  • Hey Anna, i need your help with this... I have been into the rave scene a longggg time & have gotten amazing lightshows, i can do gloves but not glowstick poi... I just recently bought a bunch & am just barely learning.... Do you have any advice? I'm so confused, i tried everything you said but it's soooooo difficult for me... :( I'm not really sure how to move about my hands to do tricks without wacking myself lol..

  • @modafuckingyo

    The best advice I can give you for not wacking yourself, is to study plane control. Plane control is soo important in spinning. I started spinning and didn't really invest in learning what plane control actually is. Search for Barnzee1's video on this. This grip works for me, because I'd rather have my glowsticks on the outside of my hand rather than between my index finger and thumb. The only time I switch is when I'm doing buzzsaws.

  • everything you said helped me!! :)

    LEVEL UP!! ^1

  • @DarkTaintedSorrows

    Awesome, can't wait till you prestige!

    haha

  • really tank you! This will help me

    i'm trying to make an LED version because i wanna try different effects.

    i'm thinking abouth power supply... maybe little battery can be good.

    my prototype without batteries weght less than a 6 inch lightstick but i must have power cables...

    i've got a question: if the lightstick is a bit heavier (like a single AAA battery) is a big handycap?

  • @dallatorretdu

    Check out SyphonKiller's videos. He seems to be creating a new type of led glowstick. The heavier the stick the easier it is for poi type moves, a little more of a challenge for being quick and swift with wraps. It depends on how you handle the strings :D

    i've been lost as to how to tie the strings. but in all honesty. your way works SOOOO much better when doing spirals and arm wraps!!

    thanks so much for the video Anna!!

  • You're great Anna! I've dabbled a bit with glowsticks. I especially like to do it out camping. I came across your video the other day an it has motivated me to spend more time practicing. Thanks for that. Keep up the good work. You're very talented and fun to watch.

  • hi im tryna learn how to glowstick for school i was wondering if you could make me some tutorial videos on the basics that would be great! can you get back at me asap? cause i needa do the performance sometime next month thanks! and your glowsticking is dope

  • You should order your glowsticks from emazinglights and use my promo code BP75. The more sales they get with glow sticks the more colors they may get and construct.

  • I have a question. Will you marry me?

  • hey where do u get ur sticks from?? =]

  • hey your really good

  • @modafuckingyo go to playpoi.com great tutorials there for beginners...like anna said... def learn plane control and learn your front and back planes...

  • IIn a lot of your videos you do some sort of... I dunno what to call it, but it looks like you're pretending to be a chicken while spinning around. Whats that called?
