So this is a video of me practicing hoop/ poi combos. Then closer to the end of the video is my fire hoop/ poi. I'm trying to learn some more tricks that I could do, and ways to bring the hoop up to my waist while still doing different things with the poi so any feedback is greatly appreciated!! Thanks and hope you like the video.

      Actually Tedward, I made it look like that on purpose. You see if you play it backward, and at high speed the pixelation of the video shows you a formula, that if followed exactly will tell you how to build your own Fire Hooping/ Mutant/ Freak/ Zombie Army!!!!! So make fun of it later when I am taking over your back yard with my Fire Zombies!!!!!! BRRRRAAAAIIIIIINNNNNSS

          HAHAHA....Whew. That makes a very good point. I thought you were talking about the camera focus!! I'm still horrible at this. Hopefully this will make me remember more.

            nice flow & style!

            i don't spin poi, so i can't offer much feedback. the only variation i could think of was maybe some angle hooping while doing poi moves above your head?

            i'm impressed with your leg hooping. i have to practice that more.

              I was kinda thinking that too. Maybe some thing like:
              Spin poi over head (mexican wave)
              bring hoop up to waist
              wrap poi tight
              drop hands below hoop (inside)
              drop poi
              pull hoop to neck
              low spin poi
