You know, I thought I had - it's not like I've not had an account here for years and years now and loads of you have met me is it?
So... I'm James aka spiralx pretty much everywhere online, I'm 27 and have been spinning poi for about 3 and a bit years now I reckon. Was taught the 2 beat weave by Dom way back in the day
Sort of got stuck after that due to a lack of anyone to teach me stuff and didn't pick it up again until I finally got shown how to do the reverse 3 beat weave after 6 months of practically not spinning at all... Nowadays I'd say I'm not too shabby at spinning Don't tend to spin fire a lot, too much hassle lugging paraffin around! I can do a little bit of staff and have started juggling recently, although I'm being a bit lazy practising
I live in Hackney in London and work in computers in the City - no suit wearing for me though
Musicwise I'm mainly into techno of most kinds - the harder and wonkier the better, but also most other dance music that isn't cheesy trance. I also listen to black metal, hip-hop and well, anything that isn't pants. My favourite films are the Shawshank Redemption and Pleasantville and I tend to read books voraciously, mainly fantasy, sci-fi and popular science, but I can be persuaded to read anything if it's good.
That's all from me folks!

If you were there spinning with Matt near the Origin stage then I reckon I did for all of about 10 seconds before I wandered off again in an absolutely [censored] haze
