    Not crazy. Just fun :). I practiced for quiet some time spinning poi before I did it with fire. And we always take precautions. Fire Extinguisher, wet towel, etc.

    Thanks everyone. I got into this through my boyfriend. He is very good at it. About the facial hair, if your careful it won't catch. He has a 6" goatee and its never caught..pretty soon tho he's gonna have to tie it back for safety.
    You can use a lot of things to practice with. Get a pair of long tube socks and put tennis balls, or juggling balls, or even a bag of rice in the bottom and swing with those. The ones in the pic I'm using are a ball chain with leather finger loops and the ends are wicks coated in fuel.
    Check out www.homeofpoi.com or www.domorepoi.com for more info ;)

    Yeah everyone hits themselves a lot during practice to try new tricks. I had jaw surgery recently and had to give up poi for almost a month for recovery cuz im always hitting myself in the face lol. (ps. never try new tricks with fire) :-D

    Fire poi definitely requires a lot of skill and hard work - but the results are amazing!

    That's gorgeous. I have a couple friends who do that. What I find really remarkable is how noisy it is! I find you really attractive, by the way.
