my ankle, y try out, my poi
Posted 10-06-08 at 01:30 AM by spin
okay this is such bull shit.
i love poi i really do with all of my heart.
i live for poi. poi is pretty much all i'm good at.
and at my tryouts for pact/nuts (aka night under the stars) i was spinning and giving it almost my all and i decided to do (what i call) a split leg swich, and when i went to do it my glowstickS BROKE OFF!!! and when they broke off it distracted me and i wasn't paying attention to the landing. and i hurt my ankle. bad.
(but i still mad it on the show)
i went to the doctor. he said i have a really bad sprain and i broke one of the tiny bones in my foot.
he said i am under no conditions allowed to spin poi for 4 weeks. for 2 weeks i'm supposed to have crutches and you know what i told him
"FUCK YOU i'll just take advil"
and i walked out of the dr.s office
i said more but like yeah not posting it up here
i know i didn't handle it well but i'm going to perform in that show. i worked too hard to just have a dr. say "you cant do it"
what do you guys think of the situation?
:top :
PS by the end of this week i should have my new flowtoys crystal poi =)

I think that it all depends on how well it heals up... stay off it.. do what they tell you to do.. maybe it'll heal up in time... if not... you don't want to risk making any of the damage permanent =/

i agree, the doc isnt trying to tell you ya cant spin, but hes telling ya you need to take care of your foot. if you dont, you will have more down time later, if you reinjure it... take care of it now, and lay off the foot. use the crutches.
you can still spin, but you have to be careful with the foot hun. |

As much as im for spinning poi, i have 2 agree as well. Risking permanent damage is risky. i wouldnt want anything bad to happen to you =/ and like smile said hopefully itll heal up by the time of your performance.
