"Full Waist Wrap" I never fully understood, other than being what I'd call a proper (;)) waist-wrap, but then I don't get why you'd name something "Full", as this just means it's the proper/complete version

In my mind, "waist wrap" implies something being wrapped around the waist, which the "split time tuck turn repeated" doesn't have.
But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

Hi sp1ke333, I posted a link to a sample video at media circus. It’s from the Gandini club swinging dvd, and has a full fountain. The lower part of the fountain is a waist wrap.

Incidentally, i'd like to point to the top of this thread at the large words saying "Poi Moves".
Take all your badly named club swinging moves with you, and don't let the door hit you on the way out

I'm all for making terms more economical to use, and I accept that maybe a lot of people don't recognise the term 'full waist wrap' anymore, but I also don't see why we have to abandon terms that've been fairly well defined (in Anna Jillings' book, the wikipoidia, Michal's poi book and, I think, the Gandini club swinging dvd), for a while now.
A wise man once said: "You have two ears and one mouth, therefore you should shut the up and listen" (though, to be fair, he might not've put it _quite_ like that..)

Also, if it strictly means a certain move, how would you explain w/w butterflies, 5bt w/w weaves and such-like?

.."For a while" being since they all got the name from the Schatz book, I'm thinking...

however I would possibly offer up the suggestion that many of the poi spinners I know use the term waist-wrap to describe the position, as opposed to specific move - what jugglers would call a half contortionist I think (or half straight jacket?).
Possibly as many of them haven't read club swinging books or Drew's-I-mean-Michal's poi swinging book
