I can't immediately find what a clip showing I mean, but, for example, look at how deep Cristina's volcada is at 2:30 in this video:...
What about a colgada? Same thing, except rather than inward pressure there is outward pressure. And both often have a shared axis. In the volcada...
Perhaps this depends on just how far off her axis the woman is, and whether or not she customarily dances apilado. For example, if she is...
Easiest lead to volcada that I've found is to first lead a boleo so that the woman's left leg goes back. Then I step back and lead a circular...
Interesting. Mind if I ask what they do wrong? Or can you identify it specifically?
Used to?? No longer?
Same question. Do any of you leads regularly lead volcadas? Are many of you follows regularly led in volcadas? Both to the open and closed side?
Do any of you leads regularly lead colgadas? Are many of you follows regularly led in colgadas? And if so, any in particular?

I do also. However, I find that it a bit less leadable in a social setting than the trap sacada because it relies more on the follow understanding...
I've taken way too many lessons to be an autodidact. However, nearly all lessons, by my choice, focus exclusively on frame, connection, and...
LOL. Actually, I do want to have a discussion with someone about what I term "dynamic colgadas". Yup. There we go again. Terminology. But I'm...
Subliminal - thanks for the response. It's an easy concept and can lead into a number of different improvised steps, but I do want to be clear that...
Norberto Esbrez's terminology. Not mine. Sorry if it caused confusion. The trap occurs prior to what some may consider an enganche, but I do...
Thank you for the welcome back! Trap sacada - socially leadable El Pulpo concept. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y80jDZwhndY Clear examples at...
I suggest that the OP check out the collection of video clips at tangoandchaos.org I think that seeing the variety of maestros captured in one place...
