16-18 looks a bit like a windmill, but her right hand is always in the front wallplane and her left hand is always at the back. Well...they would be if her planes were straight tongue

In basic terms she's just spinning one poi behind her and one in front, in split-time.

Will those capable of telekinesis please raise my hand?

16-18, she changes her planes, goes into butterfly time and then throws it horizontal, looks like horizontal mexican wave?

Spin, bounce, be one with the world, because it is yours to enjoy...

The more I look at it, the more it looks like an overhead butterfly in split time. the planes are wobbly, but if you watch her hands, that's my best bet. There's a bit of an optical illusion as her left hand drops back almost into a btb, it looks like both poi are travelling in the same direction, but they arn't as there is no direction change until she comes out of it.
