The Official HOP "I just learned a new move" thread

Ok, I'm a n00b so bear with me....I managed the 3b weawe bw for the first time yesterday and also linking it together with the 3b weawe *happy* but only in one if I go right. If I try going left I get tangled - can't seem to get my arms cooperate. But hey who's complaining...??..new move and new link all in one day

had a wicked play with the princesses yesterday

i learnt:

antispin weave (fwd poi rev hands)

thank-you monkey, it finally sunk in - took a while but you was right, i like it lots


also learnt some longarm stuff that i never bothered to before (longarm follow-time turns, longarm bf with turns).

and i'm relearning wallplane 2bt weaves cos i'm rubbish at them.

"antispin weave (fwd poi rev hands)

thank-you monkey, it finally sunk in - took a while but you was right, i like it lots"



We tried learning that at Falmouth originally didnt we?

I have started to like anti spin too. Video to follow sometime

simain still needs to teach me that anti spin weave thing....
or anyone else for that matter....
I have no poi at the moment
Soon I shall have 2 new pairs

recently learned how to tuck a weave under my shoulder, and a 4 beat windmill, and 4 beat corkscrew.

I finally got the backwards weave yesterday, which enabled me to learn weave turns and the fountain! Also learnt the 4bt chase the other day. Now I'm working on it backwards, squee!

Sorry for being hyperactive, I've had no sleep and too much caffeine...

So last night I did btb waist wraps on fire for the first time!



scary - but good!! and only a few burns on my troosers

since a couple of weeks I can do the one (right) handed butterfly

ive been playing around with swoping my poi between my hands during butterfly tangles which is a bit like magic, ive also got one 360 turn nearly working while doing butterfly tangles.

also learnt to go into the 'barrel roll' bit of a buzzsaw weave forewards from the right side, and then come out the same side and get into a backwards barrel roll bit.... that make sense, also 360 spins while in the barrel roll. and stops/wraps.

i have had a problem with a reverse 6beat weave...

last night i just started doing it! YAY

i'm also trying to do an inverted weave wich uses the wheel plane as it's base! The 3D pattern (in theory) looks kinda like a double helix!

hmm.

loads of negative space stuff, about 15 differnet places for airwrap, held airwrap exits, and oh yes, antispinweave to a-s flower and back to as weave(oh yes, incidentally i learn antispin weave too )

In the past two days, I have figured out the butterfly weave. Now, I am trying to learn the 7bt weave. Damn it's hard to do! I have given up on BTB stuff for now besides BTB butterfly, my calves ache too much...

love nad light,

:R

i like that one.

i learnt a new way to teach btb waistwraps the other day.
2 successes in twenty minutes each.

i got btb crosser weaves and a very clean entry to a straight jacket and got spinning sj's.

after much persuasion from the rest of the group for me to show them BTB weaves (which i have never done), i finally have made a point of teaching myself this... 2 days and it's almost clean...

th joys of sumthing new! Should be able to show them this tomoz!

more filling in:

btb waistwraps the ways i couldn't before with turns - still missing one cos of a crappy bottom carry.

rev-rev flowers and a.s. flower the other way is coming along nicely (i saw jonnneeee ucof doing it perfectly which helped lots).

that 3bt weave with an inverted beat thing - got it backwards now too (no isolation on the inverted beat though ).

ww airwraps.

bf airwraps (1 & 2 beat).

and my isolated weave now comes with free turns - proper isolated fountain is on its way...

turning an antispin weave is confusing me lots but it'll probably sort itself out once i can do it backwards...

my shoulders ache today.

btb 5 beat and im so happy altho i nearly gave myself a black eye

I have learned BTB thru wraps fwds and rvs and can even link them turning and keep it BTB. Butterfly Hyps to double wrist stall, or single wrist stall back into tthe weave or another regular hyperloop. I can consistently catch the poi behind my back and and can do some throws that switch hands so you catch with other hand keep turning and throw it in the other direction. Favorite new move regular hyperloop-rt hand throws it under left arm and catch behind the back. 3 bt weave fwds BTB. TTN BTB transitions to the front of my body. Follow time and same time BTB waist wraps where you reach around and poi are in front of body again. Butterfly time BTB WW is very beautifull. My Isolations are getting seriously isolated, I had to slow down beacause I was isolating them so hard that it was spinning closer teo the poi head and teh effect was so much different. I put red tape on the middle of my ball chin so my isolations stay centered.
I really want to learn same time Isolations that travel on all planes, soon, I will spend a couple of hours today trying. I love reading the tricks that poeple are learning. Every one should try a double wrist stall in the weave, and as the poi leave your arms start isolating them, they come off your arm looking like sticks. Good luck everyone see you at Burning Man!!!!!

a snake - right arm, poi spinning clockwise in wall plane

thanks jet for reteaching me them with clubs yesterday and thanks jules for planting the seed in my head.

Wrap combo thing.
btb weave just beacause come out and into normal foward weave, wrap and hit your upper tighs(careful guys)and bring them around back and give them a little wrist flick thing and end up in btb reverse butterfly. Tried to do some flowers. Butterfly flower is easy. Anti-spins boggle my mind. Anyone feel kind enough to explain. PM me, i love you?

I'm so happy!!!!!!!!!!
I finally got the reverse 5 beat
I've been trying it for two weeks now and I can finally do it absolutely right! Ok... i'm even happier because i've been spinning only for 1,5 month now and this one I figured it out all by myself! It feels great and it doesn't hurt anymore lol
No seriously... you can't imagine how often the kevlar hitted me (well... maybe you can) but especially the first week it spent more time on me than on the air
Oh, it's going to be a glorious day!!!

Isolated buzzsaw, w00t!!

Still need to clean it up a little (mabey more than a little) but I've got it!

Oh yes!!!!!!!! I'm doing fricking backflips!!!!!!!!

It's taken 3 years and lots of tears but I finaly got the reverse 3 beat!! (I know it's tame but it means alot to me).

But wait! There's more! I got the 5 beat (forwards) about 20 minutes later!!!

And just to finish it off! Hyperloops are now mine. I'm in such a good mood. I'm going to go spin for the next few hours.

I feel so much better. ^^

i got a straightjacket

ahhhh, but can you get in and out of it by yourself...?


cole. x

sometimes, but i think i need to eat less then itll be looser and ill be able to wriggle out easier
