Sp4de Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I was wondering if anyone in TIF is a "raver." By raver, I mean someone who freehands with glowsticks or strings glowsticks, or follows the code P_L_U_R. I recently got into Glowstringing and i've found it really fun. But dang, it does take practice.. alot of practice. I've been doing it about a week or two and i've gotten a few moves down. 2 beat weave, 3 beat weave, butterfly, spirals, a few wraps.. Oh and I think if I don't stop hitting myself in a certain area, i'll be unfertile by the age of 20. Anyone else share this hobby? ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï(̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâú_o)/̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jak722 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 My roomie is... He has a whole bunch of glowsticks in his drawer and in a can, plus unopened ones too.

ctp080188 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 There's a guy in my Uni who is infamously known as GLOWSTICK MAN, he even appeared in our university newspaper with him having an interview. He was talking about big 30cm glowsticks he used for special events or something... Yeah he's a bit weird. SHH HUT YUH MUH. DERKHED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trail of light is from the drugs.... I used to have a link to my school's project to provide fresh water to a Kenyan Village, but the sig police changed the link to say something, which, if followed, leads to an "ahem" adult website. Let me ask you. Which do you think is worse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viktorkrum77 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Yeah, that would be an expensive hobby. Glowsticks arn't cheap. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe glowsticking is a type of juggling. Like devils sticks, diabolo, poi, staff spinning, plate spinning, etc... Me doing staff.

Sp4de Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 Glowstringing [which is my uhh "form of art"] is very very similar to poi. Just without the fire. Alot of Glowstringing moves are taken from Poi and such. Oh, and glowsticking/stringing isn't an expensive hobby. 1$ per at dollar stores, 88cents at Walmarts [sometimes]. But you should simply practice with dead ones. ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï(̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâú_o)/̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viktorkrum77 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I can fire staff spin, and sort of diabolo, if that counts for anthing. I'd think at least fire staff spinning is similar to glowsticking, but much more dangerous. Me doing staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deloriagod Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 What if that person noticed you and pulls out nunchucks and chases after you and your friends? :| Then we'd laugh even harder =) Yeah.. Real nunchucks hurt like hell. I've seen some made out of metal and my dad his a set made of wood. Either way, you wouldn't be laughing. Glowstringing [which is my uhh "form of art"] is very very similar to poi. Just without the fire Psh.. It's not fun if there's no chance of seeing someone start themselves on fire :P I watched that video, and didn't think it was too amazing until I saw him doing both at once. And it probably would look much cooler in person/in the dark. Internet Marketing For Newbies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real glowstringing = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfJg6T0nakM It looks about 30 times better in real life, cameras don't catch the glowstick and it's full glory. ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï(̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâú_o)/̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsdragon Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Cameras do no justice to glowsticking/stringing If you don't see it IRL you're missing out I'm a noob glowsticker(freehand) I can figure8 and semitrace and kindasphere >_> but I hold the glowsticks differently than it's usually instructed To hold it like I do: Make the devil horns with your index and pinky fingers put a glowstick in between your up fingers and your middle/ring fingers grip I don't know how it turns out though, I'll ask one of my friends tomorrow or friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's something do, I say it's better to fling glowsticks around and hit yourself in the nuts on accident, then to sit around and get drunk. ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï(̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâú_o)/̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
