Not anything strange but slightly odd spinning.

I was at the nottingham meet (before the nottingham poi convention) and tried to spin poi with lauz by standing behind her putting my arms by her side with her hidden behind her back and tried to spin. I thought I coul manage a butterfly but just ended up hitting her in the face every beat lol, luckily they were sock poi

I regularly spin meat and cheese bags down the isles of grocery stores. It even started a supermarket spin jam one day, although my groceries got mangled

My first experience of poi was quite amusing (and painful)

i was on a camp and a guy was trying to explain what poi were. eventually he comes up with the idea of putting rocks in rubber gloves and tieing them up with sizel.

great, except i had no experience of poi. i had bruises on my legs, arms, face, all over. and to top it all off, the sizel had taken all the skin off my fingers! ouch!

i didnt even manage to get the three beat weave.

now i spin anything, mainly my keys or shopping when my socks arent to hand.

i added weights to the ends of my boxing wraps! they make awesome poi since when urr doing the normal weave to a triple weave or any combination, u can lengthen or shorten them! the resistance is pretty big though but still they look wierd from a distance due to lack of visual weight. all you have to do is get some small lead weights and just bind them into the wraps, wrap the cords around your wrist to start off with then lengthen as you please.

last weekend i was playing with bat poi.
gonna try to post a pic og the bats sometime over the weekend. (*note to animal lovers, they are artiicial bats)



They were mechnical bats that fly in a circle that hung on the ceiling (it was a 'Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas' theme night). They were really heavy and they hurt when they hit...

Other than that - helium balloons....

friend of mine told me a story of when he went to one of the earlier Cherry parties back in teh day, where they picked up two large pillows shaped like fish for the van, and he picked them up by the tail, felt the weight, and started to spin them like his fans. next think u knew it was the main event party and there he was up on a podium spining these two glowing red fish pillows
