Vortex Poi with Helix Handles

They are soooooo bright. A bit in the heavy side, but so worth the quality of the led and light. They seem very well made.

I definitely loved these poi . I will be creating a tutorial on how to use the handle and also the bases are beyond bright. So beautiful. Check out socal media flowhippie for tutorial.

Love how vibrant it is!!! Can't stop!

The experience with the Vortex Poi has been magnificent. Like any toy, it has its pros and cons compared to other hardware, but overall, they are better than expected. First of all, the fact that it has 2 ways to use the heads, either as sockpoi or as conventional poi with a cord, is mind-blowing. I always carry both possibilities with me, which makes it very versatile. Personally, I bought these pois to use them with the cords.

Secondly, one of their biggest advantages is the ability to independently control the 2 poles of lights, turning them into a poi with 2 separate programs, each with their respective patterns. I didn't expect them to be so good and so bright, almost blinding. Being independent, you can play with just one light on, which is already quite bright, and thus save battery. Believe me, one light is bright enough. The number of colors and patterns is high by default. My favorites are the calypso and the strong pink. Moreover, if you get used to creating your own custom combinations, the possibilities are endless.

The user manual taught me how to correctly use the modes and create new combinations, and how to make the most of the patterns in each mode with the new custom colors. The pro cord untwister allowed me to unlock the Ultraloop for the first time, which is quite exciting and shows how great this piece is. The quality of the sockpoi fabric is excellent and refracts the light incredibly.

Some people might think that using AAA batteries in this poi can be problematic, but the truth is that it's not if you are careful to always have your batteries charged. Having another set of batteries within reach or at a store is very positive in case of any unexpected situation, and you can always rely on recharging them. If you don't have any more batteries, you don't have to wait for the lights to charge; you simply replace them with your spare battery set, which is an advantage over all USB pois.

On the other hand, the process of installing the batteries takes time and should be done carefully because you have to untangle the cord or remove it from the sock and then from the case before the flow moment. The only drawback in my experience was that sometimes the light would rotate inside the case, changing the direction in which the lights were pointing. I solved this by adding a strip of transparent tape inside the case, which prevented the movement of the light. And also, the weight of the light plus the weight of the case is quite heavy, which can be tiring. That would be all. I highly recommend these pois for their versatility, quality, and they are literally the brightest pois on the market. <3

Hello, so I have a set of Vortex poi, bought as my first professional set of poi before I read the informative "find your poi" page. They are pretty heavy for a beginner but there's no worry, I got a set of Helix Pro poi and they are awesome and bright like the Vortex's but way lighter, duh :)) can't wait to build the experience and endurance to use the Vortex's without the fear of a tiny asteroid hitting me:)) Oh yes the Ultra Knobs. I mounted them on the Helix set since I'm using that one the most and I love them as well, money well spent. All I got left now is to train! Shout out for Drex as well as for UltraPoi! Keep up the good work guys, sending love and good vibes from Romania<3!

I really enjoy the ease of these poi! i added the Ultra Knobs and the weight distribution feels very natural. I usually spin with longer poi but I fond my self really enjoying the over length of these witch are about 23" with the Ultra knobs attached. They are great because you can easily swap out AAA battery's when they are low power in contrast to only having the option to charge them. The lights gave me full power capacity for a couple hours! They are great for preforming in festival settings and brought a lot of attention from the spectators verse using the orb poi, which are bright but no as bright as these in my opinion. They are light weight and was able to throw them effortlessly, and fit into my hydration back pack nicely! The strobe options are easy to navigate and I love the different settings. Overall I am really pleased with this product and I would recommend anyone to buy them!

Learning to spin poi was my pandemic project, and after a year of a using a cheap set I found on Amazon for $20, I finally decided to level up and get the full Vortex Poi set with Helix Handles. The versatility this set offers is awesome, as I can switch from rope to sock, from glowstick to pod, and even combine the glowsticks and pods. Having said that, one of the socks did arrive with a tear in it, but all it took was a quick email to Ultrapoi, and a replacement was on its way. Overall, great product and great customer service!

These poi are show stoppers! When I break them out everyone turns their head and clears room for me to flow. Beautiful lights show and the set is very nice!

Overall I love these props! I’m still getting used to the weight. They are heavier than any poi I’ve come across, by a significant margin. I have still to figure out how I would get remove the stretchy string handle if I followed the instructions and attached them to go back to sock mode, but the socks are amazing. More bright color than dead space with these things! Can’t wait till I can handle their weight like it’s natural. :)

Fantastic Poi set with amazing visuals. Love that you can spin them 2 ways, will be great for performances.

Great product.i just love this poi.it really suprise me how bright they are and the length is perfect.

We have been looking at them for months and months and finally decided to take the plunge.
Pros:
- The heavy weight makes some stalls easier and cleaner.
- The programmability of colors is a welcome feature, but I don't see myself using it a ton.
- They are extremely bright.

My Favorite set to spin, and I have a lot!

I ordered a pair of ultra poi with socks lights worked perfectly. I have seen what one can do and very eager to spin a solid pair.

UltraPoi are, hands down, the best poi available for the money. The colors are plentiful and bright, the modes are plentiful, and as such the fun with customization is endless. These lights put on a ridiculously unique show, and let you project your favorite custom color patterns (or one of the well-thought-out preset color patterns) across some very diverse strobe modes.
Also, make sure you order PLENTY of ultra socks. I don't think these poi look good on leashes whatsoever, and the ultra socks really bring out the unique functionality of the poi, but they wear and tear, quite literally and quite quickly. It's nothing a simple sewing session won't fix, but eventually, your socks will be dirtied and ripped beyond use, and seeing as how they are the best way to go, they're worth the extra $20 for some security (especially if you're new to this type of light).
If you love to spin and put on a bright show for people, these can't be beaten for the price. I am in love with my ultra poi, I will gladly send them in when I need them replaced or additional parts...

Well they are kind of light and one of the led balls keeps shorting out.

Love it, for real for real!

Really fun set of poi.

Could not be happier with my order

Not good one light busted and not bright after one night

Hands down the only poi I've bought because they are so mesmerizing

So much brighter in real life !!! Even in the day time!

I love my poi sets! I’ve already purchased three sets - they are excellent quality and are so much fun. I’ve purchase poi from other companies, but I’ve had issues with the materials, or they just stop working for whatever reason. I won’t buy from any other company. Ultra Poi is the best if you’re serious about poi.
