Backwards weave

[watervole]

It's taken me three days, but I can now do a backwards weave!

It isn't elegant, but the poi are at least moving in the right direction.

The real test will be if I can still do it tomorrow...

Here's what it looks like and how to do it - though I'm pleased to say that I worked out how to do it without having to look it up.

Ooh well done - I can do it as well, but it feels very awkward and I've so far failed to make it look particularly fluid. It (and the forward version, which is more comfortable) took me a while to figure out - I watched other people doing it for ages, and listened to their careful explanations, but it took a lot of trial and error before it finally clicked.
