12 inch Dragon Blood Green Chucks with Ball Bearing Swivel
You will love this set of lightning fast chucks. They are simple and pure as they fly through the air. They come with ball bearing and chain and measure 12" long. A beautiful roaring dragon is imprinted on each of the sticks.
Etiquette
The "swinging arts" are getting a very bad reputation in some parts of the world, due in large part to a lack of good manners. To help bring peace and harmony to all concerned, we present some ideas for good swinging etiquette.
Know your space - Many swingers take little heed of who or what is around them before they begin. Besides being a safety risk, it's also very inconsiderate. Don't start swinging in the middle of someone else's workspace, and try to select a place where others won't be walking through all the time. This saves everyone from interruptions and harm.
Be aware - If a prop rolls into your work area, stop swinging or move to allow the person retrieving it safe access. Closing your eyes and swinging without a care for others is great for working on those hard tricks, but it doesn't work if you're in a room full of people. Also, as more children are participating in festivals, it's important to remember that they're probably not going to look out for you, therefore you must look out for them.
Be considerate - If someone has a prop that you'd like to look at or try out, don't attempt the tricks you can't do yet. I've had a couple of fairly expensive props broken because people said, "Wow! Neat prop! Can I try it?," and then as I stand watching them whap themselves, the ground, and the props, they say, "...I can't do this trick yet." If it's not yours, BE CAREFUL WITH IT! Don't take advantage of the kindness of others. This includes asking permission to try out props BEFORE you try them out, and keeping your trial period within the bounds of reason.
Be thoughtful - If you are working in a space and there's a workshop going on, move out of the way or better still, move to a different area. I once watched a group of about six poi swingers actually refuse to move when politely asked by a workshop instructor. This is not the way to make friends and get people to appreciate what you're doing.
