Did a search and it didn't turn up anything.
So, I'm trying to learn watermills and failing as I don't really know what i'm actually doing other than a windmill in front of me that goes through my arms in a wierd way. I want to learn it as hopefully it will then help with buzzsaw flowers.
So can anyone give me a breakdown on what the poi are actually doing?
Thanks

it shouldnt go through your arms..
point your hands down and do a windmill/ corkscrew..
some people might tell you it -has- to go btl, but there's no difference between btl and doing it between the outer and inner planes.. kinda like doing a windmill that goes from the outer plane to between the arms and face rather than behind the head..
I'm not sure why you think a watermill will help with buzzsaw flowers.. there's nothing buzzsaw about it.. nor does it help with the crossovers in a buzzsaw flower.. those are just turning buzzsaw crossovers.. like high and low turns with a buzzsaw..
