OK..in that case, go to a competition and see what you're up against, then you have a starting point. From what I recall, creative forms are often quite flashy (being theatrical, throwing weapons in the air, using chrome/graphite bo, music, fast pace, showing off flexibility/acrobatics).

 

Check out this link http://www.nblskil.com/skm/sportkaratemagazine/issue%2380/sgweapons80.html for an example (still shots though) of what I mean.

once you learn how to do figure eights: forwards backwards 2 hands, forwards backwards 1 hand, behind the back, over the head, etc....

 

try to keep the staff moving for one minute. try moving in figure eights while rotating your bosy 180 degrees without stopping the staff. you should find yourself suddenly doing backwards figure eights.

 

once you can move for about 5 minutes without stopping, you should be able to have a good idea of what combinations work together really well.

I'm no longer posting here. Adios.

Also, if you can get some foam sparring bo's and work out with a partner, it could help you understand the practical application of each movement...in a safe manner!

 

If you put yourself into a sparring mindset, the techniques can flow in a logical and effective manner.
