Wink lol whenever you want davey Smile

a choo choo is one poi spinning one penduluming constantly. And you pendulum it every beat so it looks like a choochoo really fecking hard to get the timing. Like pendulum direction changes head blagging!!!

i think that shortening the poi that is penduluming helps a bit but i can get it smoothly every 2 beats i think you might have to isolate the spinning poi to get the speed right which would make it a hybrid lol. i will report back on that one anyway Smile

Yeah they do look pretty damned awesome it must be said!

So working on the BtB tricks now eh?! Smile
They are a lot of fun and do look excellent when you get them done! So much to choose from! 2,3,5 bt weaves with takeouts and lockouts Fwd and Rvr, Waist Wrap Weaves, Waist Wrap Butterflies, BtB TTN!

They all look just as amazing as the next trick. So best of luck with those! Lets us know of your progress Smile

Adding extra beats on TTN (Thread the Needle) You can get 4bt TTN which is quite snazzy. As well as splitting them to get up to 6bts which also looks pretty awesome!
