Poi Lesson 46: Isolated Buzzsaw

Isolated Buzzsaw

Lesson Type: Advanced

Prerequisites: Watch my introduction to isolations video

Alternative Naming: That cool trippy move

In this tutorial, I'll show you how to do the isolated buzzsaw, which will probably be your first isolated move. This move looks great and feels pretty nice too.

DON'T GIVE UP!

You can do this move, the potential is locked deep within your heart, and with consistent and focused practice, you will bring that potential to the surface. Have fun.

Enjoy,

I did do it shorter now i dont hit myself but i just cant get the timing right :/

[NathanielEverist]

@MrSorrow696 sounds like it'll just take a bit of adjustment to get used to, if possible, you can try using the longer length, but just hold your arms further from your body, without seeing you do it, it's hard to give advice.

so I have been trying this and when i kinda think i almost got it i hit myself in the chin multiple times :/ this is very discouraging :(

[NathanielEverist]

@MrSorrow696 Yor poi may be a little too long, try it with slightly shorter poi.
