      Just curious, but what happens at guard tryouts? We don’t have those. The Cadet guard is open to everyone in grades 6-8. The A guard is 7-12, aka kids that have outgrown the cadet guard or are good enough for A. Then, world is 8-12, but you obviously have the be the best in the program. In order to move up to A or world, they watch you veeeery carefully throughout the season to see if you’re ready to go to the next level.

      @@mayonnaise4612 at my tryouts 8th graders come from different schools to the highschool they are going to. They have three days to get down a simple flag routine and dance routine. Then like in 2 to 3 days the gaurd leader would email us if we got in or not

      at my school , we had three days to learn 2 eight counts and one flag routine . then on the 4th day , we had 3 judges and we would do the 8 counts and the routine in front of them & on the same day we found out if we made the team or not

We have been in parades and competitions and I learned that the more you practice and improve on what you gotta improve, you could definetly improve. I really love color guard 😍💕 Btw, love the silks

    Watching this now and realizing just how different technique and protocols can change in the CG in just a couple of years, and also just how DIFFERENT technique is every where you go. Vocabulary is different, and this is what makes teaching a college guard so hard- because you have to explain everything using national language, and teach using the same technique/teaching new techniques. This is so interesting.

    4. Regular toss
    5. This one is the same we call it a 45. This year we do a 45 I the show and we turn around under it.
    We do a lot of things different. Like we have a windup for the X toss. We also do a "cone" (we call it a stir) before the 45. Also there are a bunch of counts that we do different and stuff like that.

    I'm a freshman this year and I'm going to the clinics and everything to tryouts for color guard and I've been having a hard time with the flags (mostly since I'm 4'9 and the flags are 6'0) and I figured this would help and it did a little so thank you

    Ok so...I watched this before I ever started my first marching season and now that I have over 2 years of experience, this is eye-opening. Example: apparently I learned how to do a 45 with a 1 1/2 rotation instead of just a single...?!

    it is so weird how we do the same things but use different terminology. like how you say tape, we call them the cheaters. and you call it a money hand toss whereas we just call it a j (jay) toss.

    • @DemyxTracer
      @DemyxTracer  8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      +Anya Deising no I don't believe they are. I've been doing this for four years now and those tosses have been the same all four years. No we're quite correct, sorry.

    • @bakingbeauty2993
      @bakingbeauty2993 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Anya Deising it really depends on your instructor. I get what you're saying because in our show, they do typically go a lot higher. I have seen shows though that are the same height as the one in the video. He has been doing this for a while so that's just how he learned it.😊
