i can do a 7bt weave, kinda, not sure if it counts but i can lock-out then let go of one pass it over the top and then finish with a five beat weave, seven beats all together but im not sure it counts as seven beat weave

okay guys ther's a wee bit of confusion here....

there is 2 different ways to do a 7 beat weave, and 2 with the 9.

to do a 7 the easiest way is to just let the poi wrap around your hand for an extra-beat then bring it back across.

and the other way is to do a non contact wrap... where it wraps around the sock rather than your hand.

to do a 9 beat you can do as the poster in the video did and do a small eclipse or you can do a long contact wrap.

Smile hope that helps you guys...

by the way what is a 6 beat weave? that does'nt make sense haha... unless ... no i cant figure it

I found you can do even numbered beats by doing both sides as if you were doing them odd, but one more beat each side.

E.g. : 4beats = 3beat motion one side, then as you cross to the other do the 5beat motion.
it works. Count it.
Looks terrible though lol
