The Play Juggling 90mm Contact Poi are a high-quality pair of contact poi built for body rolls, tosses, stalls, isolations, and technical poi flow. With large 90 mm stage ball heads, thick 10 mm polyester rope, and silicone knobs, they provide a substantial, controlled feel with plenty of momentum.

Unlike traditional poi with smaller or lighter heads, contact poi use larger weighted balls designed to roll across the body and provide more predictable movement during contact techniques. The added size and weight also give tosses and stalls a distinct feel that makes contact poi a category of their own rather than simply oversized poi.

90mm Contact Poi Heads

Each poi uses a 90 mm stage ball weighing approximately 180 g. This is a popular all-around size for contact poi, providing enough diameter and weight for body rolls and contact techniques without becoming excessively large.

The spherical shape also provides a clean visual profile for isolations and performance while keeping the head predictable during tosses and catches.

Thick 10mm Polyester Tethers

The 10 mm 48-strand polyester rope creates a substantial tether with more visual and physical presence than the thinner cords commonly found on traditional poi. Its round, flexible construction works well for contact poi techniques while complementing the size and weight of the 90 mm heads.

An adjustable nylon collar system allows the tether length to be changed without rebuilding the poi, making it easy to fine-tune the setup to your preferred spinning length.

If you’re unsure how long to set your poi, check out our Poi Length Guide.

39mm Silicone Knobs

Each tether is finished with a 39 mm Play Juggling silicone knob. The knobs provide a comfortable, secure grip while also adding useful counterweight to the handle end of the poi for tosses and other technical movements.

Built for Contact & Technical Poi

These poi are suitable for beginners learning contact fundamentals as well as experienced spinners looking for a dedicated daytime contact setup. Their combination of large spherical heads, substantial tethers, and weighted silicone knobs makes them particularly well suited for:

  • Body rolls and contact techniques
  • Tosses and catches
  • Stalls and isolations
  • Technical poi patterns
  • Daytime practice and performance

If you’ve been spinning lightweight poi and want to explore contact techniques, expect these to feel noticeably heavier and more substantial. That’s part of the point.

Flow toys are props and tools used in flow arts, which is a movement based art-form that involves object manipulation. Flow props are extensions of your body and tools for self expression.

Despite being called “toys”, flow toys are meant for everyone and you will find that a majority of flow artists are actually adults! Contemporary flow arts include many modalities like dance, martial arts, or just “free-flow.”

The best flow toy to start with is the one that you’re most excited to learn. Although some props might be more difficult to learn than others, this differs greatly from one person to another. We found that the more excited you are to learn a specific prop, the more likely you will be to practice and learn quickly.

Stick props like dragon staff, contact staff, or spin staff can be easier for some since its a more static prop that you can hold onto. Rope props like poi and rope dart require more plane control at the beginning but are also much easier to travel with. Others like flow stars and pixel whips have their own kind of movements that don’t really fall into the other two categories we mentioned. But they’re super popular for ravers and festival goers!

We have a feeling you’ll end up owning more than one type of prop though so regardless of what your friend thinks is the best flow toy to start with, just get whatever you’re most excited to learn!

Fire dancing carries some inherent risks, but if you follow all of our fire safety instructions the risks are very avoidable. We recommend feeling super comfortable with a flow toy before lighting it on fire for the first time.

If you’re new to flow arts, we also recommend getting a daytime practice prop (or even LED prop) since you might be dropping your flow toy a lot when you’re first learning. The Kevlar on fire props can deteriorate much more quickly from repetitive drops, so practice props are ideal to keep them safe.

We have fire, LED, and daytime versions of most of our main props. Even if you can only afford one version and end up starting with a fire prop, they can be protected with wick covers. No matter what type you have, we recommend practicing on soft ground like grass to protect them as much as possible.

After you read the fire safety guide linked above and before lighting up you fire tool, please also read through our safety disclaimer.

We ship our products Monday-Friday from Los Angeles, CA, USA. Many of our listed products are ready-to-ship unless we have to assemble them, which can add a day or two to process. That being said, we ship out orders in the order they are placed within 1-2 business days (with some exceptions like holiday seasons). 

Once shipped, we use USPS for orders in the USA and usually UPS for all international orders. Ground shipping in the US usually takes about 3-5 business days from shipping date, while priority shipping can be between 1-3 business days from shipping date. These are estimations and not guarantees as USPS might have delays, but reach out to us if you are looking for more specific time frames!

We can’t promise any specific shipping timeframes for international delivery as customs can cause many unforeseen delays.

Of course! We’re just a text, email, or DM away from being able to answer any question you have. All of our contact details can be found here or you can scroll down to find the buttons in our footer. We’re active on social media too so we are pretty easy to get a hold of!

Poi are one of the most popular flow props in the world, consisting of weights attached to tethers that are swung rhythmically. They are usually used in sets of two, although three or more can be used for more complex spinning or juggling styles of poi flow. They come in a wide range of styles, from simple sock poi for beginners to elaborate fire and LED poi for experienced performers.

Poi spinning involves swinging the heads in various directions and timing, creating complex geometric shapes. The most common combinations are Same Direction Same Timing, Opposite Direction Same Timing, Same Direction Different Timing, Opposite Direction Different Timing.

Contact poi are a common style of poi nowadays, because the weighting allows for cleaner stalls and tosses. Other common types are glowstick style, snake poi, and stingers. Fabric poi are generally recommended for complete beginners because they don’t hurt as much when you hit yourself during the learning phase.
