OrbPoi Pro w/ Non-LED Handles

I really enjoy the feel of the product and it's functions are amazing. The only thing is that the knobs take a lot longer to die out before the orb does but that's understandable.
Otherwise, 100% recommend to others.

I posted a review a few days ago-- I wanted to post a photo too, but couldn't figure out how to edit my previous post. So here I am-- the blind woman in FL who is learning/trying/flailing all alone, by herself, with only the help of the great Flow Artists who make videos to teach others. Thank you!

I still LOVE the Poi the best, but no one ever mentioned how dang sore I will be! I mean, my muscles going up into my neck and head hurt, and also my pecs, trapezoids, whatever, my chest, shoulders, neck and head muscles hurt from the exertion. It's just, I want to spin SO badly! I wake up thinking about it. I watch videos all day..... and I try. These Poi are heavy, a real workout for someone like me, who is getting the senior discount at all of the local restaurants, hahaha. I'm OLD! And BLIND. But I am determined!

Let me tell you guys, these Poi are so freaking bright! i mean, they literally hurt my eyes! Oh, and yes, those are safety glasses, because I got hit in the eye, and all it took was one hit for me to realize that I will need some protection, considering I am already legally blind. My legs--they need bubble wrap!!

And I need about a good quart of Bengay for my aching neck!!

Bye, fellow spinners! Thanks for the love!

Love it thank you

I purchased the OrbPoi pro after my Spinballs were damaged in the rain at Lost Lands.
Shoutout to the homie Brendon for letting me give his set a shot during the Mersiv set (instantly convinced me to buy).
The product is incredibly well built and easy to use. When beginning to learn contact moves the counterweights are incredible and the hybrid rope prevents chafing between the fingers. I am removing one star as the plastic end caps on my ultraknobs popped off and now there is a little piece that rattles around inside the handle. Ill just super glue it or order new handles.

Hi! I'm Molly, from Florida, I am new to Poi. New to flow arts. AND I am blind.... (legally). I have a little vision, so I can see the colors of the Poi, and this is what caught my attention-- a video I came across by DrexFactor Poi, and I knew I HAD to try this! I'm 56F, and have NO dancing skills.....but I am looking at my Poi journey as a mix of Tai Chi, flowing, small dance moves, and a LOT of fun!
I am in the grieving process for my Mom, who was all I had, and when I am *trying* to "flow," I realize I am not hurting so much, because I am so focused on what I'm trying to do. I find a lot of the tricks, and movements, I can feel/do them better with my eyes closed, after I watch first HOW to DO the move...... this is a process! And I am enjoying it.

These Poi are heavier than I anticipated. But like I said, I am a beginner. A total beginner. I started with SpinBalls, and they are nice and soft, but Drex's reviews convinced me I wanted this set== with the UltraKnobs. The upgrade.

The ropes are a nice thick size, and the weight is perfect! The weight of the handles are perfect for catching. I am able to toss and catch the Poi some of the time, haha. And the Poi heads themselves are a lot heavier and hit a lot harder than the smaller SpinBalls (from another company, for those who are not sure).

However, the weight is perfect! I can attest that these Poi light up bright! Even in the day! I am still learning how to change the colors/modes.... but that will come.

Also, I HAD to go out and buy myself a few pairs of safety glasses, FOR ME, but only because I am visually impaired--legally blind--and I have struck/hit/nearly knocked myself out, with a hit to my eyes a couple of times. I can't take a chance, so I got safety glasses, and they are perfect for me. No one can really see them, and I don't care anyways!

I would recommend these Poi definitely to anyone who knows how to flow. They are reliable, they have been dropped and lobbed and slammed into the ground by mistake so many times, yet they still continue to keep going!!

The craftsmanship is great. The video I watched about this company, and the two brothers who started it, and the technology they put into these LED lights to make them look like they are ribbons or fire, is just fantastic! That is why they were pricey---but SO worth it!

A big shout out to DrexFactorPoi for his reviews and videos. He is the reason I purchased these.
