I was wondering what material would be best to use as wick for staffs and poi. I recently found some non-blended kevlar tape, would that work or is it best to go with a fiberglass or cotton blend with the kevlar? As well, would fiberglass tape do the thing too?

Thanx 4 the help! [Smile]

as far as i know the kevlar cotton mix is best. kevlar for strength and cotton for absorbancy.
