Where have you done it? ...poi i mean

So just post unusual places you've done poi. That's all I'm wondering. Whether it's a different country or just in a strange place. Unique experiences are always on topic as well...

--So to kick things off, this New Year's Eve (2005-2006) I did my glow poi on the Spanish Steps in Rome, Italy, in the rain. It was an amazing setting because although it was raining there were at least 1000 people there in just like one spot, watching fireworks and obviously, me poi. I have no pictures as this was more a fun thing for me to do alone, an experience thing...
--And my next strange thing is ontop of a cliff in the middle of Virginia in the USA (last night actually). I was camping out with a couple friends in the woods along the appalachian trail and we all went to a cliff where I got up and played around to my friends techno...good times.
--For the immediate future (this friday) I have planned a talent show in front of 400+ people at my school. I'm doing it with some of my friends some of whom are better than me and some of whom are not. should be fun!

On a plane, with makeshift poi made from my shoelaces with knots tied in the ends

Theres a thread already.
Search is dead.
Long live the king.

oops...how old is it?

not old enough...

But this one is not exclusively for unusual spinning places... does that make the difference?

aye, theres an older version of that around.

i remember it from when I joined....

*takes Jon's walking stick*

*runs away*

*falls over in comical manner*

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

yeah, this can get more off topic. it includes strange junk happening while playing with poi...my friend had a kid try to stop the poi. my friend promptly did a thread the needle and punched the kid. it was hilarious.

bit extreme, i normally find the words dont do that would suffice... altenatively, if they had been fire poi, i would have done a simple weave and walked towards such kid, scaring the out of them. But thats just me

yeah, we work in glow poi, far too inexperienced for fire. Then again, most kids seem terrified if you get too close to them spinning glows. plastic hurts but i really don't care. I've hit myself in the face and ...another area...more times than i can count.

Your elbow?


No, its your knee isnt it?

Ive hit myself more times I can count too.
Then again,
I can only count up to 8.

During the christmas break I decided it might be a good idea to spin poi wearing nothing but a pair of boxers and snowboard boots while it was snowing. Fire mind you. I have photos on my phone too. I've also spun on the top bit of the pier in St Andrews with Ruthless.

i did it on your parents bed.

it felt naughty!

i spun standing on the top of cardiff castels center tower. climed up on the wall and put my toes over the edge and then started dancing around. i was so scared but i was bad as [censored]. to bad im now banned from the castel

Last weekend we did fire poi on a friend's roof, overlooking most of london... it was gorgeous! (to be honest, it was a safe enough roof - just enough space for it to be exciting!). It was freezing too!

sh people, with this one you can go more off topic

me n my fried climbed up on to the sports hall roof at school and did poi up there, was pretty fun. then the teacher caught us and then we were in the

on the top of my father's big red van with my cousin, at the eurockeenes of Belfort, my sister was driving very slowly, but the festival's atmosphere (we were "quite" drunk ) made my cousin fall of the van and my first official burnt,

aaaaaah, que de souvenirs ce festival!!

on the lip of a quarry in suffolk last summer at a big illegal rave, i spun with some cool people, some beginners and some more experienced spinners


it was amazing to spin just as the sun was rising and the music was getting darker and harder raves
