Drews Poi and Stick Video Blog

a very british psychadelic movie I got shown by an american.

God Meg, that video is terrifying, especially Lionel blair! EEEEEEEP!

Seen it many times.
I still love it though

I think it was done by the Joel Vietch/ Rathtergood team.

Like Greg Kennedy, only a bit more Japanese, rigid, and on fire:

Living Graffiti

um.

the meguron toy rocks.

Hope this isn't too inappropriate...

Is he wearing two pairs of underpants?



Those crazy black chaps with their crazy fashions. What next? Wearing their hats backwards? Maybe even not wearing a hat! Imagine that! Not wearing a hat..! oh the insanity....!

for all,

quite silly: Bo Staff Workout... Muscular competition for Meast...

Gayest poi vid ever...

Oh its not that bad... Well...

Ok, it's pretty darn cheesey...but at least it's original...

And they do look different (Re cheap and flimsy) but hey, new stuff is always good to find...

MCP - RE Bo Staff vid.

That's a shocker! Is he really trying to teach people or is he just showing off that he can spin it fast...

When I teach the exact same moves, it always helps to keep the speed slow for several days to get the action smooth.

Speeding it up just messes up the pattern and makes it muchg harder to get consistsently (and then speed if you want) later.

This guy doesn't even explain what he is saying or doing, just, like, make sure you are grabbing and pushing grabbing and pushing...

Makes me think Art of Staff isn't too bad despite it's age...

oh my god, I want one of those wheels so badly right now. Anyone know where to get them and how much they cost?

not sure wjere to get them, but they're called 'Roue Cyr' if yjay helps your quest...

they cost a lot.

like at least £500 pound. Contact a circus school, they should know some people... either that or the guy that originally did it, Daniel Cyr... he works for Cirque Eloize..

Meg, did you ever learn that?

And loving the squeevers... or whatever

I don't see why they should be so expensive aside from they're a super specialized tool... Looks just like a big hoop though with nothing else... Aluminum or steel, 6' - 6.5' diameter, 1.5" - 2" tubing?? Probably wouldn't cost so much if you could find the materials and tools to make it yourself. I don't think it has any sort of handles - looks like hes just grabbing hold though I wonder how he does the rolls without cutting off his fingers hehe.

yeah that expensive. Considering it needs to be a perfect circle, so you have to get a decent metal bender, who can do that size of bend. It has to be sized to the individual, it should be made of ALI, cos steel would be super heavy, and since there's no way of shipping a hoop of that size, you have to buy a break down 5 piece version, it needs specialised well fitting joints that are probably welded in, as well as a pvc skin on it. 500 is like a pretty normal price.

Yeah... I did learn it a little, but my roue needs joints added and a skin now... so we need to find another metal bender and welder... more money...

I'm sure this would have been posted before but just in case ...
