"poi-like double yoyo spinning"

Holy cow batman, that's just silly.

Very crazy stuff, couldn't tell what a lot of it was. I'm at my dad's with no speakers, was it in time to music? Still looks a bit like 1 trick, next trick, next trick etc. Although a lot of the 'tricks' are insane combos.
Still mind blowing tho.
I wonder if the yoyo-ers discovered tangles before the poi-ers, not sure. I guess it all happenend around the same time.
I do know that the old idea that poi hyperloops come from diabolo hyperloops isn't right tho, cos the 2 things are completely different.
Presumably all that stuff is possible with poi.
Thanks for the link.

most recent yo-yo post from shawnf
shawnf's yo-yo wrap video
poi and yo-yo crossover
and for matt - the yo-yo origins of the airwrap (reportedly 'discovered' in 1999)
i think the name hyperloop originates from diabolo but the basic airwrap idea started with yo-yo's

The American Nationals are good too. If you look at the forum where Shawn and I have been posting about yo-yoing in the Toys section. Then you shall find Shawns video, where he is doing some very nice tricks, also links to webpages of the videos from the USA Nationals and a shop where I buy my yo-yo and strings etc.
