Thanks everyone!!
I made fall and fallhich and I had to go and test it! It feels heavier than last one, but it must be lack of practise.

Note to self: 4 plait portion must be longer

But I have to say it craks really well and loud. My neighbours heard it from over 200m away through little forest and bumby landscape :D It should be good after some braking in.

It does seem to flow nicely.
Great place to practice.

That's a gorgeous practice area, Jyri. You're very lucky to have such landscape all around you.
