Definitely a smorgasboard of tricks this week. The first is a repeating triangle pattern done that is repeated at 90 degree angles to reveal what looks to me like a pinwheel, though the trick takes so long to render the idea may be irrelevant for performance. I tried it this past weekend and got a good response, though. I don't know what to call the next trick--I think it ultimately breaks down to halving the triquetra in split-time horizontally. Most of us know the vertical variation, but the horizontal one requires some arm-crossing action. Next I'm working up to an isolated weave and thus drilling switching between all the isolation positions I know of in wheel plane. I'm definitely pretty far away from the weave, but in the meantime it's been helping me get an isolated fountain more presentable. Next, a whole bunch of tricks inspired by my friend Lucas from Richmond: a plane-bending figure that reveals a Star of David is first up, followed by a figure he and another friend jokingly made up called a "Walrus Eye", which is similar to a basic hybrid where one hand traces the path of the other hand's poi head, but done with a cateye in the center rather than an isolation. Finally, a few experiments with CAPs--poi moving same direction.
