Twista Fire Poi

Block and Twista Fire Poi are a more complex version of the Cathedral Fire Poi construction. By having a smaller size wick woven provides a more solid fire head and the multi layers and grooves create a larger surface area for mixing of the fuel and air. This means a more durable Fire Poi Set with stronger Flames. Again like most of our sets we have a big selection of sizes available.

Caring for your Fire Poi

All our Fire Poi sets have KEVLAR® wicks. If you look after the wick it can last for years.

However if you let the fire wicks smoulder by allowing all the fuel to be used up then the KEVLAR® wick will burn away slowly and fall apart.

Fire Poi Covers

Sunlight also degrades and darkens the color of KEVLAR® wick slowly over time. So it is good to have wick covers when using Fire Props during daylight, it also stops you getting your daytime clothes dirty from the residues on the wicks. Many people wrap some tin foil over the wicks and then put some colorful socks over that. We also sell some fluffy covers which can fit over some common KEVLAR® Fire Heads.

Is Fire Poi Wick "100%" Kevlar®?

No, because of how expensive pure KEVLAR® is our wick also contains other aramid fibers and fabric grade fiberglass. (not the kind that itches or stabs you. After all at HoP we work with it all day. We sell many configurations/styles of Fire Heads.

Fire Poi Safety

All our Fire Poi sets come with free online Fire Safety advice and instructional videos. These also get emailed to you soon after completing your order.
