Here it is: Danae Cassandra's birthday video from 2003.
Follow the link....
https://www.plasticplastic.com/vids/
What to expect:
1ere partie - Old school lovelest style from Danae spinning in parisian parks. Now this is what spinning SHOULD look like.
2eme partie - Drew goofing about, with balls, sticks and poi, expect some pie-on-ear-ring post-modernist-post-functional-post-aestheic poi in there somewhere
plus more old school lovelest style from Danae with poi and stick spinning in parisian parks.
3eme Partie - Us lot spinning at night with fire including mor danae and "The Flaming Toothbrush of Destiny"
4eme Partie - Jo Nomad, Mmmmmmm. This spin as really clean and didn't need editing at all, I just dropped in a couple of edits to make it fit the tune better.
{The new issue for 2005 I cleaned up the edit on Jo's bit - part 4 and chopped 3 and 4 into 2 files - there is no new footage, and almost no difference, but i find it better to watch}
Edited based on the quality of shot, flow and stoopidity.
Hope you enjoy it.
feedback muchily apreciated, so please if you've watched it could you post something below, even if its "booo, that was the worst thing I ever saw..."
Also here are some links to my other videos

And hangar fun - I didn't edit it, Ryan did, but I filem some, and I am in it at some point:

I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I we enjoyed making it.

I've some monkey fists on order, did you do that gilligan grap bare hand in part 3/4? Did the wire bit not heat up too?

Monkey fists are good for catches as it's easy to avoid the metal wire that sticks out of them. It's the metal that'll burn you instantly, the kevlar isn't so bad.
Yep, these are great videos, with some of the most beautiful spinners in them.

In Part 1, Cassandra spins these poi that look like big black/grey/white fluffballs - anyone know what they are and where I could find some?

They're home made poi covers made out of cow skin patterned fluff.
So, you find them after you make them and then lose them.

Cole you're horrible.
But I just have to say I love these videos to bits. My main inspiration for incorporating more poi and dance into my glowstringing.
Thanks Danae, and props to silliness Drew.

yup yup.. if you're talkin about the spinning in paris vids, I just checked em out and the links are working.
lovely spinning
Makes me think more and more that I should prolly get me some fire poi to spin, if for no other reason that to pretend I look as purdy as the folks that post here :P
