A few bits of fun perchance...

Heh... the matrix is an example of a move that I teach better than I do.

Yo, blue, there was a "reverse matrix" which wasn't just the same move backwards that I couldn't learn at EJC because my brain was full... it had like circles behind the head or something... what's up with that? Please explain it in such a way that I will immidiately get it without any effort or practice. Thanks!

And where's the video?

well, i think that proves i don't get those moves at all then!

although i'd hazard a guess that if a reverse matrix is not just the same move backwards then it may be like a reverse fountain type variation of the matrix?
i.e. the large movements are counter to the direction of the poi rather than with them.

of course i could just be guessing badly again...

hes bad at nameing too, the matrix is really just a front waistwrap with an extension in the middle, but done horisontally, the round the back corcsrew is one where the corkscrew instead of comming above the head drops below the shoulders and coutinues corckscewing behind the back. both of them you need to have super flexible backs, which i dont got, so i dont do em, but I do understand.

p.s. cor, three posts in one day, maybe im warming up....

thanks tom.

(just found a bloke with a camera...)

and your memory's abit fuzzy too. maybe youre geting to old to teach 'real' class with test tubes and beakers and stuff

the one with circles behind the head is the allthewayround corkscrew. but i was teaching them together, so i can see why.

from all this---^ tis obvious its easier to describe contact staff moves than it is poi moves.
migh t give up and return to vids in 4 months or so....

Eyes and brain now boggled from trying to make sense of text!
Bluecat- you any further with getting a vid of these? It would be awesome.
I really cant work out what goes where from stuff thats written down!
Sounds good though!

biyatch, you know you're in trouble now for renaming inverted weaves. and on top of that making the explanation much more cryptic than even i could...
especially after i made a point of begging to get to name something on hop in exchange for all my slaving over a hot stove/typing. oh well who needs you punks anyway... i want a divorce...

renaming inverted weaves? i got another move i call inverted weave.. what do you mean?
do you mean the "notcoleman5" ?
must have completely misunderstood you when you were describing them...

sorry

Hehe, thanks Glass.
Oh, and i have a special pressy for you...

Glass, you're mind is truly on the right level!!!

A mand and glass..

arashi my inverted weave is a wall plane thing going inside arms for 2-4 beats(depending on wierdity)


BUT!

or inverted 7 whichevre you like to call it.

Big shout out to all you poppies out there, Inspired by Existance

Hey guys... I'm going to try and pick up on this notcoleman whatever stuff sometime when I'm not on the fforum via my phone... In the meantime, this is some fun stuff...
Moves required: buzzsaw, 5bt weave, isolations
Starting on the right side of a forward weave, right after the seperation when the right hand comes over the left hand (twisting up) instead of the right poi going over left and staying outside, bring it over left and inside.. (Basically like starting a buzzsaw one beat early) you will have to do this semi-isloation to keep the poi moving in a buzzsaw... And you will be doing a hand over hand buzzsaw.. Which you can then go into any number of things... You can exit it with a hyperlooping buzzsaw, or a regular buzzsaw to weave, or you can tanngle and untangle the buzzsaw right there in fron of you, depending on how you isolate... I prefer to weave-tangledbuzzsaw- buzzsaw- tangled buzzsaw- exit weave...
What I like most apart from being able to tangle and untangle a buzzsaw, is the way it looks.. When the poi start to move around the arm(like when the right comes over the left arm into the buzzsaw) your strings will start to curve around (they don't wrap) the arm and then the isolation motion keeps them arc'd like that.. Making it look like you have curved poi...
*shrugs*
Maybe you'll follow that descrip.. Maybe not.. But if you do.. It'll give ya something fun to play with..

Brain gone fom trying to read this stuff!
I'd love to have a go at some of these, but unfortunately my brain doesnt work from looking at text explanations of moves.
Bluecat- you mentioned the possibility of maybe getting these on video? Is this possible, as i would love to see them?
Much love to you all.

Oh yeah, and for Glass and PoiPoiPoi-

I Don't understand why you've called a thru wrap a fake airwrap....

I do a move I call a fake airwrap where from bf the chains hit each other and bounce off across you in the wall plane leaving you in a reverse weave.

hehehe i don't care if it was a boo-boo... you're STILL makin the meatloaf tonight. beeeeotch! and of course my attorney will contact you regarding copyright damages. say goodbye to your pampered aristocrat lifestyle, you just bought a one way ticket to the "hippy farm."

at arashi

dream it's precisely because it's not an airwrap.

the one your talking about is definitely an airwrap. so how can it be fake?

this is the closest thruwrap to an airwrap. hence the name.


soon mand.
new vid been getting there for a while but due to a serious mix up in who and where it was going, I now have the tape. and no way to upload.

will sort out!

love

to bluecat for his troubles.

[Raises hand sheepishly from the back of the classroom...]

"Can I got to the nurse's office? My head hurts!"

my thought was that an airwrap implies the chains wrap round each other....

my one has the strings bounce off each other rather than wrap, hence fake airwrap
