5 years Glowsticking and still Starry Eyed

[MrCrazieman]

DUDE.

[PyroPoiArtist]

Nice flow, nice tune, and the flow fits in nicely with the music (and I'm kind of a dubstep hater, so if I'm grooving to it you know it's gotta be a good song). Keep up the good rhythm.

[YNGDeuce2]

so fucking smooth bro. i envy you

[zacharyneal1]

fuck i need you at my next rave



[KaylaIsAUnicorn]

I want to know EXACLTY how to do this. PLease?(:

[JoelThedude4u]

I admire your talent kid, very very good, i cannot even get close to this.....but you may want to increase your speed. if you do it fast, then all good :) just my opinion.

[Mentalcheez]

Fucking epic! Respect your skill bro. Stay starry eyed, peace and love!

[royalmac1011]

Hey man i just wanted to say that this was an amazing production that really expressed your talent to glow stringing, it was by far some of the smoothest flow i have seen in a while. keep it up

[joshua1davison]

@royalmac1011 appreciate it man, it's a wonderful skill to have learned and tons of fun once you start learning

[ADSaaron]

wow, simply wow

[invaderb1]

and to TheJameswalk....... if your actually serious about your comment then go fuck yourself . ive been doing it for about 3 years and this takes dedication , hard work and focus. Obviously something you don't have

[invaderb1]

great poi, and a great song to boot. may i ask what album/artist it is?

[Alifichsan27]

I might know who this song was it?

[joshua1davison]

@Alifichsan27 Song is in description =)

[ryanmg1]

Dude, that's the best flow video I've seen in a hot minute. I don't care what video editing effects were used, pure awesomeness!!

[joshua1davison]

@ryanmg1 Thanks man, lot's of hard work =)

[ijerk695]

what kind of sticks are those at 1:30-2:15

[joshua1davison]

@ijerk695 They are blue ultras, with video effects =)

[JeshuaParis]

Am I really tripping that hard right now?? hahaha

[TheJameswalk]

5 years nigga!!! damn you should give up you suck

[schlosser90]

@TheJameswalk

haters gonna hate

[DrewP465]

Have to say this is one of the best glowsticking vids up here.

[vampir3blood]

what program are you using to make thoes trails? they are SIIICKK!!

[joshua1davison]

@vampir3blood ask pacman he did the editting

[rodmig1]

How many times did your skills get you laid? DAMN

[Monahandsom3]

@rodmig1 lmao probably none. stringing doesnt really get the girls that wet lmao.

[joshua1davison]

@Monahandsom3 It's a great way to meet girls or make your girlfriend jealous... which isn't good lol. But I have had one girl attack me, but I'm pretty sure she would have attacked anything entertaining under whatever influence she was one. In the end, I'd say girls at the clubs love it but it won't make you leave the club with a girl lol.

[mrjerk56]

the camera makes the glow sticks so trippy

[djhobbes]

dude i've been a club head for 10 years now. I've never seen anybody as good as you. your flow is absolutely retarded.

[joshua1davison]

@djhobbes Where at? I'd like to go to your club!

[GrilledCheezeCat]

@joshua1davison I have to agree with djhobbes, you use such smooth movements and don't focus on swinging it as fast as possible.

[chonsay33]

omfg.... dude i got chills just looking at ur flo my jaw was dropped whole time it was amazing hahah

[TayWilsonGangstas]

Omg you're amazing :3

[mogely16]

fix your camera hahah.. jk looks good

[Taanstafl12]

Your style blows my mind. Fantastic shit.

[aikenatlas]

You are incredible. Never seen anyone string with the grace, poise, and obvious passion for your art. Great Vid edit too. Effortless and Amazing! Thanks for sharing.

[garretaccount]

How did you get the glow sticks to be such a cool color at 1:43

[TheIBEEBI]

@garretaccount i think that it was edited :)

[JoelThedude4u]

@garretaccount Camera settings, not glowstick

[oOaryelleOo]

nice editing... very nice spinning too.. i like how you can have a slow flow with short strings ;)

[gagecotton36]

I wish Glowsticking could be a sport at my school /:

[StiGMaTicKNiGHt]

i entered the talent show today too but i lost :/ im an amateur, you're pro though, you've been a great help, didnt know there were more to raving / glowsticking than what i did...

[MrTyson5262]

i have orbits ill make a video soon ;)

[mkifyousayso]

Where do you get those sticks at 1:45???

[technoraverr]

So fucking smooth , omg I love you .

[jebsax2006]

@Monahandsom3 does that even matter? It's not about "who can learn the most moves" it is about dancing and expressing yourself.

[Aarion99]

dude you are fucken crazy man!!

[Zakarius12]

seriously, who could dislike this?

[kyle122388]

i stand corrected

[warcraftaz]

just a question how much u payed for all those glowstics u were using in those 5 years yet i wanna start but i dont want to spend like 10$ a glowstick that runs out in 10mins-1hours Lmao

[Heliosvector]

@warcraftaz go to extremeglow website and they sell bulk glowsticks cheap, like a pack of 60 for 100 dollars for the high intensity ones or buy a flowlight led rechargable poi set. they are expensive but no need for disposables anymore

[warcraftaz]

@Heliosvector Thats the point cuz from Extreameglow they only work about 10mins waste of it second Flowlight are very expensive soo i dont really know

[Heliosvector]

@warcraftaz well actually, its only the high intensity ones that last a short time. all you have to do is buy the recreational ones $100 for 100 and they last 4-12 hours. use these ones when you are practicing, hell you can even practice with them when they are spent. then when you are actually performing, use the high intensity ones. another thing you can do is take any 6" glowstick, cover them in white paint, and then put a blacklight on in the room you are spinning in.

[Heliosvector]

blacklights cost maybe 3 dollars and last as long as an ordinary bulb. flowlights arent expensive. the light itself is 20 dolllars. the rest is expensive but its worth it. the casing is made from the same plastic as riot shields so they are very durable for hard play.

just get a crystal case they are cheaper

[warcraftaz]

@Heliosvector well my country is poor we get only 400$ a month soo yah Pretty fucked up right?

Soo i can't afford almost anything LOL

[Heliosvector]

@warcraftaz i suggest the white glowsticks with UV/Blacklight then

or just get some white socks, put tennis balls into them and then spin them. this will give you beginner practice poi that light up the entire length. you can do all the moves except orbitals with them

[Purplexold]

:53 what the fuck?

[PlaneJane03]

dude, that was rad...and the editing on the video was boss

[kittykatkaren420]

youre hot (;

[kittykatkaren420]

HEY YOURE HOT

[Monahandsom3]

look up syphon killer if you wanna see what multiple years of glowstringing should look like... or ronan mcloughlin or poiboi07 for poi experts

[Monahandsom3]

man i dont wanna sound like a downer or a hater or anything man, youve got a nice flow and all man, but for 5 years thats the extent of your skill? i'm sorry i see so many people all over your dick about your skill and its not THAT impressive. I've been stringing for 9 or 10 months and my move library seems more varied than that. and i hardly notice much difference going from watching your 4 year to your 5 year. you basically learned the behind the back 3beat weave only it seems like.

[schlosser90]

Really diggin the style. ALOT. And i disagree with @Daavisonfire, I see the complexity in what it is you're doing. Its clearly a developed style, and it's been awhile since I've seen a good one.

Btw, after effects? Or is it the type of camera you're using.

[Blessthephobia]

Am I high or is he putting some of these clips in slow-mo?

[Daavisonfire]

looks more like a year of glowstringing

[StealthyShizaku]

Sounds like a dubstep song is it ??

[justahatch]

awesome song and sick sticking

[tbopne]

are you swinging decks of cards? lol thats what it looks like.

[sabatoziksate]

are u using ultra glowsticks.......o n nice video

[MrMrjdizzle]

2:08 = supersick

[tyediemafia913]

yo yo for real i love seeing my house in this lol and rave this friday you better be there cant wait to get down with ya again

[Azkahoodgonlin]

your really good. i've been glowsticking for about a year and a half or so, and i can already do my 2 bt weave, 3 bt weave, buzzsaw, fountain (ish, not perfect), butterfly, 360 weave, body wraps, backhand 2 beat weave, and beack hand 3 beat weave. im a fan of your work, and i ws wondering if you could check out some of my own videos, and give me some tips on helping me to be able to get the flow right? any help would be appreciated. thanks!

[SaitoChikara]

What is/are the song(s) you have in the video? Sounds kinda like Deadmau5, but I can't put my finger on it.

Thanks!

[joshua1davison]

@SaitoChikara song is in the description

[WonkaRaver]

@SaitoChikara Deadmau5 couldnt ever make dubstep this good

[Purplexold]

@WonkaRaver excuse me?

[WonkaRaver]

@Purplexold in response to someone thinking this sounded like Deadmau5, so i will repeat again Deadmau5 could never make dubstep this good. have u heard "Raise your Weapon"? its a flaming piece of garbage just like the mau5man himself, fuck deadmau5 and fuck mau5trap

[sabatoziksate]

@SaitoChikara Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed Jakwob Remix

[jsdubon82]

By far the best In youtube! very impressive, I am 28 y/o and I have been to a lot of fucking raves across the world . You are as good or better than many I have seen.

[mindciller]

pacman did a nice edit. check out his new vid! the edit is KLEEN

[naruto99124]

all i can do is a figure 8 atm lol im just getting started into this. any website that could show me how to do more?

[naruto99124]

all i can do is a figure 8 with the glowsticks atm lol. any website that could help me learn more?

[psykhogamer69]

dammit all...levi your gonna make have to learn this now, you realize this no?

[luda12000]

Sick video dubstep is the best music to spin to hands down

[878mrgrim]

AMAZING

[TheKennethkoenig]

wow ur really good. i just got into this stuff a few months ago. its wat i do every night. hopefully someday il b really good. haha

[XmsKimpoiX]

Wow Beautiful Im Starry =*.*= Eyed Now :) x

[winningtolose]

can somebody tell me what the move at 1:51 is called

[cheaaa21]

bleh the tracers make me want to do acid right now lol your good bro and i'm glad that you don't just sit there and do thousands of wraps haha i love flowers and beats butterflys fountains all that stuff isolated stuff it blows my mind also behind the back =]

[skiboarderMD22]

are your glowsticks chemical or electric? and if theyre electric what kind of sticks are they? ive been looking for a good pair of electric ones that will last a long time so i can dont have to keep buying chemical ones

[joshua1davison]

@skiboarderMD22 regular glowsticks are the way to go haha, but check out flowtoys.com for some pretty sweet LED sticks

[mehmeh55]

wow...amazing. i legit just started spinning, and i cant seem to be able to move my hands independently, like my left hand isnt as fast as my right :P and umm dubstep?

[Tman1101]

your skills are fucking nice man but i have a question. do you tie the string to yoru middle finger or just keep it coiled in your hand? i started stringing like 3 months ago

[joshua1davison]

@Tman1101 i actually just set the string in my middle fingers, their loose and flexible that way!

[Tman1101]

@joshua1davison ah i see you lol. ive been stringing with 2 sticks on one string and i started dabbling with the duel wielding the sticks

[mykeylmbaao]

very nice.

when i first saw your first vid i was impressed.

and now. just wow.

if you performed like this back then. well. yeah.

i poii too. its like my life.

i carry my flowlights and old sticks most places i go.

cant wait to see more ^^ ill have some up as well soon too

[joshua1davison]

@mykeylmbaao always glad to hear about more friendly spinners! Let me know when you get some videos up, I'd love to check them out

[lillmeezy]

OMG you are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO goood ... also awsome editing.. im high right now so yeh...

[DJTimesTable]

hey do you remember what kind of sticks your using at 2:10?

[joshua1davison]

@DJTimesTable they are actually just regular blue ultras, they look different because the color was edited for the video

[HardstyleMatt]

Love it.

You're awesome, I hope i get to your level of skill, eventually, Only started to practice recently so maybe in 5 years :P

Love the effect the camera gives off to, the lower frame rate shows like 10 glow sticks rather than a straight blur. Looks cool

[joshua1davison]

@HardstyleMatt for more glowsticking videos with awesome editing, check out P4CIVI4N

[sathrien]

thanks for the advice befor

2:07 does that have a name cuz it looks amazing

[sathrien]

@sathrien 2:04 my bad

[joshua1davison]

@sathrien the spiral thing?

[turdysong1]

Dang mann!

I tried stringing but I hurt myself too much and my friend got me into freehand.

Its tough bro. Especially if your moving from HxC dancing to this cause raving is all about flow and peace. Mines all jerky and its really fun. Even though I suck.

Your sick man

[sectornine989]

those are some gnarly lookin moves man.

[REZINE89]

hey im thinking i wanna get into this what would be my biggest problems??? and any helpful tips would be great

[joshua1davison]

@REZINE89 well lets see, practice and people to perform for. If your passionate then it will be second nature. Everyone has their own style but you can start by watching tutorials on the basics. Its my favorite thing to do, i think you'll really enjoy it!

[wcjokertwo]

0:55 freaking epic

[joshua1davison]

@wcjokertwo thanks!

[alienwrkshop51]

Annnnd, I like this one better than your other video I just commented on. Im guessing your from GS.C, great place over there from what I hear, you have some awesome moves and your freehand skills are second to none. Love it

[joshua1davison]

@alienwrkshop51 hey thanks a lot man, I have an account of GS.C but I do not visit very much, I live in kansas and all of the people there live in big towns and get together a lot. I actually for the most part glowstick with a couple people in close towns or on my own. What about you?

[alienwrkshop51]

@joshua1davison Haha, sorry it took so long to respond. I live in Central FL myself, the area that I live in has ZERO glowstickers, but an hour or so drive away and the scene explodes so I do manage to get to spin with some people around here every now and then. How is the scene up in Kansas?

[joshua1davison]

@alienwrkshop51 hey its all cool man, well anyways I live in middle eastern ks and in my town there were a couple old school stickers like 4 years ago. But now I go to Kansas City Missouri to meet up with a few dudes that shred over there.

[poptartiscrazy]

That was awesome, truely beautiful art.

[sathrien]

how did u do that at 2:08?

and what do u think is better regular glowsticks or the LED sticks?

[joshua1davison]

@sathrien regular glowsticks are the best,

[ShadeNocturne]

Hey can you possibly make a tutorial for those freehand transitions you use in your videos?

[joshua1davison]

@ShadeNocturne i have never made a tutorial but i could do that if you want to

[chucaswatjfan]

man, that move at 1:35 is sick! thats proof of how well you know your strings. absolutely amazing!! 

[catoffun]

I love your style. You keep your plains so flat, and spin speed controlled.

[ColdAsIceman]

3:00 beast shit :P and how long are your strings? i use 30's

[ColdAsIceman]

3:00 beast shit :P

[liddlexxleahxx01]

I don't know how to work this cuz I'm a noob but oh ma gaash your transitions are so coool.

[liddlexxleahxx01]

@liddlexxleahxx01 I meant word lol.

[normais15]

The Lights Are So Mesmorizing.. Keep Doing What You Do Cuz' You're Awsome!

[jitpunkia]

thats a really nice video

[DippNDots]

how do you do that trick around 1:50? I know you catch them on the strings but i can't get it going as long as you do it, like i can't keep them spinning when they're close together like that :O

[joshua1davison]

@DippNDots its all about linking the strings together with the same length on each side, and pulling the strings with the same force at a perpendicular angle from the strings, hard to explain but easy to show. Check out "Orbital tutorials"

[joshua1davison]

@KornFanNash thanks man I did some glowsticking in a coffee shop one time when one of my friends was dj'ing lol pretty fun shit. Free coffee, song is Starry eyed by Ellie Goulding (jakwob remix)

[KornFanNash]

I love the vid bro. sick ass dubstep song whats the name? i glowstringed on fremont street in las vegas to some techno they were playing there. i was just doing it for fun but people were throwing me fives and shit i was pretty stoked

[KornFanNash]
