  • hey alien john :D. just a quick question, is this a linear or a buzzsaw move?

  • @KushAddiction420

    Think of these videos as just geometric inspiration. You can make this pattern in a variety of ways. For instance, If you are doing it as a wheel plane CAP, you could put either of your poi (or both) in buzzsaw plane (inversion frame) or none at all.

    It could also be done more with linear hand movement rather than a half circle arc.

  • Jon please give me some tips on how to achieve this!

  • Try it in wheel plane. Try it as just linear movements up and down at 1st. Then gradually arc your hand path out until it is more like half a circle.

  • hey jon so how are you counting beats for these? 3 beats = total in each hand? so like 1 1/2 in each?

  • nope, just count for one hand or the other. As a reference point, just look at how many times the poi points straight down before the master cycle repeats.

see all
