Anyone here into Firetwirling, Poi, Staff or otherwise. I love poi, but havent got any fire poi. Im not really anygood, Im so lazy, but whenever I whack on a CD of some good Psytrance/Goa, It makes me untie my shoes and connect the shoelaces to an old set of glowsticks and Spin! So umm... Post about fire twirling!
iv never tried it, it seems really cool. I love watching others tho lol. I'll learn...someday =] peace Jane
I like to go raving a lot. So, I end up using glow sticks on strings as well! It takes a lot of practice so that you don't hit yourself with them. I'm not really great but I can hold my own for a while! I love watching it though. Try looking up some on youtube or myspace! It's some amazing shit when your high!
fire hooping count? I've dabbled. We have a great group, Colorado Fire Tribe with sunday night practice. so cool to see a bunch of subcultures come together for pretty fire!
OH OH ME!!! *raises hand* Addicted to poi and fire. Though I do hope to get a set of fans down the road, and a pair of fire snakes wouldn't suck either... Been spinning since last September. Did my first burn in December and now that the weather's nice, my hub and I (he spins too) are getting out a lot more. If I ever get this video editing crap working, I hope to have a small little vid made outta the bits we've accumulated so far.
yep, i love poi i'm not too good, but it just kinda helps to express stuff. love fire poi, too. they look so great in the dark. also got hold of a fire skipping rope last year, that was really cool, sort of like being in a bubble of fire, light and warmth. hoping to get much better this summer... anyways peace and love
I am addicted to my poi!!! Love it love it love it! Have been doing it for years and I can't see myself stopping anytime soon! Here is a photo or two of me twirling.... A bugger it....they photos are all huge when I post them!
I'll try again.... http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s14/Ryn78/fire3.jpg http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s14/Ryn78/fire2.jpg http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s14/Ryn78/fire1.jpg
Theyre some nifty pictures. Ive seen a few photos of people making it look like flowers n stuff... I want some pasta
Thanks! I wish the exposure had been about 2 seconds longer. I believe 3 of those pics were from a sequence of me doing a wallplane-butterfly-flower thing.
Toss some tennis balls into a pair of tube socks and give it a go! Home of Poi has some basic lessons and if you surf around the web and youtube, you'll find a ton of helpful instruction.
Found this today in one of my links folders and thought this would be the perfect place to share. It always makes me smile and I think I was pretty misty the first time I watched it.
