Hybrid Moves

hmm, i just gave it a go then. it felt like a hybrid should, and i used a butterfly barrel roll to make it longer / end it. i feel really poi-nerdy

can anyone antispin their hybrids?

i was thinking about it alot on the way to school today, and may have a possible method, but ive gotta wait til i get home.

cheers, pete

mmhuh.

the eassiest one i've found is an antispun buzzsaw fountain.

but there's loads of wall plane things where one is antispun, and the other isn't....

some stuff started to click last night, but i got to tired and went to bed.. while in bed i thought up a couple of new ways to try it tonight.

will post results...

cheers, pete

i been working on a thingy thats kinda antispun and hybrid

but basically i spin an 1:1 antispin circle (one rotation of the poi to one rotation of the big circle)
in split time wallplane

and one of the poi goes up and down, while staying isolated in the horizontal axis, while the other goes left and right staying isolated in the vertical axis.

this produces a single line down both poi (hybrid style) doing a 1:1 antispin rotation like an antispun staff.

Thats the theory anyway. It makes garthy laugh lots when i try it...

I know its not a lot to add to the conversation, but ...... YAAY for hybrids!!!

Trying so intensly to make yourself look silly!

5 beat weave hand twist for extra beat on it's own side other hand leads own side, except it's path is slightly longer as it's connected to an isolating other poi

I just did it....in my head.... can you do it....on/in your head?

Iv made a little progress with hybrids but they still generally bend my brain for the most part, I think it looks like Im disco dancing when I try them...

so i got asked on tribe to put up the raw footage of the short hybrid section from EscapeFromRiversidePark,
so here it is:

Its being processed so it may not be up quite yet, but try again a bit later if you don't get it. also, as i said on tribe:

[Quote]it's slightly lame because

1) i don't play with fire much, so was not doing anything interesting, like inverted hybrids, antispun hybrids, or tangled hybrids
2) I didn't plan it at all, so i repeat quite a lot
3) i only turn in one direction! hah! how suck-worthy is that[/Quote]

as you'll see, these are oneshortonelong hybrids (original Andy house!) none of these newfangled longpoi hybrids....

i disagree with the prettiness comment(but i'm a cone purist, and don't like how any of them look with fire poi) as i think the long poi ones look slightly forced, cause you have less scope to work with them.

i know it was andy who showed them to you. funny how the ones he showed everyone else were short/longs eh

goddammit take some credit, monkey!

A video doohdah with hybrids in there somewhere. The Same poi length type with no anti-spin hybrids....


Around 21 and 44 seconds

then around 1 min in I try a isolated weave sliding to hybrid...
Kinda like that isolated double staff thing (Well that's the idea)
trying to slide one poi out of the isolation into longarm...

Vurry nice sir!
What an amazing effect that hybrid weave has. I also dig your wall plane antispin (1:21). Thanks for sharing.

purdy
I still can't get fwd 5bt for some reason... It always ends up quarter time

Yeah.

You may have noticed that my backwards hybrid was somewhat quarter time

I don't think I've even though about 5bt hybrids!

Man u kick so much ass..... I love ur style..... I wanna learn those hybrids so bad but its taking so serious practice..... How long have u been spinning?

Wow..... Keep up the good work man...... Yeah Ive only been spinning for about a year or so.... I have alot of catching up to do b4 im at ur skill level But im workin on it :P
