Poi and staff (1 poi btw) its mad because you can get some good wraps and throws

poi and juggling (poigling) - it is possible to do a 3 ball cascade and do reverse butterfly at the same time

that guy I believe is Devkev and he's good.

Poiggling is easy I do it all the time check out the video on flamefireshows.com forum

you can not only reverse split time butterfly and 3 ball cascade but you can do weave with mikes mess and reels and a 3 ball shower (although that is hard and quite fast)

I can also do a 4 ball fountain and reverse split time butterfly and my favourite is the stafapoigle I do 3 ball cascade, poi and use my legs to do staff but can also be done with very tight luceros on the shoulders.

jake the juggler can juggle and diablo at the same time I believe using his mouth for the diablo sticks

I thought you had done something with the image fx at first but its a costume. Mental...

I would be scared to death if I see someone wearing that, how surreal. Of course I wont now and if i see some neon person walking about now ill know its you and say hello.

I bet it comes in usefull if you ride a bicycle at night or something.

that suit is very hot to spin in I have to say Wink and is only normally brought out for glow shows or walkabouts

I'm not running any staff workshops because I'm using play as a holiday, I've taught so many workshops I thoought I'd go learn instead, plus I imagine there will be some people better than me at play quite a few infact Laughing

I assume so I can't actually enter the comp unless I do diablo or devil stick (neither of which I'm particularly good at) because I've performed professionally in all the disciplines I'm good at wish they'd done it last year.

ooo actually, I haven't ever juggled for a show Very Happy may ask dunc if I'm allowed to enter juggling sticks or if they count as doing staff.

Yep I believe the criteria are you can perform in any aspect you have not performed prefessionally in. ie. been paid to do.

so my staff and (luckily) poi are out the window but juggling and maybe poiggling are still in with a shout Wink Laughing

haha well, i don't mix stuff like that as such. i mix beats and drinks, but having said that, i have done a few silly things. I've ridden on a bmx, then stood up and got on the back foot pegs (going down a hill) and stood up fully and juggled 3 balls for a few seconds then i sat down and got back on the seat hehe. i've also done poi on a mountain bike which was fun. And, i mix power kiting and mountainboarding, to such an extent that i'm sponsored for it :D
