Elbow movement and some details

[Honza]

Hello everyone,

Val I know, there is spiral upward movement arrow, but I don't know why,
forward spiral is not included in ISWA.
Adam thanks for constructing spiral forward movement.
Adam and Charles, I think your elbow movement will work for me as well, but
I am not sure if it is clear enought, that it is not hand but elbow
movement.

Charles, please could you share movie of SeeSaw sign? Thanks.

Honza
