video of Val trying to do rocking- ha - query

[Charles Butler]

I guess I have a query as to why the shoulder line doesn't have rocks at both ends, one going one way, and the other going the other, to parallel the hands in motion.

Ok. That helps. Now I know why I was having a hard time with it. I don't really see the first four as scalene movements. True, they are there, but they just don't seem to be important to me.

Now back to the beginning of the discussion with good 'ol Mark in ASL by DeafMIssions. ;-) It would be the tilt written at the shoulder, not at the head like I had written. (Of course, I personally wouldn't write it as I don't think that it is really important, but that's besides the matter.)




The reason I had opted for the previous version was because I couldn't figure out where to place the shoulder line. Here is an attempt. :-)




Ok. I need to get going as well. I'll be back online tomorrow. :-)
