A Quick Hello...

I'm at work, so have to keep this a brief hello...
Been Spinning poi for about 8-9months-ish (i think) and getting really into it.
Think i've got most of the basics down (ie everything on the HOP site!)except BTB weaves, but getting there slowly on that.
Now just trying to get everything flowing really nicely into a routine and learning any new (and more complicated) tricks as i find them.
looks like this site will be a great help, if only i can understand all the techincal terms you are using!

anyway back to the grind...
then back to sorting out the anti-clockwise fountian when i get home.
oddly, i can do it clockwise fine, but anti-clock is a nightmare.
im guessing its cos my left (weak) hand is the one going "backwards" that way.

Welcome to the best poi learning resource on the net Sphism/gigglesmiley :57
Now, important stuff:

What's your favorite fruit?

:18 :11

thanks for the hello's guys... i shoudl update my profile with this info but anyway.
i'm based in hampshire (so yes, close to london)
fav fruit? hmmmm... cherries? or red grapes?

ooo red grapes. Sphism/tonguesmiley So underrated, why do people always buy the green ones when the red ones are much sweeter?

Technical terms are for boys. Oh you are all boys. Well there we go, I rest my case. Spin spin. :Look so simple. Everything else will follow.

Do we have a polish spinner in our midst or am I assuming too much?
(I meant pole not stuff for spraying on wooden furniture. oh spelling trickyness)

It's not so much that i want my geek-anorak poi badge by knowing all the technical terms... its so i can understand the advice of everyone here!

and yes, spin spin looks so simple. sadly in my case it's spin spin ouch ouch! with some moves Sphism/sadsmiley

And no, not a pole. just a stupid nick.

Alrght... new Avatar in your honor... not quite he geek-anorak poi badge, but my Fire Chains badge.

Welcome to Spherc... and don't worry, I still hit myself all the time, and despite all the advice from the jugglers, I still favor one side all the time. :-P
