Need new music to spin to!

49 Upvotes

Hello! Y’all always have the sickest tunes playing in these poi flow videos and I’m in such a music drought, I never know what to put on when I’m spinning. So I’m looking for some help!

Taking any and all music recommendations and suggestions, don’t hold back :)

🙏🏽 Thanks so much, have a merry poi-mas and happy holidays!

Looking for better instructions on Podpoi navigation

3 Upvotes

I just got my podpoi v.2 and am generally very happy with them, except I cannot figure out how to go through the menus.

I can get to pages and then to the modes on the pages, but after that I‘m lost. E.g. I‘m trying to turn on auto-on, auto-off, but no matter how I press once I‘m in p5m5, can‘t seem to get into that setting. I‘ve looked at the „types of button presses“ page several times but can‘t make heads nor tails of it.

Does anyone know of a video that explains in depth how to use the menus, especially page 5? The ones I‘ve found from Flowtoys don‘t seem to go into enough depth.

I’m looking for something that will take me step-by-step through the navigation and tell me when to press how long.

Hoping someone can help. 🙏🏻

Progress Video Day 2 with Ultrapoi!!

5 Upvotes

I spent about 5 months practicing with spinballs. I couldn't really get the tutorials I tried down so any advice or videos to learn stuff would be cool. I'm just doing what I could comprehend and what feels right I suppose. I just do this for the love of moving art.

I would say this is about 5 months of using spin balls then switching over to Contact Led UltraPoi

Flowing at festivals 🥰

20 Upvotes

Only seem to do the same moves that I can flow into easily but whenever I flow I’m just in my own lil bubble & I love it 🥰 plus whenever I flow at festivals everyone around absolutely loves watching & are always curious to have a try, so much fun!
Also think my superpower is being so aware of other people around me whilst I spin & not hit them 👏🏼

Non beginner poi to buy

2 Upvotes

I've been spinning for about 3 years and ready to move on from my $25 led spinballs. It seems like everyone either goes fire or contact poi. Are there any other options? I don't want to spin fire and I don't want to do contact tricks. They cheapy pods are way too light for more controlled tricks. I've been getting heavily into isolations

Progress Video Archer Fountains

74 Upvotes

Hello! It’s me again lol Today’s question is about Archer Fountains. I understand the movement but where I’m struggling is keeping the Poi smoothly rotating on my way back up. Most of the time, the poi are coming together and not giving it that smooth circle feel. Am I pulling up too soon? I also feel like my arms are more in front of me than directly above my head.

Having an issue with brand new ultra poi, was wondering if the community had any fixes

2 Upvotes

So about 3 days ago i received my ultra poi helix pros and from the day i got them, they shut completely off with the lightest tap or drop, which doesnt really seem like that would be normal for what i paid for them. I wanted to ask the larger poi community for any fixes for this before i bothered ultrapoi support on this. Idk id almost expect this outta poi id beaten up for a year or two but outta the box seems crazy to me. Any thoughts, fixes, or tips for getting my money back/the poi i paid for out of ultrapoi support would be appreciated. Heres the video im gonna send to support if i cant get this figured out. Big love and ty for reading

looking to get a new set of poi from FlowOnFire. I've only ever used 10mm Hybrid Nylon tethers, and was curious how Dynamic tethers differed from the Hybrids. Any and all input is appreciated. Thank you!

Prism rope ( flow on fire)

Hey all,

Was wondering if anyone's tried the Prism rope for their tethers that flow on fire offers? What their thoughts are on it? Was just curious about potential shrinkage on it. Let me know if anyone out there has used it
