Did my first 7bt fwd weave. No arm-wraps, but with my elbows threaded over one another. Seperation looks good, but the shoulders feels torn out of their sockets this morning!!

I've managed to get forward and reverse behind the back weaves, now looking at getting turns thereof.

Just managed to figure out how to thread the needle, along with how to do it lying down. I also managed to figure out how to do hyperloops inside of a 3 beat weave, and this move thing where I put it under my leg and wrap it around the back of my arm and come out into a butterfly. Which was purely by accident, but it looked cool. Also just got the 5 beat weave down.

Today I just managed to learn the Buzzsaw. Yesterday I attempted flowers (And succeeded). Now I'm working on Buzzsaw tricks, including not wacking myself when I try to do a buzzsaw flower. I hate being short, because that means my arms are short, so I have to super shorten the poi if I don't want to wack myself in the chest.

I haven't done more than briefly touched poi in ages, however... a posting on behalf of my 11yo, lachie...
he's now got an increasingly smooth forwards 3-beat weave... I'm getting him to play around with increasing/decreasing the speed, so he can maintain control... have also shown him how (and he can do it) to do the 3-bt with mostly wrist, minimal arm movement.
he's also figured out inwards spinning butterfly by himself.

kk... I made lachie a pair of practice poi last night, out of a pair of tights, a pair of socks and some rice... so now he can practise as much as (and wherever/whenever) he likes.
he's now working on reverse 3-bt; trying to move into it from forwards by turning around 180deg. is getting there...

Hey everybody, just wanted to say that I am very grateful for this page and especially the library with the beginners moves because here (Phi Phi Island, Thailand), I haven't found a teacher so before I found this site I had to learn tricks by myself without any supervision or tips... which was really demotivating...
Since I look up tricks on HOP, I have learned: Split time, Butterfly, Giant Butterfly, Butterfly behind the back, One handed Butterfly (left hand), Cork Screw, Chasing the Sun and Buzzsaw
Right now I am trying to learn the 3 beat Weaver but its kind of tricky... but I am not giving up

Got the 1.5, just playing with it now. And the idea behind it.

Got the btb 3bt. Just clicked yesterday.
Also, not-1.5s are smoother (these are just fun )
Airwraps are getting smoother and am just playing around now.
Sort of got a butterfly weave thing too.

Turn to turn from a forwards weave into a backwards one, and back a gain, both directions. Then learn Fountains.
okay, so got going back and forth between reverse and forward weave, and then I stopped spinning for a long time. Like it's been months. fountains huh... mmmkay
