Anonymous. It does say for the man going forward and I will quote . Page 10. At the full extent of the stride the heel of the front foot and the toe of the back foot will be touching the floor. Lower the right toe imediately so that the foot is flat on the floor. For the lady the heel of the supporting foot will not lower untill the moving foot is level with it. Page 13. For the lady there is no foot rise NFR. Only body rise.

"Can somebody explain how to play youtube video clips in slow motion?"

You need a tool that will download them, and a program that can play .flv files slowly.

The tool I use is YouTube Downloader. It also converts it for you.

Once again you try to pass off the description of a walk action with NO RISE AND NO FALL as being literally valid for a step danced with rise and fall.

It just ain't so. You will never understand dancing as long as you sloppily ignore such key differences.

When the subject is a feather step, if you want a literal description you must find something written specifically ABOUT THE FEATHER STEP, or at at the very least something with a comparable action in the vertical dimension.

Phil. Anybody knows more about computers than I do. What I do is press pause. Then I go to that thermometor looking thing and move the figures a fraction at a time . Sometimes I dont know how without me doing anything it goes into slow motion and stays that way untill I exit completely.
Another thing I do is if I want those pictures without going on the internet. I video them off the screen with my ordinary digital camera. I load them onto the computer just like a photo and it goes into my picture file. I have also found a way of getting the images onto that little plug in gadget. i think it is called an SUB. I can then take them to another computer. At this present time I haven't been able to copy from youtube to a DVD. I hope this helps. Cheers

Hi Polished
I've tried using the pause button, but it doesn't work very well. I think there is a fundamental technical reason for this. Clicking the pause button on/off very fast isn't too bad. I've never had it 'fall' into slow motion. I presume by 'SUB' you mean USB.

Phil. Sorry. The ones I can slow down are the ones I filmed off the screen with my digital camera which I loaded into my pictures. When I recall them I have a bar underneath which I can manipulate as I said before. I don't know how, but with Luca if I do it a few times it goes into slow motion and stays there untill I close it down. The music plays at the normal speed and finishes ages before the slow motion dancers. Its a good way to go. Because streaming uses up your hours. This way doesn't. Good Luck
