I still can't quite get the hyperloops. I can wrap them on one side but when i bring them over to the left I can't get them to unwrap.....what am I doing wrong? [Weave]

could be a whole bunch of things i'm afraid.

as i say to miss bells quite a lot, "it's not the tangle thats the skill, it's the untangling that matters".

all i can say is practice lots and watch out for where it is failing.
they're really awkward at first so don't get angry if they don't come naturally...


yay! for )spanner( - i hope you live on the ground floor though... [Eek!]

Hands up who only got hyperloops after reading Cole's instructions at the start of this thread.

[wave]

Now i want similar instructions for all other moves you can do. In your own time...

@ spanner

simian - what do you want a description of next then sir (can you tell my evening courses are coming to a close)?
i'll chuck it my post-modernist thread since that actually started out as an attempt to share ideas on pendula... :
i think so far on hop i've described the most basic hyperloop i know and like i said before, some pendula ideas.

i won't describe - moves that invlove the word 'beats', fountains and waistwraps, isolated moves.
in fact, thats about all i do i think!
still, if there is anything else i'd be happy to do some extra typing - i've kind of neglected poi moves for the last few months...

over here too.

I wouldn't mind knowing the theory behind hyperloop outside, bring it into the middle and use isolations to keep it tangled and and then outside to exit but I wouldn't ask you to explain that.

good cos i can't do that

i've started getting decent 180's out of tangled buzzsaws (going low on the turn) but never use an isolation motion.

on friday i worked out a 360 bf hyperloop thingy (my first tight bf hyp) which i'd forgotten until just now

in fact, they're the only two new things i've learnt with poi in *ages*.

I agree with coleman.. I can do 180 and 360 turns with hyperloops, but not using isolated motions... however... when doing the corckscrew ones, I started out suing isolations and then stopped after finding it was easier to do it without them...


edit: nevermind I'm a dumb@$$... I do a somewhat isolation on my turns but I don't think that really counts since I only move my hands 180 and not the whole circle.. <-- meaning half an isolation circle not a full isolation circle..

just popping in here without reading the whole thread...
i think you guys are wasting your time. sorry

glass pegged it when he mentioned that you don't have to enter from a weave.

there's more airwraps. even this particular kind you're calling hyperloops, you can enter from any move where you hands are that far apart, you guys haven't broken it down far enough yet and that will become evident soon. my suggestion... just count the times it rotates while it's in the "tangle"(<=== neutral term ) if you need numbers.

i'm off to eat some tofurkey

wasting their time? i disagree. not a helpful thing to say...
finding the entries that are all over the place just takes time and perseverance.

and anyway.

i've found in turning and multiple beat hyperloops i don't need to count anymore.

cause it feels different if it wants to exit. and if not then it just keeps going....

ps also guilty of not reading rest of thread...

rrrr... uhhh... i meant counting the beats added on to a weave to describe a hyperloop. i believe, a quite useful suggestion, a hint even, i wasn't trying to sound like i was shooting down.
i did read that part of the thread

ok.

i'll agree with you there.

'basic' and 'multi beat' does it for me.

That's not what I'm talking about though. You isolate and keep it tangled in buzzsaw position in definitely.

Would a 180 turn be where you tangle for example on the right and turn right 180 to the other side to untangle, as opposed to tangling right and moving back to the left to untangle...

I don't think anyones arguing about beats on this thread anymore, well I certaqinly don't want to...

t's'ok.

just a post increasng misunderstanding

180 degrees to me implies you start in forwards and end up in reverse. or vice versa of course.


those indefinites are hard. isolations have to be nailed to keep it there.

much easier to get multibeat by moving it around methinks
