afternoon all

the name is splinter and im from Dublin in Ireland, spinning just under a year but advanced pretty quickly i think, just about have my infinite hyperloops down and waistwraps/btb and others are sorted, working on wibble combos and plane manipulation. thought i should stop trawling this site and actually post a message or two around, nice place Smile use a set of the poi poi firechains myself, lovely heads but the handles and chains dont suit me. although i reccommed them for beginner-intermediate fire spinners who wanna start fire Smile

see ya round

heh, yeah WW are a pain alright but all i did was practice over and over with one hand up in the air with no poi and just practice swinging the other poi over and over again and repeat til both hands know the move inside and out...

i presume ya can do btb 3beats in forwards and reverse yeah? if not then ya gonna have to get them first...well just get used to going 180 and 360 with btb3beats in both directions so you know em inside and out too and then itl just happen all of a sudden Smile

butterfly waistwraps are a whole different kettle of fish though...

oh also just remember when doing waistwraps your forearm (back of ya arm) goes along the base of ya spine/back and bends around your waist, ill try get some photos of it tonight so ya get me.
