Beginner / Intermediate Contact Staff Tutorial - Angel Roll - How to flow with the contact staff

In this tutorial I will teach you a slightly more dificult trick: the angel roll. This skill has some prerequisites, especially the halo and neckwrap. It also helps to have started working on the steve. Luckily I have made videos for all of these tricks, plus some others, in my beginners series!

The angel roll, as the name implies, involves having the staff rolling on itself. Therefore, this trick is different to other tricks, such as the conveyor belt, where the staff is only rotating around the center point and not rolling.

This trick is a great and essential one to add to your repertoire, and I hope you have fun learning it.
