Hi, my names Nynd. I live in Derbyshire/England. Im 17 in 6th form taking Maths, Geology, English Lit and Theatre Studies. I'm also currently a Pot Washer. Plans for life are something outdoors. Ray Mears is my all time hero so id love to do soemthing like him. All very interesting, I know. Anyway, ive currently took a great interest in staff spinning. I already Yo Yo and love doing that but ive always loved to staff spin. Ive made the odd light sabre fight with the most basic of spinning in them and so i thought that i should take up the sport properly and learn properly.
The lessons on this website look awesome but im wanting to buy a Staff. Advice on lengths etc would be much appreciated.
Thanks Nynd

hello and welcome to HoP!!!
with staff lengths it prob depends on you and what you feel comfortable with.... have you got an old broom handle or bamboo cane or something you could have a go with and see what feels right?
take care

Alright, Welcome to HoP
Would you like some Spaghetti Bolgonase and a massage?
In terms of staffs there are other things to think about, apart from length, what do you want it made out of, aluminium steel, or wood? personally i'd suggest a good staff to be a nice wooden stick around120cm long, also do you want a fire staff or practise staff
