Firefly777 stranger Registered: 19/12/11	Can someone please share with me is it possible to transition to the windmill when spinning a butterfly or 3 beat weave? Would you just reverse 3 beat weave or split time into it? I only seem to get to the windmill when I do the 3 beat weave into a reverse. Looks like a dodgy half fountain lol!

From either weave is easily doable, but reverse feels most natural. _________________________ 'We're all mad here. I'm mad, you're mad." [said the Cat.] "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
