lol, it's that time of month again where nightshade asks for more vids of people spinning. Like clockwork man lol.

I'd like to add, stop trying to match up to people. The best competition is yourself and trying to one up yourself everyday. 3-4 hours practice everyday doesn't hurt either.

::walks into the room, gently checks Phunky's forehead to see if hes got fever::

Phunky, these are wise words and I really honestly admire how you've changed on HOP.

Don't need to add anything, I agree with you

"I want brown bread... no, that is diesel oil..."
"So I was raised in Europe, where History comes from ..."
"NON !!! La Plume de mon oncle n est pas Bingibangibungi !!!"

I do have a lot of dancing clips. The thing is more people dance than they people spin so it's widely availible. I'd have a lot of spinning clips, but there just aren't any, period. Not free one's anyways. I don't practice 3-4 hours anymore, i used to. I don't even spin much anymore. It's not a priority for me. I'm more likely to make a clip of myself popping than i am of spinning, because like i said, spinning is not as much as a priority for me as getting better at dancing is now.

Posted: 27th Apr 2002
So, i'll clearly state again.

THERE ARE NO SPINNING CLIPS AVAILABLE. This is the only poi messageboard in the WORLD. If there is a clip to be released you'll hear about it first. Whereas there are hundreds of dance messageboards which post dance clips every week.

SPINNING IS NOT THAT POPULAR. Not to mention the mentality of spinners and dancers are completely different. Dancer's release clips of themselves to get critiqued and show their skills. Spinners are more modest. It's more of a personal choice that they spin and not to gain attention.

In my personal experience the only spinners that care about learning new moves and one upping someone else everyday are ravers. Which is directly linked to the atmosphere in which they spin. They go to clubs and spin and that dance mentality rubs off on them. People who learn how to spin at raves are most likely to drop the activity because it's more of a fad. When they stop partying they will stop spinning.

Posted: 27th Apr 2002
If you notice the trend over the last year or two, the sh*t disturbers on this board have been people coming from the party scene. Whereas the fire spinners have usually been the responisble modest one's. There have been exceptions but it's a good generalization.

yer mean phunky!!!!
hahah:p

if it isnt soo popular... well idont get how come ppl really enjoy watching this...

I'm not talking about popularity, i mean can you honestly say there are more spinners (i use that term loosely but you know what i mean) vs dancers? Why do people gather at raves to dance or spin?

Posted: 28th Apr 2002
Well to tell ya the truth... that i have saw... i have saw me and one else like dancers...and others are spinners. Even at rave or anything... why? cause they just spin they wont move at the rythm of the music or nothing... they just do moves just for doing it... they wont fallow the music or nothing they DONT even move their bodies or nothing;p something that i find really boring¿, well In my opinion

As far i see.. me and someone else i know are dancers the other are spinners in a rave i guess... dunno...

Dunno what you consider a spinner or dancer... but for what iget what is... its like that;p for example all those vids in home of rave were spinners noone of them were dancers... the only dancer there was someone like a chinese or something with yellows glowsticks... but wasnt nothing awsome but he was a dancer i guess

Let me rephrase then,

Amount of Poi dancers/spinners IS NOT MORE than the amount of Other dancers. Hence, there will be less vids of spinners err i mean poi dancers. See what i'm getting at.

Posted: 28th Apr 2002

Posted: 28th Apr 2002
Yeah im like that
well that really sucks:P
but if ppl werent lazy like in the other dances type we would have lot of vids too ;p lalala
