    Alright every1,

    I'm a big poi enthusiaist! I've been doing poi for about 12 months and i Love it. I can juggle 3 balls also, but my passion is poi. I can do quite a few poi tricks, 3 and 5 beat weaves(forwards and backwards) butterflies, wraps, turns and some other random tricks.

    Is there any1 else into poi, any sort of societies or clubs that i could join?

    name: Chong
    age: 20
    location: Louth

    Help me out here, i need some1 else to spin with!

    Hi Chong,
    Try to come to the Tralee convention next month if you can. Have a look at homeofpoi.com too as it's the main hang out for poi people in Ireland. Don't give up on the 3 ball juggling! There's lots of juggling clubs in Dublin if you can make it in.

    This is where the Irish are: (warning full of hippies)

    Hi, I'm 13, I've been juggling for 3 years, I can Juggle 3 and 4 balls, 3 clubs, 3, and 4 rings and I can also do one diabolo. With 3 balls I can do mill's mess, Burke's Barrage, Romeo's Revenge, Chops, claws, yo-yo, elevator, reverse cascade and many others I've forgotten. With 4 balls I can do pistons,and half shower. With clubs I can do doubles, triples, quads (sort of), dips, chops (sort of) and columns. With 3 rings I can do dips, columns and ring grinds. With diabolo I can do toss, trampoline, stick grinds, cat's cradle, catch on halved string and back, suicides and whip catches (whilst I'm actually doing the diabolo).

    I can also do fire staff and a bit of fire juggling. :cool:

    Sorry it's so long.
    Update:
    I've finally got to five balls, and it's getting pretty solid. :D I've got four clubs nice and smooth, and I'm aiming my sights ever higher.

    Only problem is my ceilings too low :p

    I'm Kevin... I am 370 years old... I can flip 'tween ten or twenty patterns, three balls only... contemplating going up to four (ha ha ha ha) or five (ha ha ha ha)...

    I began juggling during the (roaring) 1920s... Sigmund Freud showed me the basics.

    Galway based now, how's it going..? <i>but</i> my fart will always be in Dundalk.

    Name: Ciaran Toher
    D.O.B.: 03/10/1990
    Location: Meath myself, but I juggle with Maynooth and the society

    Ability: 3 ball juggling (almost got 4), I've started learning contact, staff, club juggling and poi, but my mastery would be in flower sticks:D

    How it all stared: About 4 months ago when I started college. Was hanging around outside the students union watching the jugglers when one came up to me, and for lack of a better word, forced me to learn (but in a nice coaxing way). Been hooked ever since:D

    Latest Achievement: Recently got club juggling, mills mess, and for flower sticks I got a double pass under the legs there a few mins ago.

    And since it would appear these forumshave seen little action recently, anyone know where the jugglers talk over the interwebz these days?
