Silk flag poi are made by world renown silk dye artist Phillip "FlaggerBoy" Bryan. Each pair of flag poi is hand dyed with lightweight silk as part of limited run lots of flags. While the flags have a beautiful and large visual impact, the lightweight nature of the silk combined with the ease of motion in the ball chain create a low resistance tool with almost as much flexibility as flag free poi.
See them in action in this video of GlitterGirl using a set of these flags in the day light.
Flags can be purchased for $67.50 for the silk material only.
