amen lilraverboi preach on. your right non spinners have no appreciation of techy moves except something like antispun flowers when they are real pretty. i always do my best spinning when either no one is watching or when i finally get into that zone when my poi become an actual extension of me not something i am just holding. be one with ur poi lol

wow i've only been part of this community for a couple of hours and i've already learned so much. You guys are awesome. Thanx for enlightening me.

anyone else do that technique where you put your wrists together and pivot them, maintaining contact? not like liquid/finger dancing where you follow your fingertips. it's all about keeping your wrists together and just pivoting them.

i remember kids used to do that style all the time back when.

I read every word and i completely agree with you. Practice slow and precisely and learn fast.

You got it!!! Good luck, spinning is a lot of fun, so don't get lost up in productivity and forget to ENJOY IT!

Good point!!! Sometimes its easy to get so caught up in learning/improving that you can get yourself to a point of frustration.. Keep in mind the REASON you are spinning!!! to have fun yo =P..

my opinion is it is not about how many moves you know OR how well you can bring moves together, but how much fun you can have while stringing or doing poi

VERY VERY true! Well stated.

i agree with all of this but there is one thing that i acidentaly discovered one day. USE ANKLE/WRIST WEIGHTS! the heavy weight will make your arms move in the exact perfect way (I havent tried to learn new moves with these yet) im having a very hard time trying to explain this but just give it a try! i plan on learning the btb butterfly weave like this
