Hi, I'm brand spanking new to HOP, never even new it existed until I stumbled upon it recently. Only just starting to get my sea legs as far as the technology thing goes. Just typed poi into a search engine and BAM, Here I am. And right glad I am too.
Been spinning for years on and off, started in South Africa and the enthusiasm kinda waned once I got to the UK and refused to leave the warmth of indoors for months. Years later I am regaining my passion and learnig to accept that 26 degrees celcius is warm.
Think Hop is amazing, looking forward to learning and living and loving and growing.

I think it might be easier to drag the UK down here, and then you'd have a warmer climate.

Strategically placed on the west coast we could probably increase the size of the waves.

I prefer Hermanus. There are whales in Hermanus. The water colder, but it's quite an experience looking a whale in the eye, they have such soft eyes, kinda like cows.
