Why is the btb weave impossible?

your signature makes me smile

Paddy has super heavy fire poi that I've tried to spin...but I normally get to tired and just start hitting myself with them ...'sides if I used them to much I'd start to look like a body builder

ha ha

I have a friend named Rob that has some wicks made of 10 feet of the 4 inch wide wicking (that is 10 feet each!). These suckers wiegh a riduculous amount when soaked (but the flame is oh so awesome - see them lit )

Now Rob is a pretty solid guy (as in built like a diesel truck) and can actually manage these things. I pick them up every so often. They come close to ripping my arms from their sockets if I put any speed on them at all. Over the head tricks nearly send me flying.

Rob practices with racquet balls fill with led shot.

Rob is a nut.

One day he will die of severe blunt head trauma.

I'm sure I'll find him lying on the ground, bleeding out of his ears, with a big smile on his face.

blunt head trauma lol haha

My wicks, as Sunspot mentioned, are terribly large and send me teetering all over the place as well, vanize...especially towards the end of a burn when I'm tired.

They're terrific for nice big flameroos and for going slow, but sadly I learned with glowsticks, making me unable to do anything slowly ever again. Maybe one day I'll to lead a normal life once more...
