OOooh fancy!

Do you always lift the squeegee off of the glass when you make your last turn?

Nice video
Did you just rename cutting down the mountain with dive bombing?
That particular technique where you steep angle the edges then deal with the middle is known as cutting down the mountain.
The way you finish off is a really bad habit I have seen SOOOOO many window cleaners get in their techniques and it stays, honestly it leaves much more chance for an error vs completing the stroke as one its also a complete additional movement.

i’ve always heard pointing down the side rather than level reffered to as dive bombing, the mountain is in the middle

Great videos Jordie!

We like how you put your own flare to window cleaning.

I guess it looks like I’m taking the squeegee off the glass but I’m actually " chattering" backwards, knocking excess water off my blade.

Using Chatter to one’s advantage is going to be its own video in due time.

Yes you got it. 3taps in three different places. This eliminates the dry pulling on the last pull. I have never come across a video with this technique.

Start the movie at 1:43 and look at your reflection on the glass on the other side of the vestibule

Cutting down the mountain , blowing up the mountain , bringing down the mountain …what if there is no mountain at all? I think we shall refer to as water removal process with a standard squeegee hand tool 3.4. Lol still just window cleaning.

Sure

If dive bombing is going straight down the edge, what do you call going up?

Sky rocketing? I would prefer to sky rocket than to dive bomb, just saying

Indeed. Moonshots? You call it whatever you like. You are the master.

Have to say this: Now when I perfected my divebombing technique I can’t see the use for liquidator (I don’t refer to pole work).
