Thanks to www.crlightworks.co.uk for the photo.
Very sick stall transfers, and Multi-plain wobble patterns! I've been working on this myself....been finding it looks and feels better if you really snap those stalls...and work on getting them to completely stop! Great vid man
By the handle will be best, as there they will allow the most mass to spin.
I've always put swivels by the handles (when I've bothered used swivels), but with normal fire poi, I've never really noticed the benefit. The swivels will help for orbital…
southern lights at dorset

A family fire and circus arts festival based in beautiful rural Dorset with a heavy workshop bias and lovely music. A community gathering of like minded people who like good music and fun times. (taken from website)
there will be loads of workshops…
Now what I thought was really interesting is that it seems like you're not actually stalling, but rather tugging at the exact perfect time and strength to change planes instantly. I'm definitely experimenting with this.
WOW I never knew stalls could be used in such a way it's truly elegance in it's simplicity
A great use for a technique that seemed useless. My worry was always that plane switching would destroy the flow, but i saw a couple of good variations in there... I might have to try learning some.
you artard! thats not how poi is supposed to go! LOLOLOLOL

Went to the CEltic rally beer fest this weekend. Was a good weekend although it was cancelled coz the organiser went bust so it basically just turned into a huge free party! Not a bad weekend.

- Nice to meet you too!
Wow 5 years i'm sure you could teach me a move or two :)
Exeter is preety dry for spinner to be honest. I have a small ccrowd of about 4 but thats it. Bit of a dull city really. Where abouts are you from?
I used to learn of my friend but she moved to Beijing so im trying to get some more people together to get some more tricks on the go.
You got any good festivals/conventions planned for the summer? I'm looking to try and meet some spinners at festies this year.
cheers
