue devils).
We call it windmills
I’ve heard lots of teams call these windmills! I would actually say that’s probably the more common term for it, we just happen to have a different one we call a windmill.
we call those red devils
Makes sense! The opposite of this move (the one we call a windmill) was first taught by the Blue Devils DBC in clinics across the country and then in a series of instructional VHS tapes in the 1980’s and 1990’s. Many people called the windmill “blue devils” and therefore they decided the opposite motion must be a “red devil” to delineate both the similarities and differences of the moves!
We call that a flutter
I’ve heard that term before too!
We call these red devils!
This makes sense, they are backwards from the ones we call windmills, which are also referred to as blue devils (since they were taught on video tape by the Blue Devils in the 1980’s!).
Fun fact, Peggy Twiggs, the woman who invented Peggy Spins, also invented these! Along with LOTS more of our modern day flag and rifle basics!
We call them wind mills lol
A lot of groups do!!!
those seem like smaller sweeps, we don’t have a name for it aside from that ig. like sweeps would be that but…bigger??
For us, sweeps go back and forth in the same path so they are a completely different move. Which isn’t to say that there’s anything wrong with either, just that the terms mean different moves to different teams :)
We do those at my HS but we call them flutters
I’ve definitely heard that term for them before!
is this different than an inverted flourish?
I don’t know, it depends on what you call an inverted flourish? All moves that use this particular wrist motion are classified as flourishes: carousels, butterflies, windmills, etc. So we could technically call this a “carousel flourish” and if you call this hand position inverted then your program can call it an “inverted flourish.” One theme of naming moves that seems to ring true, however, is that something called “inverted” generally has a hand in the thumbs-down position. The carousel uses the thumbs-up position so you might be comparing your “inverted flourish” to our “windmill flourish” maybe? Check out that video too and see if that makes sense.
That is called a flutter
There are LOTS of different names for the same moves in color guard. Check out my video called “Pop Tosses 12 Ways” because I go into a deeper discussion of this topic!
We call them backscratchers
It makes sense when you use the version that goes behind your back!
We call these country roads
There’s a cute one I’ve not heard before!
Yea that was hard at first in colorguard but it got easier
I’m glad you’ve mastered it!
we call them Around the world
We have a different move called around the world that actually goes in a circle around the body!
We call it a red devil and then backwards we call it a green devil😂
I’ve heard of it called the red devil before, but usually the opposite is a blue devil! That’s so interesting that you guys went with green devil.
pinwheels
Yep, I have heard that one!
We call them rows
Hmm that’s one I’ve never heard associated with this particular move before.
Como se llaman ese yipo de banderas ?
We call them rows, and keep your arm straight, its all in the wrist
Rows are a different move for us, and we utilize straight arm technique and bent elbow technique for different purposes. 🙂
For us rows are like rowing a boat, we bring the flag up to the left and down to right slant (front row) and up behind us into right slant (back row)
I don’t think my guard has an actual name (haven’t heard it) we just call it “the thing we do in even ups”
That’s a mouthful.
What website is this flag off of
I think BandShoppe? You can design any flag on the StylePlus website though! Just make sure you tell them Spintronix sent you when you order!
We call them tacos since your flag is like the tack shell and your the filling
Taco
I’ve not heard that one before, it’s clever!
We call it a front-back lol. Our name is pretty boring
It’s descriptive though!
I stink
Without context the only advice I can give is 1. Practice more, or 2. Take a shower. 🤷🏼♀️
This is so confusing
Our shorts don’t have as much detail as our normal videos. Look up this move in the long form video and it’s really helpful!
@@SpintronixGuard tysm I can now do a windmill now thanks to your normal video!
YW!!
Flourish
Yes but more like “all carousels are flourishes but not all flourishes are carousels.” I did a video explaining This one a while back! Other common flourishes are butterflies, windmills, double butterflies…
We call them windmills
Lots of people do!!! We have a different move we call windmills.
Flourish
All carousels are flourishes but not all flourishes are carousels! 😉
We call them windmills
The one that we call “windmills” is what most guards call “inverted windmills”.
@@SpintronixGuard in one of our routines this year we have and inverted windmill but our wrist is turned and it goes around our head
Oh fun!
