Glowstring...glow sticks on strings.

[Z32redondo]

So does anyone glow string here. Its some pretty good stuff when you find someone goos that knows how to do it. Especially at a rave club. Video of someone that is pretty good at it. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sD7xXbDQ1GE)

How long does it take to get pretty good at it? It looks like something that would be pretty kewl to be able to do.

i was never really serious at it, just played around with it here and there, its rather simple, not too difficult.

Started out in rave clubs when people would be on some sort of drug like X and it would intensify the effects. Dont be a prick man if you dont got nothing positive to add then GTFO.

[blacknightteg]

i have a friend that does it pretty damn well, i mean he's not the best but he's pretty good at it. only been doin it for bout a year or so. from watchin him do it. you just have to get into the music i guess and know what forms n i guess the way you swing the strings go with the way the music is going

Will's good at glowstringing? Hahaha, I doubt it. =D

I got into glowstringing aka poi for a bit but never found it too fun compared to dancing. At clubs, there's never enough room and you're just asking to be an attention whore with 'em... I prefer street dance styles (pop, lock, liquid, etc) and bodytracing with glowsticks.

Getting into glowstringing isn't too hard... get a lanyard or shoestring, hold one end with your fingers and pull the string to your shoulder of the same arm... thats the proper length you'll need for glowstringing. From there, just practice the basics first like the butterfly - spin both strings with glowsticks on them inwards and keep them consistant so they can interweave with each other... etc. etc.

Best way to learn is watch some poi videos or get a friend who can do it to show you hands-on. Once you learn the basics, you can learn all different styles... my favorite being bodywraps. If you're serious 'bout learning, be prepared to take a beating from those sticks. =D
