Yes I"m back! and this has been posted on another thread, but it seems clarification is needed, so here goes:

from a chasing the sun position, as the poi come down, throw your right poi(while using glowstix with different colors on both ends about 24" in lenght altogether) between your legs and let go of it so it spins in the air, now change hand of poi behind you so that left is now in your right hand, with left hand free catch the opposite color of the poi spinning in the air(timing is critical) and colorchange wrap the poi that is now in your right hand around your right leg! You now are spinning the opposite color that you started with, while transitioning between chasing the sun and BF, with a colorchanging wrap and a toss that swithes hands! High difficulty, but very trippy to the audience! Hope you enjoy [Razz]

uhhh...sorry...but that move can't be done with fire. You can't do a colorchanging wrap with fire! OUCH.

my move is pretty basic but i havent seen any one else do it.. its a turn move.. first learn the low turn while spinning foward turn your body 90 degrees and spin both poi behind your back low then turn another 90 and you should be facing the oppisite direction with the poi spinning backwards
while spinning backwards turn another 90 and spin the poi behind your back over your shoulder almost like chaseing the sun turn another 90 and you will have 360 and should be spinning the poi foward get used to doing those seperately..( you can learn them from the poi lessons page low turn and high turn).. once your comfortable you can do the low turn from a foward weave you have to have the poi as veried as possible not close together after the low turn go directly into the high turn on the same spin and then you can either go back into the weave if your dizy or keep spinning around and around doing low and high turn. its more of a fun trick then diffacult but i dont have any one to help i have to learn all my tricks on my own so screw you [Razz]

when your poi consists of two glowsticks of different colors tied together, with one used as a handle, the other as a swining end, and you swap the handle end for the swinging end, thus changing the color of the swining end, looks nasty...

Aight, the move I use as my signature, which you can pop into from pretty much anywhere and is INCREDIBLY easy (I discovered it in the first week I started spinning) 2 interlocking loops, one horizontal, one vertical, looks a lot like a chain. This is fun to do with several people, making them all interlock. Any spinner who sees you do this can immediately duplicate it, but non spinners think it looks neat and difficult... I'm not gonna tell em it's not [Wink] Happy spinning all!

Three words.

One Handed Cartwheel.

Took me ages to figure out how to do it without hitting myself with my poi and I want to keep it a secret but I'll give a few hints.

Wrist wrap one poi.
Shorten the other.

A color change with poi is definitely possible all you have to do in order to make different color flames is mix different chemicals with the fuel you happen to be using a decent list of possible colors can be found here

ive starting messing around with a new trick last night... you can do it from a backwards weave or just a backwards circle with a glow stick on each end of the strings.. with the left hand continue
to spin in a regular circle or weave with the right hand when the poi is at the bottom of the swing let go of the poi and let it roll up your for arm till it gets to the middle of the string then grab the middle and go back into the weave with both poi.. now the left should be normal while the right is being swung from the middle of the sring so both the right poi are doing the weave so basically it looks like 3 poi are doing the weave then you have to roll it down your for arm again to get the poi back in your hand and get it back to a regular swing.. its kinda hard to be consistant with it but if i keep practiceing i think i can get it down it looks nice when it works...

New funky contorting move,

Swing the poi forwards or backwards and fan kick over say your lef poi with your left foot. Crouch and send the right poi spinning over your left shoulder, looks very freaky, now tyr to get out of it, enjoy!
