it would be an arm span thing

on a more serious note: it's between shoulder length and personal preference... it would be perfect if someone near you already got one and you could try whether it feels comfi and go from there.

keep spinning

Or get one that you vary the length of the span

My first orb is around 30cm long. It's static and I can shorten it by wrapping it around my hands but it's limited to what you can do.

I don't really like the sliding one as you can't control where the fire will be (well, with gravity)

I think the Fyregear ones are probably the most versatile. But you also have to think about how you want your hands....

Another thing to consider: Chain or Wire? I use a wire and it's a bit stiff, so I can't wrap it around my hands (without crazy things happening.)

Longer=More work to isolate (bigger movements) and easier to get behind your head and back. You can have a bigger wick, too!

Shorter=Looks way cool, 'cause your hands are closer. Looks more like liquid dance style, to me. A little more limiting, even for orb...

Hope that helps!
