Defined ~ High Turn

turning out of a shoulder reel/chasing the sun to end up with poi spinning opposite direction than when u started.

[quote="poikid"]so to limit a high turn as entering reverse and exiting forwards seems misleading as you can do it the other way...

I think most or all of what you see here actually fits into your definition. But yours looks like the broadest.

I'm going to ask this purely for the sake of discussion:
Could this apply to ceiling plane moves? If you moved the center of the circle up and then turned under it, for example.

It's not the same thing, but it's something to think about.

I thought high turn and low turn just applied to a moti0n that you use with a reel.. ie.. when each poi are on the side of the body that that arm is on.. right arm and right poi on the same side for instance.. and both poi are spinning same time..

thus you get either a high turn or a low turn...

you can't get that in the ceiling plane because you can't spin a same time ceiling and floor plane circle and turn.. and even if you did.. high and lwo become irrelevent.. so much as left and right.. unless you do a ceiling and floor plane circles while leaning over intead of doing them standing up.. in which case you are leaning over and should understand high and low turn as you would when your upright...

So what we have here is something like this:

High turn - Any turn done while the poi are at the top of their swing. For example, if you swing two poi backwards at your sides and turn while letting them swing out behind you to come down spinning forwards when you stop turning. Only applies to vertical circles.

Yeah, I suppose it is kinda confusing... :oops:
That's what I get for writing things late at night.

So then:

Any turn done while the poi are at the top of their swing. Only applies to vertical circles.

High turn

A 180 degree turn where you turn as the poi are in the top arc of their swing.
