very interesting, went to see what they were, and hug around to watch a few instructional videos.
reminds me of nun chucks, but softer and easier.
put off till tomorrow what you can do today, and if you procrastinate long enough, you may never have to do it.
They remind me of those "clackers" we made as kids. Well, we made them until they were banned. They had a bad habit of exploding as I recall...
If you always do, what you have always done, The results never change. Change is the wings you give yourself.
I think they are called "hackey sak" I think. My students used to kick them around on campus.
THEY were originally used by hula dancer as far back as i can remember they were called poi clackers. and they danced with them

HACKEY SAKS were small cloth balls played with your feet like soccer only one player. you had to keep it in the air and were about the size of lemons.
