Airwraps and Hyperloops
A funky article by Dom, introducing and explaining the terms airwrap and hyperloop.
Includes this important observation:
[Old link]
an excellent 'how-to' guide for the most basic tangling move from Professor Coleman. The thread that started me hitting my poi together on purpose.
[Old link]
This thread is basically what got all the techie people into Hyperloops and Isolations. Here you can verify that this stuff is all Glass’ fault
It's massive and has lots of interesting stuff (if you skim past the occasional bout of arguments/accusations)
Butterfly Threads
[Old link]
Dom & Dantana explain the whole tangly butterfly thingy
[Old link]
Dantana, Coleman, Poibox and Nix? explain the whole tangly butterfly thingy
[Old link]
includes MORE useful stuff about butterfly thingies from Dr Dantana. He knows his thingies he does…
[Old link]
Starts off describing recoil-wrapping one-poi from a butterfly tangle. Goes into more general butterfly tangly advice.
Buzzsaw Threads
[Old link]
In fact… it’s a tangled buzzsaw
[Old link]
OK thread, but not enormously informative or helpful.
[Old link]
advice on how to keep buzzsaw tangles going. Good stuff.
[Old link]
Oli explains stuff about adding and removing twists from tangly buzzsaws (with nice diagrams )
[Old link]
not particularly informative or helpful
Helpful Theoretical Type Threads
[Old link]
More than what it says in the title. Messed up tangly conversations.
[Old link]
i reckon this is a very useful thread for advancing your understanding of tangles in general.
[Old link]
The effects of rotating hands contrary to spin direction. Reducing the amount of time you spend untangled.
[Old link]
Horizontal tangly stuff and a bit of general chatter. Definitely worth checking out.
Wierd Moves n Stuff…
[Old link]
Three awesome new tangly moves (with video) from the Reverend Rev
[Old link]
another great thread by le chat bleu with many funky ideas to play with…
[Old link]
Good description of and advice about… between the legs airwraps
[Old link]
(but... aren't all hyperloops atomic?
)
[Old link]
Groovy idea from Tommy Nixford. Needs long poi.
[Old link]
Stuff about how to get lots of beats in airwraps
[Old link]
Stuff about how to get lots of beats in airwraps. again...
[Old link]
stuff about tangling poi then stalling them...
[Old link]
"...like some freaky astrojack/meteor mutant monster!"
[Old link]
Horizontal tangled throws from Dr Dantana
[Old link]
“you can put bouncy balls in socks then go tangle tangle bounce bounce tangle bounce.”
That’s about the size of it. It’s a short thread
Other Useful Bits
[Old link]
General advice about learning. Very useful.
[Old link]
Argh! Terminology debate! Mummy, i’m scared...
[Old link]
sometimes hyperloops make you sad PART ONE! :sad:
[Old link]
sometimes hyperloops make you sad PART TWO!
Only included for the sake of completeness
[Old link]
Given it's useful sounding title, this thread is quite shockingly pointless
[Old link]
Some stuff about turning with hyperloops. Not enormously useful.
[Old link]
Some random stuff – ball chain, 3 beat corkscrews, teabags and cone-shaped gravity…
[Old link]
Mainly descends into terminology confusion
[Old link]
simple question? About hyperloops?
[Old link]
oh god, don’t mention fountains, you’ll only upset cole…

Airwraps and Hyperloops
A funky article by Dom, introducing and explaining the terms airwrap and hyperloop.
Includes this important observation:
Written by: "Dom"
"The word "hyperloop" was first used on this board by Glass in October 2002. Since then there has been constant debate about what a hyperloop actually is. Ultimately a hyperloop is part of the airwrap family of moves and it doesn't actually matter what it is or what it's called as long as you're having fun."

Tongs for grabbing badgers and pulling them out of their setts
The Attorney General is citing Clause 52 of this recently declassified dossier as PROOF that the violent use of sporks on badgers is indistinguishable with the use of purpose-made badger tongs.

Is that a homeless (or homed) man (or woman) in the forest (or wood) all hunched (or crouched) up under a green blanket (or cloak)?

*puts finger in ear and pretends to wiggle ear piece to hear better*
Hello Jon
Well right now all I have left for you are some peanut butter rye bread sandwiches, Cheese and pickle rolls, some assorted cup cakes and a large pot of Chia tea all spread out on a red and green picnic blanket. So far no Badgers have been seen but the spork people ate all the trifle.
Back to you in the studio Jon.

dopey and the 7 dwarves are all in church when dopey pipes up "sorry but i've just got to know mr preist are there any 3 foot nuns".
"i don't know" replies the preist "maybe you should go and ask the bishop"
a week later dopey's dragged all the other dwarves along to see the bishop,
"excuse me mr bishop but i've just got to know are there any 3 foot nuns"
"i don't know" says the bishop "maybe you should go and ask a cardinal"
a wekk later dopeys dragged the rest along to find the cardinal" excuse me mr cardinal but are there any 3 foot nuns"
"not that i know of" says the cardinal, "maybe you should go and ask the pope"
so off they all go to the vatican to see the pope.
they get in to see him and dopey says
"excuse me mr pope sir but i just have to know are there any 3 foot nuns."
and the pope replied "no dopey there are deffinitely no 3 foot nuns"
