Galen Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Pretty nice perspective on the color guard/WGI experience- that said, trying to do that much of a crash course in two days would drive me absolutely nuts: 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way on earth I could do what those amazing performers do. Crazy respect goes out to all Color Guards at all different levels. I'll just stick to shooting rifles, not twirling and tossing them. 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KVG_DC Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 I love this. This is on par with my feeling that we'd appreciate what olympians do much more if we saw some everyday people try what they do first. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough, they did a series on that too: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were multiple times in HS and drum corps days where I would play around with flags or rifles with my friends in the guard trying to coach me. Finally, I gave up after my hand getting absolutely beat up from missing the rifle too many times. Cool video though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg_orangecounty Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Interesting. Didn't realize there are all-age color-guard circuits. (thought that's what I heard). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
