Flag Poi

By Malcolm Crawshay, Home of Poi
Flag Poi is a pair of Poi that have a large trailing piece of fabric similar to a flag. The big-block area of color gives this Poi a substantial visual impact. Ideal for when your audience is in a large arena or sitting far from the stage where you are performing.

Regular Flag Twirling compared to Flag Poi

Flag twirling uses a rectangular piece of material with weights added into parts of the leading and bottom edges so it is able to 'cut' through the air. There is no separate handle so you hold onto the leading top corner of the fabric. If you twirl/rotate in one direction for too long, the material will twist up the flag until it becomes a rolled up piece of fabric. This is why it is important to mix the direction of rotation so any twists get untwisted on the following swings.

Flag Poi does have a separate handle with a Swivel connecting it to the flag. This Swivel allows you to do any number of rotations in one direction without the fabric twisting or rolling up. We have also changed the shape of the flag at the bottom to match the rotating movement of the Flag Poi to create a circular block of color.

Best used inside or outside on a less windy day. They really can catch the wind and flap against you or the other Flag Poi.

About Veil and Scarf Poi

The trailing fabric is not weighted to open up fully and 'cut' through the air. They work more so like a twirling ribbon, so the fabric is dragged through the air following the weighted ball head. The material is either a silk or very lightweight fabric to help it stay in the leading path of the Poi. These, too, will be best used inside or on a calm day. Due to the lightweight nature of the fabric dragging on another surface, they will wear out, especially on something harsh like concrete.

Seeking a Replacement
"Well this looked great, showed signs of material fraying after one or two uses. After 5 or 6 the thin metal bar that holds the dragon across gave way. I'm getting supportive responses from your tech team who are now offering to send a replacement, but that's been slow and I suspect there is really a design fault as opposed to one-off glitch."

Not what I expected.
"I bought these to put on the end of my staff for more effect while spinning in the day. They work... But are much heavier than I expected. It really slows down the staff and makes it hard to spin. On their own they are again... Just Ok. Not much different than my poi but the flapping is distracting."

Long veil poi
"I had to wait the delivery due to the pandemic, and my concerns were listened and HoP promised to send me a new pair, but eventually the original set arrived :)! Top notch customer service, as always. The poi flows well, interesting patterns, and it's a perfect option for first practice veil poi."

HoP are very attentive!
"The first set of Poi I recieved were odd lengths in 3 places - HoP were very attentive to send replacements. This was fantastic they cared to do so. The product is a good weight, well balanced (once matching) and easy to work with. :)"

Best poi I've found so far
"I've been looking for poi for a while and did some research across multiple websites. These poi are just perfect so I bought two more for my friends. Thank you!"

Gorgeous, impressive, and loooong
"These are such a crowd pleaser, they feel and look very satisfying to spin, ideal for day-time performances. The poi themselves feel really nice in terms of weight, length and size, but they can get a little frustrating when the fabric twists around your arms or each other, its a learning curve but its a fun one, highly recommend"
