How to do Poi Antispin Flowers in Split-Time Opposites

Our intensive on antispin flowers continues with today's tutorial on antispin in split-time opposites. This is probably my favorite variant on antispin flowers--the symmetry of it contrasts with the human body in such a way that I feel like it looks really exotic and striking. Here I'll give you a couple exercises to work up to the final trick as it's easy to lose your timing going through the middle of it!

Your're such a great teacher, I like how you break down the steps even to people like myself who don't have the foggiest how to do it☺️

[@Djenerater]

I can't believe such a dope video only got 5 comments. BIG UP THE 6?

[@shopski]

I knew this move, but this explanation has helped me to understand it so much better and refine my moves.
Doing those drills really helps, even if you feel that the first steps are silly, do them friends :) Those methods really enrich our spinning.
Thanks Drex !

[@Damned_Burnouts]

I found doing the corresponding body tracers instead of drastically popping up or down (upwards under armpit/downwards behind shoulder) is somehow easier for me, even though technically it's not the same flower shape. I suggest to anyone who got this trick down to try body tracing with it to progress into snakes/caps and such.

[@ShadowHawk99]

Good video, thanks. Have you ever considered flipping the video on the horizontal plane, so when you say left it's actually our left. An Actual mirror to practise in same time with verbal instruction

[@higherbeings87]

Brilliant informative video thank you so much, been struggling with this do much and now that you have explained the timing so clearly It's clicked, on the way to success 😊

[@krazyhurrizanextc1739]

I've always loved isolations since I started years ago, and mess around with oppi direction, and technically split time as well. Didn't realize that would basically transfer to this lol sweet

[@evandavis7]

Oh! I just realized why I'm having so much trouble with this one: the rear arm should be doing a buzz saw between the arms, but I've been doing it with both poi in front of my arms. Maybe you mentioned that somewhere and I missed it, but I guess I'll have to start adjusting my muscle memory for this. 😅

Thank you
