MANUFACTURING TIME: 3-5 days In the options below, choose your number of wicks placed on each end of the staff (Single, Double or Triple) and your preferred grip width. PLEASE COMMENT YOUR PREFERRED STAFF LENGTH AND WICK SPACING WHEN ORDERING Each wick is made from 7.5cm wide aramid tape which is rolled around the ends of the staff. Double or triple wicks can be placed together (to create a single, wide flame) or spaced out (to create multiple trails of fire). 19mm x 1.6mm aluminium tubing 100m of wick = 6cm wide roll 75cm of wick = 5cm wide roll 50cm of wick = 4cm wide roll Single Wicks: 1 x 6cm wicks on each end Double Wicks: 2 x 5cm wicks on each end (15cm together or 20cm spaced) Triple Wicks: 3 x 4cm wicks on each end (23cm together or 30cm spaced) Please consider the total length of your staff when choosing your number of wicks on each end, their spacing and your grip width. Custom specifications are also available on request - just ask! Each fire staff comes with drip catchers placed on each end between the grip and the wick(s) (space permitting) which helps absorb excess fuel before it reaches your grip. We use black tennis overgrip which is acknowledged internationally as the best grip for staves and contact staves. PLEASE NOTE: It is not recommended to store a freshly used staff in its case for too long. The fuel fumes may get absorbed by the grip which will make it slippery and stretchy. If this does happen, leaving your staff out of its case for some time will dry out the grip. To avoid this, leave the staff out overnight after using it in order for the fuel to evaporate properly. PLEASE NOTE: We recommend that you only use your fire staff when you are on fire and not to practice with. Rather use a practice staff to practice and make mistakes with OR cover your fire wicks with a few layers of old socks. This will help to extend the life of your staff’s wicks and keep your practice sessions clean and fuel-free. - [Fire Double Staves - Cylindrical Wicks](https://www.firetribe.co.za/product/fire-double-staff-cylindrical-wicks/) - A pair of perfectly balanced fire staves.

Our fire poi design is aimed at maximising fuel absorption, thus creating a longer burn, and minimising potential weak points making them remarkably durable. Storage tins sold seperately Specifications: Handles: double finger loops, heavy duty keyrings Chain: length is adjustable at keyrings (starting length is 49cm) Sizes: Light - 50cm of 7.5cm wide wick fabric (at least 5min burn time) Medium - 75cm of 7.5cm wide wick fabric (up to 8min burn time) Heavy - 100cm of 7.5cm wide wick fabric (up to 10min burn time) Extra Heavy - 150cm of 7.5cm wide wick fabric (up to 15min burn time) The amount of wick used determines how much fuel can be absorbed, which in turn effects the final weight of the soaked poi, the flame size and its total burn time. Choosing a weight depends on your poi experience, your physical strength and stamina and how much fuel you want to soak up. OPTIONAL SWIVELS Swivels are essential for some advanced, tangle poi moves such as Orbitals. They are not essential for the vast majority of poi spinning, but do contribute to a smoother experience. If you do choose swivels, you will need a pair of split ring pliers in order to adjust the length of your chains. PLEASE NOTE We recommend that you do not practice with your fire equipment and only use it when lit. Rather use practice poi to practice with. This will help to extend the life of your fire equipment and keep your practice sessions clean and fuel-free. - [Fire Hoop Wicks](https://www.firetribe.co.za/product/hoop-wicks/) - Turning your hoop into a fire hoop is as easy as adding Hoop Wicks!

Also known as Fire Wings, Angel Wings or Fire Snakes. FireTribe's fire ropes are light and easy to use and have been designed for maximum fuel absorption. Each rope has a loop at the top and a knot at the bottom which act like mini fuel tanks. This allows for a much longer burn time than other tried and tested designs. To shorten your ropes, use gloves to tie another knot at the bottom above the existing one. Storage case sold separately. MANUFACTURING TIME: 2-3 days CAUTION: Not recommended for beginners. Always keep fuel off your rope handles. PLEASE NOTE: We recommend that you only use your fire equipment when you are on fire and not to practice with. Rather use practice equipment to practice with.
