My most awesome move would be a regular backwards btbweave, and then instead of swinging your poi to the other side, you swing it in-between your legs while simultaneously doing a turn! Its fun to pull off and can be very smooth when you do it right!

Haha, I just pulled off my most awesome move ever! From forward weave, I did a 720 on my toe, somehow kept my planes where they should be......and then SLAMMED my poi into my boy-parts as hard as I could.

Once around, then twice around, then fetal position on the floor. I am so very happy that I was the only one here to see that.

My best move is someting along the lines of a fountain but with 18bts (7bt isolation weave > Windmill > Rev 7bt isloation weave > Windmill > back to the begining).

I luv trasitional moves

Next up would be my Butterfloop (inside or out)

Then my 4bt Rev TTN with mini throws.

Soz that I posted three moves but i couldn't decide which was the best.

I have to say I'm rocking the 3 beat weave and the overhead butterfly. Mind you, I'm a newbie - have been poi-ing for only a couple of months. On average 3-4 hours per week if lucky. I love it so!!

My coolest stuff is all fairly simple poi with cool ballet bits underneat. I've found a chasse-passe-tourjete combo while just doing a basic spin on a wheel plane works really well and travels a lot. For leaps though, I like to do a barrel turn (turning over on my side in midair) while spinning. I also like to start a performance by doing some random spin while doing pas de boure cause that's what everybody thinks of when they think "ballerina" and that's kinda my schtik. It's an excelent opener and the little kids love it! It's also deadly easy to turn with either 180 or full 360s.

3bt weave but instead of bring the poi back across my body i throw the left one over my head catch it and then go into 5bt weave, brilliant when it works, disasterous when it doesnt........

Most impressive? dunno how you would judge that exactly, really it depends on who's point of view you wanna take. The ones that always get a big oohh and aaahh from the crowd are my Poi Matrix (sometimes extra spins thrown in) or a bent over backward buzzsaw, usually kneeling, with head touching ground. But neither of these moves are terribly hard to do once you learn em.

To me, my most impressive move at the moment would have to be a half waistwrap to behind the back under the leg (under crotch?) step back into outward overhead throw down into 5 beat weave. Not exactly one move... but its one combo i've been working on....

atm i would have to say my new most impresive move to me anyway would be a alternative forward and backwards spin then releasing the one of the poi when its behind ur back and (correct me if i am wrong on my termology i think its a whip catch but i ent sure)then swinging the other poi so it catchs the poi nice and low and then i catch it when the other poi releases it.

That and also probebly just a chase followed by a realese and catching it with the poi again
