Same-time same-direction stuff

I always used to think chasing the sun was a pointless move and never really liked same-same stuff. I never could feel a good flow with it and really neglected all that can be done with this type of spinning. You can do pretty mucy all the butterfly and weave patterns with this except it's smae time. Why this never dawned on me is beyond me but I am quite obsessed with this stuff right now. It makes for some very intresting spinning. If your having any trouble keeping the time with these spinning the same way you spin when doing same time bf stuff really helped me with keeping the poi in same time. I really didn't realize the cool stuff you can do with same time when your start crossing your body and it looksliek it's in quartertime or somethign I;m not sure yet I just know I love the way it looks.

same direction same time inversions look sweet... ive only fairly recently discovered same time same direction though, i learnt to crane and from there on in, ive been like this stuff is all really cool Sphism/smilesmiley

I really enjoy doing this too. I started doing this as a fun little exercise -- "see how long you can go without doing an obvious weave or butterfly." I wound up doing a lot of same direction same time stuff, which actually flip into nice chasing moves (I think this is the quarter-time stuff you mentioned) and then back again to synchronized. Play around with different sized circles (but still spinning same time)... and add some stalls in for fun!

ive been playin with these same time thingys for a lil while too...

been gettin some nice bits for floats and btb stalls, kinda got inspired by rastaxle's new vid.

ill put a vid up on youtube soon as i film =]

basicly same time butterfly, 1bt from each hand, both in front then both behind...
and then,
add in a little bit of long arm occasionaly and just 'feel' for places to add in the stalls...
then turn the stalls to floats...
then from floats to cat eyes... you get the idea by now =]

have fun =]
