I have been doing poi for the past two years and can virtualy do
everything now. My latest attempts at combining the two have not been
too great tho. Soon as both poi are on one side of your body it
becomes very difficult to stay up straight.

I've done fire poi on a flaming unicycle a couple of times now. I've
done weaves, behind the back weaves, butterfly with it all lit. Without
it lit, corkscrews are fine, if a bit too likely to break down so I hit
myself, I think I did arm wraps on it too.
A picture or two here, although they're pretty rubbish pics

My tips would be:
1) Smaller wheel is easier as you don't hit the wheel.
2) If you're doing weaves behind the back, stand up whilst you're doing
it, it's hard to do it high enough not to hit the wheel otherwise.
3) If you're doing butterfly, keep it nice and high.
4) When you're weaving, lean your body against the weave to keep the
unicycle going in the same direction.
5) If you're doing it somewhere people walk dogs, be aware that your
average person will be quite scared of a bunch of vast flames heading
towards them on an incredibly unstable vehicle.
6) If you manage to learn to do 180 turns with the weave on a unicycle,
post some tips on here, I could only get them by dropping into straight
spinning, doing the turn then back into the weave.
