    [GH]  While awaiting Ally Gowan's quiz critique, let's view a couple of tailing loop videos which Aitor Coteron has sent and given permission for us to share.  No password needed :

    Hi Gordy,

    Feel free of using it if you want:

    [GH]   Note the exaggerated use of creep which clearly shortens the available casting arc and the resulting tail.





    No creep and scarce arc:

    Use it for the group if you want.

     [GH]  Here we see pure lack of sufficient casting arc with no creep resulting in a tail.

    I note the obvious dip and return of the rod tip.  This concave tip path couldn't be avoided even though the caster didn't use a spike of power..... but did have to use just enough power to make the cast.
