Contemporary Hustle whip

A pattern that Zach taught me.

The contemporary Hustle whip is different from the regular Hustle whip because you do not “open the newspaper” on the 1-and-2 or 5-and-6. If the follower is not ready, opening the newspaper can hurt the follower (that is what Amber told me). The contemporary Hustle whip is also different because it does not require a parallel handhold at the start.

It starts from an [open] position and all the footwork is the same as in a regular whip, but the handwork is different. Handwork 1 and 2 is the same as a whip for the left hand because it is [J-hook], but the right hand is offered at waist level with the palm up on 1. On 2, your body and your right hand should be pointing at 3 o’clock. By 2, you should have the follower’s left hand on your right hand. On 5 move your right hand in front of your right hip. On 6 move your left hand so it is parallel with the right hand. Anchor on the 7&8. You should end in a [parallel] position.
