Did you ever wonder what makes a twirling baton so special? It’s physics… You know, like, Laws of Motion, Gyroscopic momentum, centrifugal force, weight distribution, center of gravity, equilibristics, air-flow dynamics, torque, and so much more “magic,” packed into this iron rod some of us love so much.❤
David and I made this storyboard to help visualize just one of the fundamental, mechanical properties regarding twirling baton technology, namely, that the balance point is crucial in establishing an optimal air-flow dynamic, which is the quality that keeps the baton aloft in sustained flight.

Here’s how to test this out for yourself! ✔👍🙂

I just thought you’d like to know a little about the art of baton twirling, 💚💜🌟🗝
