Hello,
I was just wondering if anybody hear does any firespinning. For people who don't know, firespinning is basically what it sounds like, spinning fire. There are lots of different ways of doing it, but the most common is definatly poi.
Poi is basically 2 long metal chains with a "head" at the end. You light the heads, then hold one of the chains in each hand, and spin them around.
This is a set of fire poi:

Then second most common type of firespinning is firestaff. This is very common, as many people do lots of firestaff moves/tricks without even knowing what they are doing. Ever picked up a stick, and started spinning it around? What you were doing were most probably firestaff moves. So yeah, a firestaff is a long metal pole (or a staff) with one firehead on each side
They look like this:

There a lots of other firespinning things you can do, but the only other one which I do is fire nunchucks. Everyone knows what nunchucks are, and yes these are just nunchucks with one firehead on the end of each handel.
This is one of my pairs of firenunchucks, that I built my self:

And lastly, here is a video of me doing some firestaff and firenunchucks. Remember, that I have only been doing nunchucks for a couple of weeks, so cut me some slack.
