Sitting there doing the motions of poi while your office mates glare at you in sheer disgust and yet a sense of intrigue! |

yeh you can so exactly the same motion with butterfly buzzsaw. And elipses are basically cutting the same except your goin from 3 to 9 one hand at a time
antispin for example is poi fw but arm movement backwards.
so for your buzzsaw fountain your arms will be making a big circle the same way as your poi aintispin will be your arms making a big circle the opposite way to the poi.
if you do butterfly buzz fountains one will always be antispin as they are spinning opposite
hope that made sense :D |

I made this for another thread, but I thought it might be useful on this one too, for anyone who's still not sure on these things...

For a full fountain, you're aiming to make 4 big circles in the air (see my lovely little picture here). It's basically a 180 turn and then another 180 turn back.
Here's an attempted talkthrough...
1. From a forwards weave, the first circle is your entry into the fountain. Just a normal circle.
2. As you go into the turn, bend your knees and make a low circle (around where your knees are).
3. You're now in a reverse weave. Just for one circle though.
4. As you turn back, bring your arms up, making a circle around head height.
1. Turn back into a regular forward weave. That makes one complete fountain! |
