uhm... well, im trying to learn the btb weave, as i can do the btb butterfly, i want to be able to have NO problem with it. this btb weave is gonna bite me hard... i hate it but i need it... also working on some isolations, they are my favorite move but i just cant seem to do it within a weave or anything... the poi smacks me on the chest, then again, its stretchy....

anti-spin is basically moving your hands/arms in the opposite direction to the poi, for example and antispin flower is when the poi are moving forewards (or backwards) and your arms are moving backwards (or forewards)

Not exactly sure what the move is called... but it is an air wrap stopped by your hands and rolled back to the opposite direction, rolled to the other position, etc etc etc..


I always call it a 'tick tock' as it looks just like a devilstick tick tock. I've been working on doing hyperloops that go into one of these and then back through a reverse hyperloop then out.

There's a couple of things that are driving me nuts at the moment: btb waistwraps, turning btb weaves, btb butterfly weaves and much under leg stuff.

Right now? Well just today I realised you can do a Buzzaw with the poi spinning in opposit directoin and TTN those in the wheelplanes.

Never heard people talk about that... might be beacuse it's old... Or new...

Cheers!

Do you mean butterfly buzzsaws Mireneye? They'e a very useful trick, as they're used for flowers and for getting into butterfly hyperloops. I'm trying to work out how to invert them, but it's decideldy hard.

Yea that's probablly it. However when i'm doing it, i'm actually doing that TTN motion where you really go up and after your arm to let it spin half a circle (as with TTN, hope that made sense). Somehow I'd like to think that Butterfly Buzzaws are easier... Since you don't do the "over and under" thingy.

I think I never understood what inverted means in poi terms? could you explain it (just a simple move that can be inverted) ??

The things I do know about is... Antispin, Isolations, Clockwise and Counterclockwise, The different planes, and a fair bit about atomics. So where does inverted fit in ??

Another thing i'm completely oblivious about is Nexus... What does Nexus mean in poi terms ??

Today, I've only tried to tidy up my body turning while stalling poi, nothing special.

A nexus is the point where 2 poi are tangled. It is the centre of spin for an airwrap (static nexus) or a hyperloop (mobile nexus)

Inversions are inside out or upside down moves, I can't explain them at all, so I'll leave the description for Rev

However not sure i understand your description of what's going on. Are your poi spinning in buzzsaw plane or in the wall plane?
