- Fire Ribbon Poi (left and right)
This fire poi leaves trails of fire particles behind it.

Box of old poi versions. These are only included for people that want the old versions for some reason. I advise using the newer version (unless you prefer the old ones.)

Horrible
I love many of the dance animations from Abra. Very disappointed with this product. The ribbons are segmented, not smooth. The poi glow is huge and unmodifiable, obscuring the dancer. I've watched a lot of fire dance videos and this is completely unrealistic. Don't waste your Lindens!
Terrific
This is well worth the money. The animations are smooth and gorgeous.
Animations are smooth~
However, I wish the different tricks and animations were automatic instead of me having to click each ability one at a time. Also, the tricks and moves seem to be a bit too fast for me and I don't get to enjoy it fully. Other than those issues, I do love this product.
Had a blast with this :))
This is great, looks very cool simply. But I do agree with others, that randomly selected auto-pilot type of function will be nice to have, especially because I bought this to make a video with it.
PS: I bought another similar product to this, from them, but this one is a way better product, looking much nicer just so you know if you wonder which one to buy.
Fast and reliable
had a little confusing situation regarding the product but the creator immediately worked on it. Couldn't be any happier. I'd rate it 6 stars for product and customer service :)
Sweeet
Its great that the poi chains are mod, cause im short.
No complaints here, but like others have said, a random button would be cool.
