Crack me up... I hide away for a month and come back to find this post resurfacing with chatter about Stretch-A-Bellies. First of all, you can find a copy of the class notes at my web site here, but I'm not sure that they'll be too much help without the descriptions of the moves. Lemme know if you have questions.

Second, those silly guys are my creation, but One Way Street carries exclusive manufacture and distribution rights. There's no big secrets to their construction... the way they are being finished now for mass production is much more complicated than the original prototype--the design has gone thru some significant restructuring with leg/foot fasteners that require some specialized tools and know-how.

It's been, well, interesting to see rip-offs show up at festivals. What's that they say about imitation? 

Sorry I missed the earlier conversation.

One Way Street certainly does their fair share of stealing ideas and then manufacturing "knock-offs" so I wouldn't feel bad about "adapting" their design.

Thanks My for keeping us on our toes. I had never seen one when I attented the OWS festival years a go..........sO I was just going on a whim. Thanks for clearing things up. Thanks also for sharing a copy of the handout. It does pay to do your homework.

It appears to me that the slinky in question is probably the "Mini Rainbow Smile Face Magic Springs" from Oriental Trading (4.99 /Doz.)
