Definitely an ex drum major
I was thinking maybe majorette.... My guard coach twirled a lot like him, similar style.
Or possibly a military mace drum major? But you're most likely correct
stormnutt21
Damn..I was a majorette 7 years and there are a couple things he's doing that I never could pull off. Two batons, fire, and plenty of tricks
BeeDragon
I'm impressed he can do it with a random post. I twirl brooms from being in color guard but I rarely catch them cuz they weigh different.
It might take me a minute to deal with the weight, but I'll get it.
And yet I have been shamed by a big old dude.

That or majorette.

Color Guard people prefer the term spin, not twirl.

I've read it as "fag twirler" and spat out my drink.
cloudstrife5671
When I was in college, we called them flaggots =\
SkibidibididobapdoDobamdoBadabwibababadaboBaba
Fire spinner.
DavidAndrews
Yeah this is drum major training. Color guard can't do half these moves because the flag is too long.
My vote also goes to majorette. He must've been damn good at it.
HollyRex
Based on the lower body moves he was definitely in guard- majorettes (baton) or sabers. Drum majors don't typically dance like that.
No idea who you've been watching. College drum majors get down hard. https://youtu.be/MKuF_yST4vc?t=91
That's why I said typically haha...none of the drum majors I've ever worked with could move like that to save their lives.
And it's not just from watching- I've worked with both professionally. I do still believe guard or baton, but I could certainly be wrong!
Also that stick he's using is exactly like a drum major baton.
It's also just like a majorette baton or saber. I've worked with both professionally and I'd stick by my evaluation.
Though I'd edit my original post to say *probably* instead of definitely. I could certainly be wrong! :)
MyFrontPorchInMississippi
Or drum major back in the days of mace marching.
DreadPierateRoberts
mace ?
The black pole with chains around it and a jangly ball on top.
thats a flail
avastmehearty
Those days are still here, I see drum major competition results in my facebook feed from other ex-band parents :-)
The high-school I graduated from quit using a mace about three years ago. Most of the area schools who March in modern style stopped too.
greenglassdoor
Our drum major did this kind of thing. It was awesome.
Mine did the first year I was in band. The next few didn't.
eetsumkaus
nope. He uses moves from baton twirlers, not drum majors. That being said, he could have been a former Big Ten style drum major
True.
entrerie
That would be color guard or 'guard' for short, this is twirling (aka. majorette).
IAmYourGodNow
...I think I found that somebody who was a flag twirler in high school.
...or someone who doesn't like to over-generalize different trades. I think it's fairly easy to understand the differences between the two.

True Story: This one time at band camp absolutely nothing happened because we were all awkward band and music nerds.
You telling me you didnt blow anything?
I don't believe you. Every single band camp I've been to had tons of stories of secret drinking and banging
Attended Catholic school band camp, the worst that happened was we played a water game that turned into a sports bra wet tshirt contest 1/2
2/2 that no one really mentioned at the time cuz it was a little awkward. No one planned on how thin the guard's tank tops were....
I should clarify that it was a game of duck duck goose, but with ice water instead of tapping.
Funboringness
One time, a kid stacked 4 chairs and tried to vault over them... Lets just say he gave himself a vasectomy.
