Wtf is this? Gloves with Different colored lighted finger tips?
Definity creative but not my style. More like dancing than anything else.

Basically what Nardath said. But it might be cool to tie those onto a bali then start flipping.

Actually one reason I got into balis was to show my friend how stupid his finger lights were in comparison to balisong flipping. :lol:

I like the look of them at raves and stuff, but any retard can put a pair on and look like hes a master at them. It doesnt take much skill to master. Glowsticking/stringing on the other hand is almost as hard as flipping.

it's also well known as "poi" amongst those who do it well. it's a form of martial arts.

More because it's fun to watch and interesting.

I do not agree. you could say the same thing about balis. this takes time and practice as well. being able to move your fingers in fluid motions at fast speeds as well as going with the music is not something anyone can just do for the first time.

I will admit I've seen plenty of glovers at raves that just annoyed me or i thought really sucked. but there are people out there who practice this art and do it well.


also here's a pretty sweet poi vid:

I've messed with the glow finger things befor and they're really not that hard to do. But that chick with the glowstick poi was impressive. I can do a few things like that but I still think it's more fun when you get adreanaline from something that can really hurt you.

the adrenaline rush from something that could actually hurt you

Poi can most definatly hurt you, ive labeled myself in the nuts more times than i can count, my face too. also when u spin fire ur well... spinning fire, which can definatly hurt you.

Fair enough, I didn't really think about that. I've done bo staff for a little bit longer than balisong but I never practice, and I've drilled my thighs and the back of my head with it a few times. But I still say you get more of a rush when something bladed is flying around.

I actually think those gloves are pretty cool, and you're good at using them too! Right on man.
