Yeah, about 120mph in the neutral position (which is what that previous video was, notice the arms at a 90 degree angle). I didn't do mantis position until yesterday. Yeah, you dip your elbow to turn (one of the ways at least, there are lots of ways to do it).
This is mantis form (with added thumbs-up
) from yesterday. Note the hands are held more in front of the face, and elbows are in front of the shoulders. Far from perfect form demonstrated below, but I'm still learning it.
You can turn super-fast in this position, it's a lot of fun and I feel like I have tons more control in it.
