Thanks Marnie. According to homeofpoi.com, "'Poi' are a traditional Maori dance prop and has given rise to a contemporary style of spinning popular all over the world." Basically weighted cords which are twirled- could be tennis balls on string, which I made to practise with, or kevlar wicks on chains (which i bought..).
I suppose I started because I'm similarly confused. Had to find out for myself what the fuss was about :) Cheers, Ryan ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 14, 2005 7:39 AM Subject: Re: PESO: Unsuccessfully tried to set myself on fire today > In a message dated 2/12/2005 6:47:06 AM Pacific Standard Time, > [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > On Thu, 10 Feb 2005 00:34:17 +1000, Ryan Lee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Just got my first pair of fire poi!
