The Vortex - NAILED IT!

Yes, I finally did it. I finally, finally, finally have the Vortex down pat. I had a semi-good handle on it before, but I was putting an extra rotation in when I passed at the top to my left hand. Try as I might, I couldn't rid myself of that extra spin. Well, Jon Coyne's YouTube tutorial on it sealed the deal! Why is it that one can watch 10 tutorials on something and struggle and then number 11 is the one that makes the bells go off?? Love it!
