Theory: Attaching Handles to your staff

- Roughly 10 cm away from the center works fine for the beginning, move closer to the center the more confident you get. The offcenter is necessary in order to give momentum to the staff (mini isolations)
- Swivels are essential
- It would be nice to have a "once around the staff swivel" too

I was experimenting with swivels and meteors already but somehow never got around to attach them to staffs. Its nice to play around with these and astonishing speeds become possible (Remember: More speed More pain )
Doublestaff becomes quite interesting for Poi Spinners if you use Handles.
Due to the fact that the handles are off center one can use the staff the normal way (handles are not in the way) and just grap/let go the handles whenever wanted.

Any experiences/suggestions/ideas about it ?!?

We are the music makers, We are the dreamers of dreams,

World-losers and world-forsakers, On whom the pale moon gleams;
We are the movers and shakers of the world for ever, it seems.
