Woooooo!!!!!

Being risky and brave is just one more step on your journey of poi. Soon you'll be crazy enough to do leg wraps with fire.

Keep spinning

"Cardinal!!! Poke her... with the SOFT CUSIONS!!!!"

"Its not working my lord!"

"Have you got all of the stuffing on one end?!"

Congratulations! It's fun, huh?
I wouldn't call this advice (because it's pretty obvious) but it's worth mentioning. I worked up the nerve last spring to do arm wraps. The first time I did it with fire, I forgot that I usually spin wearing a tank top... So, make sure you wear sleeves long enough. (Although I kind of like the matching crescent shaped scars I got on my inner-upper arms where the hot metal washers hit me. The fire's not the issue, the metal is)

I hope this link works, it's my favorite picture of my friend doing a leg wrap. Or just hit up my gallery, you'll see it.

Oops. Unfortunately, HoP doesn't let you repost photos in the gallery.

But you can link to the gallery page itself.

Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.
