Has anyone else made some really silly looking poi just for a laugh?? I was making myself some practice poi the other day and while looking for something nice and soft to put on the ends cam across these "soft toy" frogs, who usually hang from springs in kids rooms. They have really big bug eyes, and long legs...and look sooo funny as poi!! Everybody loves them!!

I have stuffed animal pigs at the end of my practice poi. I'm going to sew on wings on the back of them so they're flying pigs."When pigs fly"...I'm so corny... heh------------------[]Dhuong-Vu Truong==== []Dhunky ====

My practice set uses Winnie the Pooh and Piglet too - stuffed animals, each with an aluminum clip around their neck. Their stupid little smiles and (now) limp necks make me grin. They look all drugged up. I take them almost everywhere with me (still haven't gotten the playa dust out of them from this year's Burningman). I initially used them because I wan't too fond of the characters, but now after a year and a half, I would be totally heartbroken if I lost them.Spritie uses two frogs as well, foobaa.

I love the graphic you have there MissFrog. The eyeballs look a lot like my practice poi. I actually have nothing against frogs, and I like mine a lot. The reason I got them was because racquetballs did too much damage to my knees and I wanted something softer. I have also become rather attached to them.
