Lindalinda, did you pick up those meteors in China? The bowls look very heavy. Im super impressed with the simplicity of some of those combos. It kind of gives me some inspiration for some new avenues to explore.

Im still working on getting smoother on the horizontal rotors so that I can improve those bounces.

Yes they are from china, rubber bowls so they don´t hurt as much as my fire meteors (when they smack me in my face)

They are.. quite heavy.. I think it´s easier that way, at least the trad. things. Let´s see how it works with some new things!

Thanks everyone for inspiration!!!

Wow, damn fantastic video! It's a pity I'm stuck in poi mode at the moment, I need to practise my throws more often. I especially loved the somersaults - I'll have to keep an eye out for the bowl meteors as well, they look awesome!

Who was the other guy? I'm pretty sure I saw him in Brisbane, Australia last year.

Thank´s!!

Emil? I´m sure he would love to go to Australia but I don´t think he has ever been there.

I just posted a rather lengthy article having to do with different variations of weaves with meteor. Check it out here:

(I would have just posted it into this thread but it was three pages long when I typed it up in word, and didn't want to just throw a ton of text into this thread without warning.)

Short video demonstrating a little move I came across.

Meteor Knot

hehe looks like a new kind of sport!

I was telling Chris on Tribe that it reminds me of Rob's old spinach session vids and the work on negative space.

Ahh yes... Robs poi tied in a bow. That was a fun trick to learn, more reasons to get counterweights...
