Now I'm not laughing because you heard about us on a unicycle forum. I'm laughing because we have several unicyclers hanging around here, I'm sure that they'll be showing up sooner or later. Oh, by the way, welcome to HoP Sam.

Hi and welcome to HoP!
Get two long socks and put a tennis ball in each. There is no better set of beginner poi. Check out the free lessons here to get started.
Happy spinning!

how about 2 small edam cheeses in the meshed bags that oranges and alike come in tied to bootlaces. Then if you ever get trapped somewhere with your poi you won't starve!

If you happen to have any of those nets you get with washing up powder tablets, thread some long string (I used shoelaces) through them and put tennis balls or something else heavy in them.
Anything long with a weight on the end will do - if you look at the "Strangest thing ever spun" thread that lives, errrr, somewhere, then you'll see that people have spun pretty much everything
Shopping bags with something in will do just fine, or something on a bit of string. Got any old yoyo's? "Take that, math!"
