We'll blaze a new trail,

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

One last note - The video only works when opened with the DivX player from that link. Windows Media, Real One, and WinAmp still do not play it.

Here's a thread on them:-

and here's a webpage with some close up pics of them: -

Really nice and slow to spin, would be pretty dangerous to spin them fast cos of the weight of the knots.

What is that you are using for meteors? It looks like green rope (or chain?) with something at the ends (tennis balls?) Are the ends weighted with anything?
I have some problems keeping the meteor going, Maybe I need slightly different equipment (tennis ball poi on chains, linked together at the handles....about 5 1/2 feet long.

quote:making them stretch out like a staff is the hardest part, and to spin them as a circle in front of you i.e. like the basic staff circle, is one of the most difficult moves, far more so than, for example, alterning BTB passes.
Originally posted by flid:
cool, nice vid, finally something to learn meteors from
I was about to ask where you got your meteors from, but then read the thread I made myself a set, but the weights arn't big enough to make it even remotely stretch out like yours and be able to spin like a staff - after a couple of turns it just goes limp..........
Whilst there's a meteor thread with meteor people posting in it, has anyone perfected joining 2 poi together mid spin to create a meteor?
