+Circle them around the silks wide and come back through the middle of the silks, then behind you once more.
-Bring your feet together. This position will support you. If you forget to bring your feet together, it's much harder to maintain this position.
+This can be done with both feet at once, or alternating twists in an "eggbeater": left leg twist one, right leg twist one, left leg twist two, right leg twist two. Try both and see what works for you.
-Pull up and step your feet back into the slack 'stirrups' to create a footlock.
+Bring your feet together below you with straight legs. This position will support you. If you forget to bring your feet together, it's much harder to maintain this position.
 You can do this one at a time if you wish, which eliminates the need for using your arms so much in a pullup. However, it's somewhat easier to get even footlocks if you do them both at once, and it just looks showier.
-Note that these footlocks are somewhat opposite of the traditional figure-8 footlocks. The silk poles will end up outside of your feet rather than on the inside.
+Note that these footlocks wrap opposite of the traditional figure-8 footlocks. The silk poles will end up outside of your feet rather than on the inside.
