my go this is so confusing. somehow I am spinning with my right backwards and when I try the "give me 5 from behind" it ends up forward. My brain hurts when I try to figure it out. T_T

I drilled two holes is tennis balls and pulled rope through.
Works really well. I also made sock poi which, in my opinion feel alot more natural.

alright, i posted this a month ago... i am SOOO much better now!!! i still have sock poi too, it just takes lots of practice and hitting yourself. For me it helps to turn your body a bit... after that try to spin like he does :)

Turning inwards gives you more range of motion than turning outwards.
The trick is: the way your arms twist is reversed if you do this exercise above your shoulders.
Think of your shoulders as a horizontal axis of symmetry.
Hold your right arm straight out to your side. Twist it clockwise and counter-clockwise. Notice that below the shoulders inwards is like counter-clockwise, but above the shoulders it is like clockwise. Get used to both feelings, gain control and happy spinning!!
