I'm outside just now, practicing poi, and I'm almost beginning to get this complicated new move, the five-beat weave. At least, I can sometimes do a whole iteration of it without whacking myself. Because of the nature of this beastie, my poi get tangled up together something horrible whenever I mess up. I'm pulling them apart and one just breaks. A link of the chain snapped clean off.
I kludged it back together and kept practicing. A minute later, the exact same thing happens to the other one. Snap. Poi flies off into the bushes.
What the hell! I wasn't even pulling hard! Why is this chain so shitty? (No wonder it was 59c a foot. *eyeroll*) It's dangerous. And now it's too late to go to the craft store, so I am stuck poi-less for the evening. I get some of my best practice at night!
GRAAAHHH!!!!!
