Here’s a little dynamic trapeze sequence I was researching at NECCA back in the day. I’ve always loved a beat to meathook — I find it both graceful and surprising. The zipper pop straight into the blood-to-blood twisty beat is a bit scary for me, especially doing it at beat height, and you can see I’m not doing the best twisty beat ever out of it, but I really like this phrase nevertheless. Here’s the basic sequence:
- archy beat
- hand switch (bringing hands together in center of bar)
- beat to meathook
- move top leg to other side of arm and twist around to inverted one-arm pike
- grab bar with free hand to create a “zipper”
- zipper pop to blood-to-blood grip
- twisty beat into inverted straddle
