This move is a variation on the Butterfly.
So to start begin doing the butterfly.
Slide one hand down the other arm as the Poi reach their peak, ie. begin sliding one as they pass above your head.
Alternate between sliding your left and right hands.

This is a neat move when practicing but when performing to an audience sometimes this move just looks like a sloppy butterfuly in the dark.
