Silks to contact

My first contact poi just came and I think I have many bruises from them in the last 5 minutes.

They are so heavy compared to my silk ones… but also I feel like I have less control, any tips?

Should I just get a refund and maybe get sock poi instead so I can up the weight gradually instead of go from 80g silks to 150g hard balls…?

Maybe my problem is that it’s hard and I just need to practice but I’m impatient?

Thanks 🙏

Obsessed with poi

New..ish to poi and I wanted to finally post and say hi as this seems like a really friendly community, it’s been about 2 months now on /off whenever I have free time outdoors and I love it, such a nice way to kill an hour in nature to music, it’s like free therapy!

I’m just about to get my second pair, contact poi so I can learn harder tricks you can’t do with the silks.

Also really want to get bubble poi eventually but can anyone recommend a place to get some as I can only see the bubble poi page which has popped up over night on instagram and everywhere and seems like a ai scam, unless someone has bought from them? 🫣🤷‍♀️

New to Poi

Hello!!

So I’m about to buy some Poi balls and I’m wondering what will be best to buy?

LED 80g poi balls or ribbon poi balls? I worry that if I learn in the ribbon which is lighter it might be harder to do led in the future if it’s heavier?

Thank you in advance ✨🙏
