Well I don't know if this is worth posting or not but I thought I share something I've never seen anyone else do (only having seen a dozen or so spinners though what can you expect). Oh and I'm gonna ask for some new stuff from people as well
Basically I do a forward butterfly (haven't tried this with reverse yet, *ting! idea :)8*) but I have my hands seperate so there are 2 circles in front of me from this I can go over my head or behind me and so forth, this also works with corkscrew movements. Side to side might also work, hmm.
If anyones got anything funky.....

*Oh, just for a minute,* my bed said.
"Don't lie to me," I grumbled.
*But you're so tired...*
back from the dead...sort of

SUb, I do that too...when doing any move with wrists close together I often separate them for 1 or two turns and then go back in. Injects a bit of vareity into a series of plain circles, look very nice indeed.

Alternatively you can move both your hands up and down together (regular Butterfly) or left and right (split-time Butterfly) to make an oval/elliptical (ie squashed circle) shape.

They be talking about varying the timing of your poi in a butterfly.
split, wide split, overhead variations of the butterfly. there are several explained, which does you need help with understanding?
