this guy had to start out as a glowstringer at some point. he's got all sorts of nuts dodging bullets like that

Never seen fire poi spun with such a glowstring style. That was fantastic.

The best performance on youtube; utter mastery of POI!

OMG that was the best poi performance i´ve ever seen ! Congrats, i started spinning at june and i am totally in love with the poi and staff. this was insane! Congrats again.

How to learn this? - Hours and hours ad hours of joyful Training - Crazy, locks like full control at any position. Great.

crazy! one of the coolest poi videos on youtube, definitly.

just incredible flow...thanks so much for sharing and for the inspiration!!!

So sick. Why doesn't this video have more views. Amazing skills. I am a huge fan of the glowstringing Fire style.

Unbelievable his ability to spin that poi!! I hope to do a something like that after a life of practice 🤣🤣 Greetings from Mexico!! :D

first time ive seen glowsticking wraps incorporated into poi. i guess anything is possible with fire poi as long as ur wearing protection haha. i am in love with his weave variations. very creative.

you are insanly Good John!!! best fire poi vid i have ever seen... i think :)

Incredible!

Thanx man! At last a good poi video!

That was amazing. Great job brotha. Keep flowing and upload more of the action! ~burn on~

Still amazing!!! 💖

I'm blown away. Haven't checked this for a while and can't believe it has so many plays, thank you to much for watching and sharing everyone! :) to answer a couple questions.

The first tune is ragtime cat by parov stelar

The guy is super good but the camera man is way too close.

Nice

Pierre, just watched your 2012 performance. Outstanding! Johnny is a great friend of mine and always open to constructive criticism. You should hit him up!

I have to spin with you one day! I don't subscribe to people, new at this and wow... Found you dude, your a great spinner!

11,000 views!!! Thanks for sharing and watching everyone :D

nice one

that commentary...LOL. Great spinning :)

Check out this years RAW performance, brought to you by Castland Productions. Solterra Circus Arts on facebook, Extra Sensory Productions, yeah yeah boi! :D John AutoBahn Performs Fire Poi at RAW Awards Denver - Castland Productions

26 inch double loop pair of pro-series cords(ball chain) with medium cathedral wicks. Ball chain is not the most durable, gotta be careful about tugging on orbitals or tangles, I would recommend links if you're worried about them breaking, but I love cathedrals.

Those poi are either wonderfully soft, or there are bruises all over his arms and legs.

maestreoo

what weight are the fire poi used? they look pretty light to have glowstring speed capabilities. my poi are too heavy to go that fast.

this is pretty fuckin sick

Good spinning. 😊

whats the 1st song coud anyone plz tell me?

How do I contact/find this guy?

and what is the length of the chain? (from crazytoys, home of poi or which shop) Sorry for these questions, but im gonna buy steel ball chain, and i need it to be very tough so i ask always when i can :D )

OMG! This was amazing! The guy that is filming - did you start training?

What might be the name of the first tune? I really liked it, Great performance!

Very talented fire spinner. I can definitely tell that he started with glowsticks. A very wrapped base style with a lot of btb with more flow than tech, doesn't make it any less impressive though. Also, dear people taking the video... remember everything you're saying is being recorded and you sound ridiculous. :P

Where do you live? And do you teach or swing with any groups? I have a similar style but not as advanced as yours.

I got the from home of poi

haha kobe whoo lol great video and flow btw

pro

anyone got the name of the second song?

ok, one question the poi doesn't look new and has some soot/black on it, yet the shirt stays clean when he bounces them of his body HOW? do yu just clean the black with a cloth and that's it? I do not use any cover on my poi heads and I ALWAYS get dirty during training (plus when i practice indoors I make the walls dirty which really annoys my landlord :P)

Just helpin' out... but it depends on the fuel you use in addition to your wrap skills. Basically at the speed he does it but with the proper fuel.

What kind of liquid used for soaking? We in Ukraine do not know how to get rid of the black traces of kerosene ))

What is the kind of poi u use for show ? and fuel ?

teach me master

Parov Stelar - Ragtime Cat ft Lilja Bloom The name of the 1 song ;)

Great performance, the one thing I'd like to see is a little more speed variation in his spinning. His style is fast and clean but there is no crescendo. Fast spinning is a good effect when contrasted with slow spinning, more speed variation would make the performance more dynamic and interesting to watch for the entire duration

lawl who needs protection?

What was used to film this?

I use twin cathedral heads with ball chains, the fuel is just coleman white fuel :-)

Does anyone know the move at 1:44 ? Where the guy is screaming 'What is that!?' I actually wanna know :P

What is the name the first song?

Это просто 5

he has a glowstick style where most things are fast i think.don't you?

I have been doin poi for a long time and im know where near as good as this, you make it look so effortless and easy. i have probably watched this 100 times and still think "how the hell does he pull all these moves together so easily and quickly" ABSOLUTE QUALITY!!!!!! the only reason i think it hasnt got more views is because of the thumbnail picture when you search for it, doesnt look appealing enough as fire poi.

#COMMENT108

Anyone knows what the move at 1:36 is called?

how do u do so many wraps and not get burnt

What kind of gloves are you using?

aggg :v

then everything changed when the fire nation attacked...

Check it out.. John in a cartoon.. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sJN3fZaV3quuiac.html This is how it would look in a less lit area.

Autobahn? seriously? That's so German and funny (:

Fire your camera man (pun not intended)

:(

i spin poi too, and just gotta say, wearing those clothes while the poi are burning is an incredibly unsafe thing to do. i have to say, you do a good job, but you probably dont practice in that suit, lol my only complaint is that its dangerous. GJ

bad focus camera .... :(

Very fine spinning 🔥 but terrible camera work!
