Here are a few videos of myself giving my own medley a try. I can tell you this for sure – this is a small medley but 3 minutes is still a very short time to get even this small amount of stuff done, so don’t stumble through it. Try to get through it as quickly as possible.

Attempt #1

Score: 12 Points

Attempt #2

Score: 20 Points

Attempt #3

Score: 18 Points

TIPS: Make sure to get the easy stuff. Don’t leave points on the platform. A few times I did not remember the easier feats and it cost me points. Also if you have someone who can watch your time, ask them to help you because I had more time than I thought on the last attempt and could have closed the #1 and #2, which would have added two more points to my score and gotten me 20 points again.

Alright DIESELS, get ON it! And get your video uploaded. Remember you can submit until Sunday at 5 PM!

Thanks and all the best!
