The simplest hyperloops
This is basically just a list of all of the simplest same direction hyperloops - those that don't go inside your arms or do multiple beats. It's worth practising them all so you can stick them pretty much anywhere in your spinning.
Vertical hyperloops
These tangle on one side of your body, you move your arms across rigidly (i.e. keep them locked relative to each other) and they untangle on the other side of your body.
Starting on left side of the body, end on right side:
* Left hand at 12 o'clock, right at 6 o'clock.
* Right at 12 o'clock, left at 6 o'clock... this is harder.
Starting on right side of the body, end on left side:
* Right hand at 12 o'clock, left at 6 o'clock.
* Left at 12 o'clock, right at 6 o'clock... this is harder.
This is for forwards spinning... you can do the same thing going in reverse, but swap round which one out of each pair is harder 
Matt is doing some of these on this video here
http://www.spherculism.com/tutorials/hyperloop/hyperloop_fwd_across_outside_FV_MV.html
although he's tangling for two spins rather than just the one - notice the poi spin twice before he moves it across.
Horizontal hyperloops
These are the same thing as above but entering and exiting with hands at 3 and 9 o'clock. However the difference is that they don't go from one side of your body to the other, they go from one side of one arm to the other. These are probably the most handy ones to be able to do IMO, they fit right in with straight-arm spinning where your hands are already in the correct starting places relative to each other.
Spinning forwards
When spinning forwards the hyperloop travels under your arm.
Starting on left side, left hand at 3 o'clock, right hand at 9 o'clock. Left arm remains in the same place throughout move.
* Right hand to the left of your left arm, tangle, bring right hand underneath left arm, untangle
* Right hand is to the right of your left arm, tangle, bring right hand underneath left arm, untangle... a bit harder
Starting on left side, left hand at 3 o'clock, right hand at 9 o'clock. Right arm remains in the same place throughout move.
* Left hand to the right of your right arm, tangle, bring left hand underneath right arm, untangle
* Left hand is to the left of your right arm, tangle, bring left hand underneath right arm, untangle... a bit harder
Spinning backwards
When spinning backwards the hyperloop travels over your arm. This is trickier due to gravity, I've found that you need to make more of an effort to make sure the wrist on the arm that remains rigid helps in bringing the hyperloop over.
Starting on left side, left hand at 3 o'clock, right hand at 9 o'clock. Left arm remains in the same place throughout move.
* Right hand to the left of your left arm, tangle, bring right hand over left arm, untangle
* Right hand is to the right of your left arm, tangle, bring right hand over left arm, untangle... a bit harder
Starting on left side, left hand at 3 o'clock, right hand at 9 o'clock. Right arm remains in the same place throughout move.
* Left hand to the right of your right arm, tangle, bring left hand over right arm, untangle
* Left hand is to the left of your right arm, tangle, bring left hand over right arm, untangle... a bit harder
All of these can be done in different planes and at different angles... 
And to be complete they can also be done with different numbers of tangles i.e. tangling twice on one side and then untangling twice to exit. But there's no inside the arms/tangled buzzsaw bit in any of these

The simplest hyperloops
One other thing... you can do airwraps in all of these positions as well
The simplest hyperloops
If this is
I dont want to see the list for the complicated ones....
do you differentiate between 3-beat weave hyperloops and 5-beat weave hyperloops? That way people can associate them with something they already know . . . mho
The simplest hyperloops
Good work spiral.
These are the basic ones i guess, but there are lots on that list that i can't do. Plus I always found the 'outside to outside' hyperloops that you describe much more difficult than the buzzsaw variations, which i always thought were just hyperloops.
Anywho, that's why the hyperloop section of the site is so confusing, cos everyone refers to different things. I'll stop confusing matters.
Do you reckon you could add some links to the spherculism vids so that we can see exactly what you mean, although i know not all of those are up there ~ come to think of it i'm not sure any of them are up there.
Of well, Enjoy,
¦m¦

If you do a 3bw hyperloop from left to right and right to left (continuous) you have a 3 beat weave pattern - only with a hyperloop on ever side.
(Forwards from right to left the right Poi is leading the hyperloop and vice versa)
If you do a 5bw hyperloop from left to right and right to left (continuous) you have a 5 beat weave pattern - only with a hyperloop on ever side
(Forwards from right to left the left Poi is leading the hyperloop and vice versa)
The simplest hyperloops
When you say continuous do you mean that the whole thing is always tangled? In which case you'd need to isolate the whole thing all the way round.
Still not 100% sure what you mean... hyperloops are different from weaves, and the hand movements don't correspond as far as I can see.

Actually I never wanted to give out this link again - cause it is OOOLD.
But anyways - sharing is caring
OOOOOOOOLD

The simplest hyperloops
Hey I remember downloading your isolated weave videos ages ago!
Anyway you're doing both types I'm talking about here... the vertical ones I describe are what you call 3bt and the horizontal ones are 5bt.
The simplest hyperloops
Yeah, the good old times ! I was young and needed the money . . .
But why horizontal and vertical if they are both played in the vertical wheel-plane ? And the video is only the 3 beat one . . . ?!?
The simplest hyperloops
I called them horizontal and vertical to a) distinguish them and b) becuase they're easiest to learn in those orientations I found. But I did say you could do them at other angles
So for the 5bt ones are your wrists wrapped like you were doing 5bt weave when you tangle?
The simplest hyperloops
Hyperloops with wrapped wrists - would be a tangled weave then
The difference between the 5bw one compared to the one on the video is that the other hand is on top and hence the other Poi leading from side to side . . .

Surely I've already mentioned above both of these...
[quote="My first post"]Starting on left side of the body, end on right side:
* Left hand at 12 o'clock, right at 6 o'clock.
* Right at 12 o'clock, left at 6 o'clock... this is harder.

just thought I'd pipe in.. the hyperloop is outside to outside.. the inside part is seperate and adding it is a variation... most people ALWAYS did hyperloops with the variation buzzsaw part in the middle because.. well.. regualr hyperloops are kinda dull.. they bounce and come back out.. UNLESS... you hold them longer.. in which case they don't transfer throught the center as easily... but end up doing more twist up and untwist beats..
hyperloops are an awesome place to start because they do the work for you... you tanlge they spin to the other side on their own.. you just kinda gotta make sure you go with them.. althought if you do one with your hands in front of you it will do the whole thing on its own..
