On the off chance that this doesn't have a name already, i thought i'd get one in there quickly for the badgers. Perhaps then they will stop following me when i'm drunk! [Loco]

You need to be able to do normal and btb butterfly weave for this one. It's actually technially a transition not a move (as are most). It goes like this:

1) 1 beat btb forwards butterfly on the left side of your body
2) 1 beat reverse butterfly on the right side of your body
3) 1 beat forwards butterfly on the left side of your body
4) 1 beat btb reverse butterfly on the right side of your body
5) back to stage 1

so transition 2 to 3 is one beat of normal butterfly weave and transition between 4 and 1 is btb butterfly weave.

I'm not coordinated enough to have it perfect yet, but I know it's technically possible. Bring on the pain!

it's basically just a way of switching back and forth between normal buttefly weave and btb butterfly weave, but doing it so its crossing from left to right over your body at the same time.

I was trying to find the most stupidly hard thing i could that day, tbh it looks pretty ugly and i'm impressed anyone replied [LOL]

dunno what a waistwrap is, so can't answer jackelero's question

smoke: its like the weave, only the poi are travelling in opposite directions, and instead of one beat on the poi's side of the body and 2 beats on the other, its the other way round. So you have butterfly on one side of your body crossing to reverse butterfly on the other. BTB butterfly weave is the same, only behind your back!

what's a hyperloop?: Damn good question. I think i know, but imho i think it looks ugly, and the people who've seen me do airwraps have thought i've just made a mistake, not done it on purpose [LOL]

Anyone got a video of a BF weave? I understand the theory of it but I dont believe Ive ever seen anyone do it.

smoke run a search for "hyperloop" a lot of people have discused it and there are a few videos floating around.

it helped me figure out what a hyperloops is but i still cant come close to doing it.
