I think being able to visualize a move if the toughest part, and then once you know WHY the poi are doing what they are doing, you can manipulate them very easily. Unfortunately I am at work right now and can't exactly bust out the poi in my office, so I have to wait until I get home to try the new moves out. Maybe there is a way I can make baby poi out of string and some eraser heads (hmmm...that gives me an idea). haha. 
I'm gonna cut you up so bad, you gonna wish I ain't cut you up so bad.
