Hyperloop.

Okay so you're going to learn to hyperloop. The first thing is to make sure that you can effectively perform lockouts (aka eclipses) during your weave, and also you should be able to move from a weave to a buzzsaw efficiently

So do a 3 beat weave and instead of parting the poi completley... part them half-way and let them catch each other around half way down there length.

When they catch you want to draw them across your body between your arms, then to part the poi from the tangle you need to push your right hand just further across your body than your left.

I know you said it had to be short... but its a complex move haha!

Short Description!
Its an airwrap sideways :D

Angel Wings are a variation on the butterfly and look very impressive, but for beginners can be a little hard to master at first.

1. Start by spinning the basic butterfly in the front plane.

2. As the poi come to their very bottom raise your hands over your head and behind (this is one of the hardest points of the trick, you can have VERY bad headaches at this point)

3. By Pointing your hands downwards, complete one butterfly movement behind your head (you can do more if it is more comfortable but one is normally enough at first)

4. As the poi begin to move upwards bring them back over your head to go back to the normal poi. This completes one angel wing, repeat for a 2:1 ratio (two in front and one behind) then move to a 1:1 ratio.

Congratualtions you just mastered the Angel Wings.

Right, the windmill. A.K.A. the mexican wave.

The easiest way to learn this is to first know the chase the sun/shoulder reel. I'm going to be kind and tell you how to do this as well to save u the effort of going to annother page Very Happy

(with a cheesy air-hostess grin)
Start with both poi on one side of your body, I personally find it easiest starting on the left. swing them both up in a big circle keeping your hands just under shoulder width apart. When u feel confident enough doing this, at the top of the swing flick the poi over your shoulder and complete a full rotation behind your head. At the top of the swing, again, bring thepoi backin front of you. Well done!!! Very Happy

The windmill/mexican wave is the same except your hands remain over your head and one poi is spinning slightly in front of the other (but not far enough infront to be classed as split time, more like off-beat).
And there you go Very Happy

*rubs cheeks* (How do air-hotesses grin for that long?)
