Hey fellow mini hoopers!

Okay so I desperately want to learn how to do the buzzsaw trick and I can't figure it out. Can anyone offer any advice?

I could prob make you a video when i have some more time but try... Putting your arms straight out in front of you, dont bend your elbows at all, shoulder level. Now stick your thumbs out, so the right hand thumb points to the left and the left hand thumb points right. Put a hoop on your thumb and try spinning. You might want to try one hoop at a time to begin with. Then two hoops at the same time, then two hoops alternate time...thats it.
Thanks. Are hoops spinning in opposite directions? Did you make a vid? I appreciate your hoop help :)
I keep my buzzsaw on my fingers (facing each other, pointed in) rather than my thumbs. I think the hardest part is keeping the hoops parallel. They spin even if I start spinning with them already in front of me, but if I transition in from another move (even just hooping at my side) they get real weebly. Maybe it would be easier if I used my thumbs...
hi

i'm surprised that its the last video in the series ......I initially thought it was the 'BUS STOP' move ....hahahahaha

I fell in love with this move when I saw it on the first video of the mini hooping class ...
then ran off and bought tubing......here we work in meters ...the size is 19" ....but I have short hands and am wondering if I should cut it further ...cause it seems like its very closeup....

I just started learning last nite (16 feb) and maybe will give it some time before I make a decision...

currently the left hand goes all at an angle and knocks the right hand one ....and the hoop comes so closeup .....but maybe after some practice it will work out .... also to get the two hands to move together is an issue on day 1 late at night ...hehehehe.......
this helps ......I have to stand legs apart shoulder width ...

stretch my hand really way out

and tell my brain 'forward, forward, forward
back back back
Is there a video of the buzzsaw?
yes..... there is safire has it on her hooping with minis class
