Im getting the hang of glowstringing, progress may vary but im getting there. I know a few moves but i can't link them together, i think i need more warps. I know how to do leg and arm wraps but i feel i need something advance more complexed.

You don't wanna jump in the water without getting your feet wet Tommy
If you have gotten the hang of arm/leg wraps, try different combinations with them. And then progress to shoulder wraps. I'll make a arm-leg wrap exercise tutorial that shows a few good exercises that help you practice wraps

Well Tommy, arm and leg wraps are the starting point, and actually, those are the main and only wraps really. For you to start advancing on different wraps, start moving your body around. It's like manipulating a math equation (sorry for the bad analogy xD) to find an answer for different parts of the equation. And if Alex and the other admins don't mind, I'll make some tutorial videos for wraps too =)

By all means Dru, feel free
I really appreciate the help, because I'm actually a pretty busy guy
But yea, everybody has a different view-point on stringing and it wouldn't hurt to get more than one. Thanks bud!

Hey man, just joined GenXGlow. Watched your spiraling video and i am able to do the spiral once its started but im having a hard time getting the sticks in motion. Any pointers? and another thing, in what order should i watch the tutorials?

These tutorials were just randomly requested so it really doesn't matter what order you watch them in. But most of them are intermediate-to advanced moves so some of them will take a lot of practice and learning a lot of other stuff before-hand :/

But with the spiral, you can enter into it from a lot of different motions as long as your strings are spinning In the same direction, and spinning at a 180 degree off-set from one another (also called split-time)
If you'd like to see it done I will gladly put a little vid together for you

I have seen some cool videos on youtube recently, i was just woundering how to do different kinds of wraps. I know how to do the basic leg and arms wraps but i can't do the advanced wraps such as sun wraps etc. Alex could you please make me a tutorial on how to do cool advance wraps such as sun wraps.

I know how to do a bowtie,link catch orbital and orbital. I have watched the video for the link catch orbital butterfly style but for some reason i don't understand it. I think it beacuse the camera angle is fixed and the move is not fully explained. There is a video on youtube but it really hard to read the text and watch the guy doing the move.Genxglow please help.
