The Official HOP "I just learned a new move" thread

hyperloop snakes look cool but I'll let Spiralx describe it- clever bugger

As far as poi in your mouth- heisenbergs don't work to well (sadly) but its nearly possible to get split time chase in your mouth... though its not recommended with 6 month 'gone everywhere been dropped in everything' poi handles... I had the taste in my mouth all evening.. YUCK!

thanks to the clip of simian in the falmouth 3 vid:
forward antispin weave!
just have to work out the reverse now...
Are antispin weave turns possible?
hmmmm...

WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! after several weeks of frustration ive finally got that damned move where both poi are goin clockwise and you entangle them, turn around and they magicaly unentangle .................. whats it called?

i've been playing around with switching the poi in each hand while doing weave, tis good fun opening a few more possibilities

2 diabli vortex, yum

Got a nice whip catch from a wrap/throw combo this morning!

Oh yeah, and I got some more flowers to work too!

been doing some nice 2 handed wibbling, it's got a lovely rhythm to it, Like when you see someone with 2 devilsticks doing double propellors. But with wibbles the poi just tick tock direction and bounce high and low.

Been mixing in some behind the back throws and tossing dibbles to opposite hands, all of which really messes with my head and could definitely be called "2 softClub juggling"

I figured out how to tangle on the right outside my arms then bring the tangle into buzzsaw and then throw the poi outside my arms on the left and it always comes seamlessly undone. I can do just a buzzsaw tangle, however this version <always> comes undone. And I figured out hyperloop butterflys, the trick is to go forwards butterfly and buzzsaw them for half a beat till the strings tangle then stand behind it again, they untangle everytime. I linked both of these tangles togeather with a bounce wrap on one arm yesterday.

wooo hoooo i just managed to do hyperloops...yeay!!

its taken me longer to get than any other move and i managed rip my nosestud out in the process!

yippeeeeeeeeeee

i just got hyperloops too!! but i can only do them with socks at the moment, that still counts though, doesn't it?

also have unlocked the uh 5bt weave, clockwise 4 bt corkscrew (so much harder than counterclockwise for me for some reason), and "the matrix move," for which i clearly have to build up lower back and abdominal strength to do repeatedly. can only do that one counterclockwise so far. also, antispin flowers.

been a productive month.

Got my first clean whip catch last night, I've got the idea now at the least.

Sorry to but in-- Please recommend a forum where I can find out what the devil half of this stuff is???

Antispin--flowers--matrixmove--wibbles--?? *so confused*

erm......I think you're already in it

or

you could wander over to Spitlefields Market on a Tuesday night

Unfortunately the Spherculism encyclopoidia is down at the moment, but when it's back up it's got definitions for all this stuff...

Spitlefields Market? Is that up north like Shropshire??
*Not looked at a map yet*

I just learned to take my 3btweave under my right leg , round the back, and back from under my left leg... I have to make a mighty hop/leap halfway through though, think I need to shorten my strings for that one!

Spitz is in London-
