I just got this along with a 2beat weave, the waterfall, and a few airwraps, and I managed to pull off one hyperloop too! Been spinning for only 2 days now

I never saw this before because I started doing poi a few weeks ago, and I've learned 5 beat, airwraps, buzzsaw(buzzsaw being the same as fan in diabolo), and I was working on behind the back weave off of your tutorial and I got this on the second try after seeing the trick one time, hopefully I'll learn the other beginner tricks here as easily. thanks

I started hooping more or less one month ago and I loved it! And today I made my practice poi to start poi too, and I got the butterfly immediately thanks to you video! you are a very good teacher :)

you are the best teacher Nick! I love the way you explain things thoroughly and are so encouraging! I have a great teacher here in upstate but I always check out your videos between my weekly lessons for the best tips and encouragement! Thanks for making the videos so available to everyone!!! <3

Gah, i cant get the hang of this! I skipped learning this because i thought i wouldnt have to use it anyway but a few videos down the line and it comes back to haunt me! So frustrating...
While trying this my tethers keep messing up, or the balls keep hitting eachother in midair, its really anoying and I have tried watching every vid, and people tried to explain it to me, but it just keeps happening.. Its so damn anoying..

I bet you're not really following the steps.
Start with your arms. Do big circles. Do they hit each other? Probably not. Learn to switch which arm is coming down on top of the other. Once it feels natural with your arms, it will probably work with the poi... but it takes practice! :)

Ha ha! You only know the Nick on camera. I think I would be a good catch but maybe I move too quick? Thus I'm single. Donna is my mom. She took some of the photos in that other videos, so that's why she's in the credits, plus mom's should always be in the credits of films.
