Devil Sticks Tutorial: Fishtails (Intermediate/Advanced)

I got this footage about 4 months ago, but only got round to finishing the edit now.

In this one I ramble on about how to do fishtails with flower/devil sticks. The fishtail can be done with many different props, and there are a bunch of tutorials, but I noticed that there weren't any fishtails tutorials for juggling sticks out there, so I decided we needed one :)
I've never taught anyone fishtails using this method of learning before, so I'm hoping it works. I tried to break it down to the most basic steps.

The first section is a description of the fishtail technique which may or may not help you with learning how to do it. I just thought I'd give some background. The main lesson starts at 2:15.

The last section from 7:35 is all slow-mo stuff from different angles that you can step frames through or whatever.
