Muskelunge member Registered: 06/10/05 Loc: Chicago	Judging from some comments when I was spinning at a recent dance, people were most impressed by the changing sizes of circles. It's sort of ironic that we go through all this trouble to learn all sorts of technical moves, and the thing that really confuses onlookers is when we wrap the poi around our hands a little bit. _________________________ The Guide is definitive.

The key is making the wraps look fluid (unlike me)

Muskelunge member Registered: 06/10/05 Loc: Chicago	It wasn't even something as complicated as that. I was just shortening the poi during a weave, and it completely confused people. _________________________ The Guide is definitive. Reality is frequently inaccurate.

Mireneye enthusiast Registered: 10/10/05	Right now, i get most "OOOH" from other spinners when I first go behind the back Butterfly then I bring the hands even further around to do a very close-body butterfly infront of me.. Difficult area to spin in, I might add.. planes are not stright, but man.. people still think it's pretty insanse..

Drudwyn Forget puppy power, Scrappy's just gay Registered: 27/08/05 Loc: Southampton Uni	Currently it's the 3 to 1 front plane same direction goofy butterfly flower that Diablo Andy taught me... it feels so nice to spin too, and you get a 3 or 4 beat antispin flower with a big circle slightly offset. _________________________ Spin, bounce, be one with the world, because it is yours to enjoy...

Fefnir Member Registered: 12/11/06 Loc: Arizona	Written by: TinklePants Mine is the amazing "hit my self in alternate eyes and shoulders while doing a btb 3beat weave." I've tidied it up now so i hit my eyes less often Hey, its getting there, dude! O.O How does one manage to hit their eyes on a btb weave? _________________________ Stan Fox: Damn these glasses.
