Who here has information on the Neon Husky clear staff? Also I want to know if there are any like products. Specifically the information I need is:
Diamater of the staff
Relative weight to a wooden staff
Sturdyness, bendability (like a bamboo staff or a good wooden one?)
Quality of construction
Thanks lots!!

I dont have one, but I did want to buy one.
The diameter cannot be much thicker than one of the led streetlights they put in them. So I would say its about 3/4 of an inch. Also I would have thought that it would be fairly sturdy cosidering that if it did bend, the streetlights inside it would break.
This is only speculation but I hope it helps.

3/4 inch polycarb tubing, heavy with streetlights , a little bendier than a good wooden staff, but pretty stiff overall

yeah mcp will know everything you ask, she can just interrogate her own stick.
I played with a husky this summer and I didn't make friends with it at all
the balance is pants and it rattled disconcertingly (not at all good for contact)
the diameter was reasonably thick, um, about an inch
it's a faff getting all the lights out, on and in again and they are temperamental
but it does look pretty
not half as pretty as an Aerotech though

You should keep a strong boy in your bag to open things and avoid faffs.
On a less (or more) faff related note.
I've heard tell about tapping programs into aerotech staffs.... apparently it can be a bit of a faff. (can you tell i like this word)
Are there other options to the Husky and the Aerotech. I'd love to build one but buying one would be sooo much easier though admitidly less fun.

*is pleased to have introduce faffing to ado-p*
mo-seph is the man to talk to about making such toys
the faff of programming an aerotech turns into downright drama when some backstage fool thinks it's a good idea to thwap it whilst you're doing a quick change
(not me, I just witness suchlike)
kerfuffle is also a good word, but I have no use for it today

once you get used to aerotechs they are no bother at all. honest. except when broken. which happens a lot less now than it used to.
neon huskys are great if you don't drop or punish your staff in any way shape or form.
aerotechs are droppable.

I agree with ROb, once you know the programmes, it is so easy to set up.

there is a third that is rarly talked about!
*deleted*
i cant find ferrel techs site atm, cos im being thick, but you get the idea from thses juggle art catalouge sales,
they are a metal tube at about a inch and some funky light tubes at the end, not long engought for 5ft contact but short contct is nice, and they are pretty much unbreakable from what i hear....
they can also be set or programmed or somethinged to change colour on direction chenge due to merc switchs!
hopw this helps!

well I'm not much of a twirler, as in my original staff experiences have been from kung-fu and well I like to use a 5.5-6 foot staff... also I'm on a kinda tight budget... but the use of this staff is meant to be for stage fighting/martial arts staff form, also I want to use glowsticks (streetlights won't survive stage fighting, even if in a staff)... anyway thanks for all your guys' help!!

I wonder if the glowbug staffs sold here in the online shop would be any good for what you're doing? I've been considering getting a couple for "jedi" play..Nothing hard, just light stuff.
