While we work on your beloved Pyro Tools, we'll go over fire safety tips to make sure everyone can play safely in their Fire adventures !

So you wanna get your Fire Spinning game on ?
We got your back !

We have 3 different ways you can choose from to wick your props !
Here they are:

- Sushi rolls : the most common way to wick props, rolling a flat kevlar wick around the tips and sewing it closed. It works great, and has a decent flame size and burn time.

- Isis Wicking : this technique relies on a specific knot made with kevlar rope. It’s a bit more difficult to make but has the advantage of giving you a longer burn time because of the texture of the knot and the way the fuel distributes into the kevlar.

- Monkey Fist : This is a common Knot used for Pois, rope dart and Staff ends.
It gives an impressive "Fire ball" effect as the end shape is round.

This Session is paired with "Fire Fans Your way" if you want to get a set of Pyro Fan frames to wick.

At LABracadabra, we want to give you the tools and skills to play with fire as safely as possible, thus we created the Pyro Makers LAB Sessions, a series of workshops to complement your circus related Flow LAB sessions and courses.

Here are all the activities that help you make your Fire Spinning experience Safe and well equipped.
