Ok peoples.

I was trying the btb 3bw with sock poi (well, footy socks with juggling balls in them).

And I almost got there, but then I lost it, what I'm trying is backwards first (eg. starting by spinning the poi backwards in split time) and then going into it, right hand first.

Has anyone got any tips for this? It seems to be one of those 'just keep going until something happens' moves, but any tips would be gratefully appreciated as I am experiencing pain beyond measure when attempting this move :P.

Mwah.

(Nearly)Full Moon Party roxored.

Hey, glad to see more tuition vids up! hehe, I like the sneaky advertising on the back of your tee during the BTB 5beat... very nice!

Psychotic Neurotic, maybe im backwards but i found trying to start the btb with my left hand instead of my right helped a lot, going in reverse direction of course, and also as soon as your hand has crossed behind you, the other one needs to cross to the other side and it kinda goes into a weave. hope that helps

Tony Grumbles:

I was wondering, why the 'basic' hyperloop ?(I can do now thanks to socks), so what constitues an advanced hyperloop?

and the sock (untitled) is sick, perhaps you should give it a name it seems to not have one, you could call it the emmawrap or something

True, that socks thing is intense.

I'll persevere, will putting something less weighted in my socks work?

only thing to do is try! it will affect the amount of effort needed here and there for sure, but probably the most important thing is not to put balls in the socks that will break bones.... Smile

Thats good....thank you Felixwah.....barrel roll will be it's name...I was unsure what it was so, you've sorted that for me.


Jas,

Basic Hyperloop for me is just from left to right and back again i think this would be advanced hyperloops....
