Bow, an innovator in the world of juggling and poi, is the creative mind behind Zip Poi. Coming from a juggling background, Bow felt a need to push the boundaries of traditional poi spinning and explore fresh possibilities. Inspired by his passion for rope balances and manipulation, Bow set out to design a prop that not only suits traditional poi tricks but also introduces a unique element: the ability for the poi head to slide along the rope during various movements.

Despite being the static rope with the least shrinkage percentage on the market your Zip Poi are still going to shrink by up to 2 cm. All ropes shrink eventually. It is due absorption of humidity and other elements.

Zip Poi ropes may experience a slight shrinkage of up to 2 cm over time.

Maintaining your Zip Poi is simple:

1. Avoid Water Exposure: Minimize water contact, especially with sea water, to prevent accelerated shrinkage.

2. Store Indoors: Keep your poi indoors to avoid dew and humidity, which can speed up rope shrinkage.

3. Clean Sweaty Hands: If your hands tend to sweat, consider wiping down the poi to reduce the impact on shrinkage.

4. Regular Check-ups: Periodically inspect your Zip Poi for any signs of wear or damage.

Remember, a little care goes a long way in preserving the quality and performance of your Zip Poi.
