but how do you manage to catch a poi that you throw directly down towards the floor...?

Quickly!

You catch it in the other hand as it goes past, it's more of a drop than a throw I guess. The one coming out of the top can be thrown a bit more nicely though.

Reeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaddddddd.

As for all the crazy terminology that's flying around here, plug it into the forum search (Up there ^^^) and see what comes up.

1: [out|buzz|buzz|buzz|out]R (right poi spinning in right side outside plane)
2: L[out||buzz|buzz|buzz|out] (left poi spinning in left side outside plane)
3: [out|buzz|buzz|buzz||out]R (right crosses over to left side outside)
4: L[out||in|out] (left passes through inside to right side outside)

5: [out|buzz|in||out]r (right spinning in left side outside)
6: L[out||buzz|buzz|in|buzz|out] (left spinning in right outside)
7: [out|in|buzz|||out]R (right passes through inside to left side outside)
8: l[out||buzz|in|out] (left spinning in right side outside)
9: [out|buzz|in||out]R (right spinning in left side outside)
10: L[out||in|out] (left passes through inside to right side outside)

13: [out|buzz|in||out]R (right crosses over to right side outside)
14: L[out||buzz|buzz|buzz|out] (left crosses over to left side outside)


repeating steps 5 to 10 equates to spinning a 3bt inside weave.

but i think that means something else too namely a weave with all the beats inside. this isnt the place for a discussion about names and i dont really know what is what when it comes to terminolegy.

basically i think of it as a notcoleman3 because i learnt it after i learnt the notcoleman5 which is basically the same except you let the right poi come to the right of the right arm from the centre, instead of moving it to the left outside. and likewise with the left poi when its in the middle.
