The technique is long gone, IIRC.

most of the rollers they send out to LCdHs worldwide (both of them that i've seen... only gone to see two. they don't really attract me to the B&Ms. Ever.) have been using this technique...

perhaps HSA only teaches them that technique? then broadcasts it to the world that way??

This is a Behike 54 being rolled at El Laguito in February 2013. It's not the clearest but all the filler leaves were entubado. This wasn't a show for my benefit, she had started that one before I arrived and was doing this all day.

The recent cuban rollers at LCDH now on tour here in Canada have been using the accordion and not the entubado technique.

This is all very interesting - I'd always thought that entubado was the "Cuban way", so to speak. So I wonder if they are now training / instructing rollers to roll accordion, and if so, the reasoning for doing so.

Strange, I have always thought that the current Cuban way has always been "accordion" and "entubar" is Dominican or non-Cuban.

Perhaps the old Cuban way may have well been "entubar".

The rollers on tour are not high level rollers but from the countryside. Havana rollers are not touring as much as they used to.

From what i've read, the entubado technique takes the most time when compared to other techniques, i guess it does not fit well with mass production.
