I just learned a new move (for me that is). I learned to weave forward and then turn around so it's going backward, then turn sideways so its going front-back a while ago. anyways i was in the forest the other day with my friend practicing and i started doing a weave where i could go from forward weave to backward weave and just continue turning my body so i was just spinning round in circles! apparently it looked pretty cool. I know it's not some amazing new move but i've only been doing poi spinning for like a few months now.
my head is still spinning though

sometimes I wish I could go back to the beginning, like this when I was learning 5-6 new things a day... now I'm lucky to learn something new each week..

Damn, Rev, how much time do you have to practice, you lucky thing?
I learn so slowly... and have no time to even try...

I too, have just learnt to do that today - what an amazing coincidence!!
Its just a shame when you get carried away with it, get too dizzy - then its starts to hurt (a lot)

Haha, I learned how to do that a very short while ago myself and the first time I managed to get it I went a little overboard and got a bit too dizy... I had to sit down for about 5 minutes before everything stopped spinning ^^;

I do it with the 5-beat.
The good thing about is is that you can't go around in your circle as fast, so you don't get dizzy!
Mr. Flibble - how's the btb weave going? I keep on hitting myself.

well i finally got btb weave (forwards) down a few weeks ago now.
currently trying to learn reverse btb weave, and hitting myself a lot. always in the same place on my legs. i'll get there eventually.
i think my ultimate goal is to learn at least ONE of the jedi set
