Occasionally I'll begin to lose balance on certain types of difficult step patterns, and will grab the bar for a second until I regain balance, but the other ~95% of the time I'm just dandy without the bar.

I swing my arms like a madman to stay balanced. Never ever touched the bar.

I've only touched the bar when I'm about to fall on my a$$. laugh.gif

I just balance myself with my arms or quick leg movements to steady myself. E13.gif

Usually, I'm moving around enough that my feet catch up to my center of gravity pretty quickly, so I rarely lose my balance. However, during jump freezes, I sometimes start falling foward ('cause I stop suddenly after moving, you know) and I have to touch the screen - that's why, unlike most people, I prefer the pad closer to the screen.

Never fallen backward, though. I don't use the bar for balance. Just for when I get tired during stream. laugh.gif I barrape occasionally.

Yeah, swing my arms around like a mad man... I try to pass it off as raving though. Some crappy ass raving though, i must admit.


But on hard songs, or hard songs that i'm sightreading.... bar rape the mother.

I've never used the bar. I find it hard to effectively hit the up arrow when I do, so... I stay off it... I stumble on it durring doubles FS quite often though, espescially durring turns and such...
