TheDoctoress Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 10 minutes ago, arabica said: Tell more! Onyx has a very distinct style of movement that seems quite unique compared to most others in WGI. The look reminds me more of a contemporary dance company than a winter guard. Lots of sharp, aggressive, angular motions with very interesting uses of the body and equipment in space. All of that reminds me of the look, feel, and sound Troopers has been going for, so I think this will be a great fit! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Building on The Doctoress' accurate assessment, I recommend watching Onyx 2010-2014, 2017, and 2019. They are on their own planet and you can't look away. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are on their own planet and you can't look away. 2010 was activity changing. 2014 was a masterpiece. The vibe seems right to me based on the direction Troopers probably want to be heading. Obviously the weakest section of 2023 and possibly 2022 as well. Simply improving the guard could move the corps up even if all other captions stay the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be fun to see how next year's program develops. I’m optimistic but I feel like each time I see Lentz’s name announced he’s only designing for one year at a time in DCI. Obviously it works for Onyx - that team has been together for a long time with proven success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They rehired Right Hook Snyder. I don't think they care honestly. Could be wrong. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
