Just recently picked up poi. Playing around with a hand build set, just building up some experience and muscle tone (been sitting in a office too long, seriously unfit). Planning on getting a set of fire poi once I'm stopped hitting myself. Eventually, I'm aiming to do things with coloured flame. EDITED_BY: sdjp (1147385585)
