Poi Hurts!!

I have whacked myself in the knees and the back of the head a few times. And managed to get someone else in the shoulder.

I got myself in the nuts with a hideously badly-conceived pair of home-made poi, several years ago.

I couldn't find tennis balls, so I used golf balls. I think I might have cried a little that day.

i tried for the first time and nailed myself in the head.... gonna get softer ones cause that left stars in my eyes!!!

NOT stopping though!!

I was doing an outward spinning butterfly and tried a behind the head move........
the poi wrapped around my wrists (handcuffed me) behind my head and whacked me in the ears simultaneously....
that will throw off your equilibrium!

I keep hitting my calves...

Was out in the park for ages today spinnin and doin well until I cracked meself in the nuts twice within 10 minutes!! Oooch! ...decided to call it a day after that! I think I was losin focus out of hunger and tiredness.

At least it wasn't as bad as the other day when I hit meself in the rocks with both poi at once!

I been thinkin a box (that they use in Karate etc) might be a good idea!

Whacked myself in the head a gazillion times doing behind the head butterfly. Luckily I have the fluffy poi with their forgiving feeling so it's rather like "no, no, Harasu, you're doing it all wrong" instead of "you clusmy crow, wtf is wrong with you".

Btw, I don't think girls' private parts (whacked that, too doing 3 beat weave) hurt any less than boys'. They're both quite sensitive, innit?
