I have put this off for far too long, so without further ado..
HI ALL!
Haven't posted a massive amount on here, but do spend far too much work time reading everything i can get my hands on
My name is tony and im a 19yr old guy from the sunny brisbane. Work full-time in a fairly boring government position but it lets me pay for more fire/juggling stuff hehe
I have major problems sticking to one toy, so consequently at the moment im playing with staff,poi, devil sticks and really getting in to the juggling scene.
First bought a staff and poi about 4 years ago, but sadly lost interest due to lack of knowing other twirlers and becoming a bit bored of it. Got back in to it about 6 months ago when i started visiting moonfest again and now i make sure i always have some sort of toy in my car
Try and keep a fairly active lifestyle in between twirling. Play quite a bit of volleyball in my spare time, and looking to start yoga and gymnastics or even capoeria.
EDIT: Two years later and still haven't started yoga, gymnastics or capoeira...better stop procrastinating
Moving to wavell heights in a week or two so might have to have a housewarming party to met a few more of the brisbane hoppers
So thats me, hope to keep meeting more of you whether it be for a twirl, a beer or just hanging out. Keep spinning
Tony
P.s Nutella is the best

you just need to pace yourself. I made it through the first half too and then let it sit for 10 minutes had a spin and went back to it and finished it off! Don't know if thats going to help in this situation. There really is no room to spin stuck in fonuey goodness!!

holy smokes! how far did you have to go to dig out this old chestnut? I went on a trip through the intro forums yesterday (I think? anything further back than 5mins becomes a blur)... got to about page 7-8 I think and gave up... but no basstones...
so... is that unicycle ready for someone to axe themselves?

On your home page you can edit how many threads per page are shown, and how many post per page. Next to your avatar, the second edit button will take you in there and you can edit it.

You caught me paul
I have really let this place become a mess...Need some of those cleaning pixies... or maybe some sort of elf... Hmm so many mythical creature options I have been a tad quiet on here recently so am quite behind on current events, but luckily its moonfest soon! YAY!
Pat: Unicycle is sitting outside my bedroom half completed whilst my person gets in contact with some other department who will probably just tell me that they screwed up :P So once they send me the correct part, i shall be up and cycling like a madman
Did i mention i think im going to ride it to work some days "In the end there is only fire and a waterfall"

The cleaning elf thingy like the one harry potter has. That would do the job nicely!!!
Unicycle to work.... how far is that? On my way to work i pass the a couple of kids catching the train. They ride to the train station on their unicycles!! Pretty cool me thinks

YOU ARE AREN'T YOU!!!! I.... I.... I'm shocked. What possibly could have given the deep dark secret of mine out. I've tried so very hard to have people believe i was just "special".

Grr just had to send another email wanting to know why i hadnt been contacted about getting the right part :P
This better be sorted out soon, its sooo frustrating to have a unicycle 99% completed outside my room
Almost tempted to rip the parts of my bikes to see if i can customize something, but also know the parts from my bike are probably worth more than the whole unicycle...grr..oh well, hopefully soon
will have fire clubs to distract me anyway hehe "In the end there is only fire and a waterfall"
