Big monkeyfist poi
The biggest monkeyfist poi in my stock. It is characterised by giant flames and a very long burning time. You can perform a 10-minute choreography as well and its fire will not fade.
It can seem heavy for the first time (it is), but once you are get to used to it, playing will be very comfortable. Because of the huge rounded shape, the fire is symmetric and it draws a wide, smooth fire trail in the air.
The wicks are made from an old sailors knot, called the monkeyfist. It is know as diamond knot as well. Its centre, instead of the generally used wooden ball, is made from kevlar that lengthens the burning time, too.
Closely to the wicks, there are two split rings, which can not foul anywhere thankfully to their small size. These can hold 60kgs each, so the pois are very safe. I use 50cm long welded chains with a swivel at their ends to avoid the chain from curling up.
I use single loop handles that are fixed to the chain by a swivel. This kind of handle is very easy to use, moreover it is safe and comfortable. The handle should be worn on the little finger, so you can lead the poi precisely with your thumb and index finger.
Optionally, you can order the pois with monkeyfist handles, if you like the throwing tricks.
