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

CJ right arm stalls from a throw, poi, rvs 3bt inverted weave (sort of)

Managed to hit 4 consecutive 4beat butterfly weave utl. Took a while and is very contorted. Got it on camera, not a pretty move at all.

Crossers - Only one. A weave type one I think.

BTB Weave waist wrap hyperloops

And a hyperloop the goes in on the left and exits on the left with some arm crossing and wiggling

turning crossers
BF crossers (both ways)
crosser wraps
BTB crosser

EDIT: after a conversation with nx, I realised I'm doing a crosser and not a straight jacket...

Crosser is just where left hand is on right side and vice versa. One arm is on top of the other.

A SJ is a crosser where your arms are in the same position you'd be in if you had your arms crossed



I think.

that guy looks like clint eastwood is about to come and kick his as in an eiger sanction stylee.

T

an inverted weave (????) with more bits inside my arms than normal.

Learned the Weave yesterday, and the Reverse Weave today, and then learned how to move from one to the other, stoked im making progress.

the sj is like that guys arms but actually folded... meaning his right arm should come over his left bicep..

I feel so small by posting this but I decided to go back to the basics and pick up moves I skipped before.
I don't know when I really learned it, but tonight I tried it again and it worked So I am proud to announce;
3 beat BTB
I kept whacking my legs up untill now lol.

I have been playing with silly tangly wrapping things this week, they're coming along nicely!

Well I am new. I have just now figured out the 5 beat weave on one side and its still sketchy; havent got the left side down yet.

What is a 4 beat butterfly?

head isolations

Yay yay yay 5 beat weave! *deep breath, calming down*

i posted earlier that i got the 3bt btb weave. well i don't really have it! i thought i had it, but what i was doing was not it. don't know what was going on -- a 2 bt maybe? anyway i now have 3 bts on one side but then i lose it. sigh. practice practice.

i HAVE however gotten the isolated ttn, both over and under hand, and an isolated forwards 3 bt. weave (not a very strong isolation on the weave though, but it's recognizably isolated), and the spiral wrap (coming into it from a forwards weave). now if only i could get that isolated buzzsaw....and cleaner flowers...and waistwraps...and the reverse 5 bt. weave...and...

o continuously turning 4 beat butterfly airwrap weave. i didn't even know this was possible until it started working... is this on video anywhere?
o the top half of the 6 beat butterfly weaves.
o umm... and i guess i finished learning all 4 double butterfly neck through-wraps (suicide?), whereas I only knew 2 of them before (front real and btb fake, which i think means both were reverse). now i know them all and i'm more confused about when to use them. thanks poi god.

Yay! Feeling very n00b, but have finally nailed the 5bt weave; just needed to wrap hands further and then try and untangle them! simple really.

Now for the reverse 5bt - nearly there, but am not doing it quite right; it's giving me a sore nose.

And I have a trick which looks totally weird, I haven't ever seen it done before, though I'm sure it has been. I'll actually master it then get back to you.

I got bored....

through wrapping a butterfly weave instead of TTN into it

Good news everyone.

This little kitten just learned the three beat behind the back weave.

I'll be back in a few minutes to tell you i just did it five beat..

Also on that note. I never learned how to do a regular three beat weave.
for some reason when i was trying to learn it i managed to do a five beat and thought that was it and kept on doing it.

I really wasnt looking forward to learning the five beat until some other poi spinner was shocked that i could do the five beat and told me what i was doing.

He said "your doing the five beat weave thats hell pro"
and i just said "........ ......... Bullshit"

The bad thing is, now i have to learn the three beat ^_^
