easy now ppl my friend showed me a nice move. me n my mates call them hypercuffs which basically mixes an air wrap with cuffs, as the poi wraps you cuff it half way thru. this opens up alot of possibilities on the hyperloop front. has anyone heard of these or have any other hyperloop releated moves.

Aren't they a glowsticking move- I think I recognise them from there but I can't remember. There are loads of hyperloop moves and combinations. Airwraps and hyperloops can be done all over the place.

I suggest you look on http://www.glowsticking.com which is really good

thank you for the advice. however i fail to see a difference between "glowsticking" and poi they are the same discipline arent they?

They are VERY similar but

Glowsticking is based almost solely on wraps and wrap combos whereas poi is fluid and graceful. Glowsticking was also started by ravers for raves- so its usually very fast.

it is not too good in the day time but awesome at night- poi- always good no matter what time!!!


Hope this helped!

yeh it was cheers. i have played with glo sticks but i find them far too light especailly for btb moves. checked out that website and i was pretty impressed and am goin to try and encorporate some of the moves into poi especially wher they grab the poi n move it round there body with there hands.
