Lots of useful threads about hyperloops\airwraps\knots\tangles\nexuseses\randy badgers.



Please post random rubbish in this thread to keep it bumped biggrin



Read These First



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."






[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 spank

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 smile



[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 smile )



[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? confused)



[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 smile



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! ubbcrying



Only included for the sake of completeness



[Old link]

Given it's useful sounding title, this thread is quite shockingly pointless ubblol



[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 frown



[Old link]

simple question? About hyperloops? ubblolubblolubblolubblol



[Old link]

oh god, don’t mention fountains, you’ll only upset cole…

i agree, but it's not that simple for Jon. His imagination doesn't respond to outside suggestion, and instead concentrates on it's own unfathomable inventions.

This means that in general Jon will find a blank wall far more interesting than the average film.

If you ever wondered why he sits facing the wrong way in cinemas, now you know.

Although that's also partly because he likes to see if he can throw popcorn into people's mouths without them noticing.

Hmm... I assume someone here does corcscrew tangles? Yesterday afternoon I kinda randomly thought of doing a corcscrew but tangle when you're "below" your arms (spinning the poi in front of your chest) and untangling when they get above your head. I could get the tangle but couldn't keep the momentum up to untangle on top.

*beats Millenium around the head with a badger*



What do you think this is? a poi forum or something???



Any sensical information posted in here will be lost in a mire of non



this thread is here for all them link things on the first post on the first page. Use that to find the thread about corkscrew tangles, or if there isn't one, then make one.



~have you tried tangling at the top and untangling at the bottom?~



What? i didn't say anything airwraps... i was talking about... um... giraffes? ubbangel

You're think of hot-airwarps, to do cold-airwarps you just need some bubbles and a laser...

(Yay! Realign the deflectors and fire a neutron burst, that'll solve all our problems!)
