How long

hey
i was just wondering how long a poi should stay alight for my arent staying alight for very long but it could be because i like to do my moves very fast so could any one please just say how long theres stays alight for

couple of minutes?
hard to judge

Depends really...

My normal poi, I can get about 2 minutes out of them if I do not spin them too fast, or about 30 seconds if I spin like a maniac.

My "brick" poi, as my friends like to call them (cathedral or interweave wick poi with 4 foot of wick on each) will last for about 4 to 7 minutes depending on how fast I am spinning them. I cannot make these ones go out just by spinning fast as I can with most others...that and they are rather heavy (hence the "brick poi" name) and so require a lot of effort to spin fast.

If your wicks are getting old they may not burn for as long as they should either.
