which songs do you need the bar?

Actually, I feel better off without the bar. While it makes it easier for me to move my feet and lose less energy, I end up becoming clumsy and inaccurate when I'm leaning over the bar. I really only like using it when I'm about to lose balance or something. I often just bend my knees to keep better stability and still move my feet easily (although I lose stamina faster that way, but that's good if I want a good exercise).

You don't HAVE to use the bar on anything... Personally, I'm comfortable passing all the 12's and lower no bar. Most recent decent score was an 88.xx on energizer expert(like 6 or 7 nc's). I passed summer a long time ago with a poopy score too. Never actually tried pandy but i've jumped on before the long run and played the rest out no bar without too much trouble.(the jumps at the beginning would suck though). Doubles i bar the hell out of everything 7 and higher....

I thought Pickles' Euporia video was cooler, myself.

I use the bar for everything down to one footers, but I don't rape it then, I just use it to keep my placing on the pad. Pass wise, I could probably pass most 11's without it.

I don't use bar, but then again, I can hardly pass most 10s.

I need the bar mainly for 10s and up, but anything with a long enough 16th run also demands the bar for me. Now, stuff like Fleadh Uncut, Bend Your Mind... Those runs I can do barless, but anything much faster and it becomes necessary for me.

Did you just claim that people need to substantiate barless passes for 11's? Wow, you are quite the skeptic, that is not really that hard man. I passed Charlene barless first day I played ITG and last time I checked, it's an 11. I'm a home player so I don't use a bar and I can honestly tell you that playing barless is possible and even easier for some people. Have you not seen Lil Q barless vids? I'm not saying I'm no where near that good, but seriously man, I'm surprised you can't believe a few barless 11 passes.

Let me guess, barless PSMO needs to be substantiated. How 'bout MaxX Unlimited, it has a Tell-jump or 2.

And no. We are not claiming that we can *** a song with the bar. People HAVE to back stuff like that up, even though it is completely possible accoring to GS pics or vids. There is no comparison between barless pass claims and random *** claims. One is really easy, the other is really hard.

Oh, and profanity usually doesn't make people listen to you more.

d00d wtf are you talking about? of course a home player who doesn't use the bar will pass an 11 in the arcade without the bar. you've been playing no bar at home. i'm talking about this particular quote above me:
"I use the bar for everything down to one footers, but I don't rape it then, I just use it to keep my placing on the pad. Pass wise, I could probably pass most 11's without it." - to this quote i say go pass monolith first try without the bar. go ahead. i'll wait here. lolz cigarette. you think you can last through songs without the bar? or keep your balance? good luck b1tch.
I'm saying don't say you can pass without actually passing the song. I'm sure I could pass a good number of 12s I've never even attempted since I got a good number of 11s down. But that's called ridiculous speculation. Unless I go out there and do it - i call bs.

Helps my scoring and such.
