Makes more sense now. It's a stall with a restart in the original direction?

I had a look through the threads but couldn't find any direct reference to this question, so here goes -
Does anyone do spiral wraps with fire poi?
I've seen some people doing quick wraps and catches with fire, and these thigns are easy enough with normal poi, but I just wondered whether I'm likely to use the skin off my fingers by trying this.

spirals are ok, do wraps fairly early in the burn, cos hater the wick heats up too. Be very confident in what you doing and dont panic if they catch... just abort.
havent seen thsi one for a while.
pozee,
I dunno about fire, but theres some badass glowsticking stuff around, I like www.gyrauroras.com cos they are sweet kids and have good turtorial videos. tho a compleatly diffrent terminology than hop or spherc.

Wait... pozee?! Huh? I'm confused. What year is it?
Um... you know there's a whole "Video" section now right?
Not many people do vids of wraping poi. I do a ton, but that's why the cool kids tease me.
Wait... what are you asking?
So... confused. Did I fall in a timewarp? Didn't you fall off the map years ago? And didn't you used to do crazy wraps? You're the king!
I'm so lost...

S'ok. I just did my first cross over wrap today. Falling to the "I know there's some new stuff that I wanted to practice but I can never remember anything when I'm actually HOLDING my poi" syndrome for years on that one.

Sorry guys, gotta plug the good ole www.glowsticking.com
So, who has done/heard of duowraps with fire poi yet? If no one's attempted it I am prepared to fry myself in the process. Duowraps... tutorial- http://www.glowsticking.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3350&st=0
Or check out my video in the media center. I am rearing to see this done with fire...
EDIT- Yes, I have a good video of these crazy kids doing all sorts of wraps with fire poi, including spirals. It's called Fire Tribe @ Cyberfest.
Hit me up on PM if you want me to send it to you.
--------------------
To do: Working on Firedrums 08 video
Some things I missed recording - Yuta looking confused after we asked him to teach us "Hadouken"

ok, nice wrap vids for sure, but am I missing something there? because I am not really finding all that much info on wraps besides 10 or so "wrap 101" lessons. is there more than that and the search just isn't pulling it up for me? seems like there should be with it being glowstringing and all
nice duowrap BTW - I got something similar to that with fire but i like you variation with the double around the first arm. what I do (learned from poibox) is something between that and a handcuff wrap (maybe an opened handcuff wrap?). basically around both opposing wrists and around bouncing on the home wrist - same as your vid but both hands at once and no doubling around the first wrist. got is solid with fire (as does poibox).
another I have is a thru wrap from forward weave, left poi on right forearm, then bringing that into a buzzsaw pattern bringing it into forarm wraps with both poi (so left poi has a wrap on right forarm and one on left, right poi has two on left forearm only, arms held in T-shape with right arm pointing forward and left arm across body). Bring it out by rotating 180 and making isolation type wiggle movements to get the whole thing into to snap out via reverse buzz saw. watch out for the tricky flop the left poi likes to do to lock itself while you are turning.
can pull this off about 50% or the time with sock poi, and actually managed it once with fire but it wasn't pretty (hoping to perfect it by Falmouth). Actually beginning to think it is easier to avoid the left poi locking with ballchain than with sock poi.

yes. PoiBox does them and does them so well I quit trying to do them because I knew I would never be the master. Not really, but he is so beutifully fluid with them and up until seeing him do them live, I thought it was an inherently clunky move - I was wrong of course.
