Derek: completely true. I went to a goodwill and they had an entire box of leggings from Target. I cut the leggings to make 2 socks, filled each one with one cup of rice, and tied them off. They RULED. Seriously, they had the perfect amount of stret…
I have been informed that this is NOT a safe fuel to breathe with, so please, nobody try it. End public service announcement.

- How did you first get into fire / glow arts, and how long have you been involved?
- 2 months... I had heard about poi before, but recently a friend of a friend started spinning and selling gear. I played around with some of his socks, and was hooked. I picked it up rather quickly because I already knew some wushu bo staff, whipchain, numchuck, and glowsticking moves.
