Getting into poi did wonders for my yoyoing. Poi is all about flow, and that flow will overlap into yoyoing.

Just started recently, after seeing some at the NER. It’s really fun, and all it requires is a couple socks and something to weight them with. Definitely can help improve your flow in yoyoing, just like kendama can help improve your coordination. Try it out!

I spun poi for about 13 years before giving it up. Going to yoyo was a very natural transition. While I miss the Symmetry I love the small spaces yoyos need to operate.
