A contact variant of our popular braided staff. An intricate Kevlar wick and a solid wood-filled core allows you to perform advanced contact techniques with spectacular effect. A hefty weight gives it a solid feel when rolling it on you body, while long length makes it very stable and spectacular while spinning.

The heart of Szyszko is an exceptional weave of 5.4 m (!) of 13 mm rope. This amount and type of braiding allows storing large amounts of fuel, and what comes with that, achieving bigger flame that last longer than typical staffs do. 
Special weave exposes a larger area to air, which results in a bigger flame. Flame is enormous, visible from afar and felt closely. The wicks are devoided of unnecessary metal elements that may be dangerous.

Do not leave the equipment burning for too long. When you see a blue flame - it is a sign that the wick is being consumed by the fire. It should be put out immediately (and in fact, it should have been put out a while ago). The best way to do this is to smother the flame with a fire blanket. After each extinguishing, soak the Kevlar in the same oil that was used for burning. Do not set fire to the wick right away, wait for it to cool down first. All above are crucial means of making your  fire equipment last. Lastly, to keep your equipment working as long as possible, use alcohol-free paraffin oil as fuel.

Attention! This product is vary dangerous, it can cause  serious burns and bodily injuries! Due to the possibility of burns, it should only be used by people experienced in fire dancing techniques!
