Those fricking Poi LED ball things are really heavy, and the length of rope while I'm twirling them aligns up exactly with my crotch. So yeah, I quickly quit doing Poi. Fire ones aren't so bad, but I wasn't taking any chances, based on previous experiences.
I know what you mean about the Aussie Laser laws. I've only bought 1 new laser since they came in, and I even managed to import it legally (parts = legal), but still my laser collection is done. So I'm taking no more risks, but I sure as hell ain't taking up Poi again, lol.

hm, never mind. it does emit cyanide, but only in small amounts.
"Burning Kevlar produces... mostly carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and small amounts of hydrogen cyanide, ammonia, aldehydes, aliphatic hydrocarbons and other toxic gases, depending on conditions of burning"
according to the MSDS
Yesh, getting hit in the balls sucks, but crotches on fire aren't too bad

Sorry for necromancy
'Flowlights' are quite light. Or wire your own led stuff up. How hard could it be? =P
Ball shots are unfortunately unavoidable. Forwards spin = ball shot, backwards = face-shot.
Concerning fire, it's the CHAIN you got to worry about, rarely the wick itself. You can punch a flaming wick over and over like a speedball. =P The chain is really f**king hot and if you wrap your wrists you're in for a world of pain. Which is why you wear kevlar/nomex gloves, and all cotton/wool clothing. An un-fueled sleeve of kevlar over the chain closest to the wick is handy for this too.
The kevlar itself isn't burning, I think. Most people soak their kevlar in kerosene which only burns at about 300-350C iirc.
