"hese poi wear the leashes out before the wicking does"
and at $60 I'd say that you'll have to replace the whole poi everytime they die instead of just the heads.
Nice concept but there's far cheaper and better methods you could employ to avoid exposed metal if you really keen on wrapping all the time.
I'd suggest making your own, it's not that hard really. You could just tie monkey fists into the end of 1/4 or 1/2 inch rope and spin those

so using a 1/4 or 1/2 inch kevlar rope would work if you tied it to monkey fists?

kinda.....it's not tied 'to' monkey fists, you'd have to tie the monkey fist onto the end of a long peice kevlar rope and cut the other end to whatever length you prefer your poi to be. So it's only one peice of rope....get me?
