Has anyone come up with their own unique trick totaly by accident?

My friend was trying to do a takeout and for some reason when her right hand poi went over her shoulder she swung it to the left side of her head as her left hand poi swung under her right arm. Her arms were not being obediant that day and because of this she ended up doing a crossover double takeout (or an alternative alternative butterfly for those of you that know takeouts by that name)With plenty of practice we both can now do this on both sides without too many head injuries.

I have learnt most of my recent tricks this way. I just freestyle, and just clear my head, let my music take over. Sometimes ill do something and i will think that looks kewl, and try and do it again. If i do then im happy :D

Well when was spinning with some socks the other day I did something that i have no idea what it was.

It starts as a normal 3bw, then when the poi are on my right side (as if your spinning them) instead of bringing them all of the way back to the left, I do a buzzsaw inbetween, then to the left, then over to the right again. No idea what it's called if it has a name.
