Poi move ideas

the other day i saw my buddy do a isolated hyper loop anyone else done one? could you? if anyone else has any moves that to "our" knowledge there are no videos for please share

Is this what your buddy was doing?

no thats actually somthing completely different very interesting though but what he did was a isolated weave and from that to a isolated hyperloop like a isolated buzzsaw and another idea i just had and have done a little bit is a split time butterfloop

split time butterfloop works fine, just an adjustment in hand position. Not quite sure what you mean with the isolated hyperloop but I am working with antispin&inspin motion from orbitals if thats relevant? I think maybe the inspin orbital might be what you describe...
infinate hyperloops also have a rotational handpath even though they are not isolated, might appear that way though if you haven't seen them before...

i think tat may be what i am talking about cuz now that i think about it i think it was a infinite

I've done the anti-inspin with orbitals, antispin tends to make the orbital fall apart and loose momentum pretty quickly.

I know what the trick is. I can do it one direction but is very difficult. Its like a hyper loop but you dont give it the same amount as power. Instead you isolate it, it does have the same concept as a hyper loop in that it has to make an odd number of beats before you can release it on the other side. I've always called it crossed isolation. I like this trick because amongst ravers that spin it trips them out. Isolation but better

This trick is an Inversion.....the only difference is that you are allowing the chains to touch.

Old school Tech.

I've done this a lot on accident practicing an isolated buzzsaw. I think it's cool because I can go from an isolated buzzsaw to an orbital and it looks so cool

didn't think of that tankpoi, hit the nail on the head

as far as i know inversions the poi rolls around your arms. With the trick I know as this as a tangle trick. crossed like a hyperloop, not inverted like when you go into a straightjacker

no new random moves that you havent seen on a vid? come on now people i know someone has something up your sleeve

Well, I've come up with so many random stuff that I can't recall most of it without checking my poi diary. Just off the top of my head is floor plane waistwrap, behind back floats, pulling OH stalls to an extension, etc.

Floor plane waistwrap? How does that one work?

i would be interested to see that could you post a vid

to comment on the original discussion, I do believe an inversion with the chains touching would look like an isolated hyper-loop. I do inversions and these happen by accident often.

i tried a floor plane waist wrap a little while ago and deemed it impossible... i was clearly mistaken. my only option now is to track down any one who knows how to do it and lock them in a room until they teach it to me.

ok, so i have to credit pineapple pete and G with this move. it's called a mid-airwrap.

hold the poi from the head spin in same direction and airwrap. as you airwrap, let go of the poi and as the poi twist together and untwist, the handles will swing around towards you. catch the handles and pull out of the airwrap and keep spinning.

for my part though i like doing isolated fountain, not as easy as you'd think cos you gotta work hard to get that windmill section properly isolated

this is an interesting thought never thought o that sounds like i have more stuff to add to my list

Yeah try the isolations behind the head and while you're at it also try the behind the head cateyes, though it only seems to work in one direction.

For the floorplane waistwrap, you have to go beyond the mental constraints of your body being static while the poi move around you. Instead imagine how the move should look like and then move your body accordingly to make the move possible, in fact this is a good suggestion to follow for all other poi tricks. Don't let your body get in the way of your poi.

Anyways, first learn 'the matrix' which is essentially a corkscrew under your back and if you keep exploring other floorplane spaces you'll eventually stumble upon the waistwrap.
