I think a spinner is ready for fire when they feel confident enough.
If you feel inside you that you are ready for fire, then you are.
There may be one for everyone but what if there is two for three would that mean none for someone or did they start off without one....

One thing that really helped calm me was the "wick seasoning" thing some people suggest (lighting, extinguishing, redunking, new wicks... repeat as necessary). Not because I think it did anything especially exciting for my wicks, but because I then knew exactly what it took to put out merrily burning wicks.

I was just curious... Obviously I am a new kid on the block, but I wanted to know when most people start lighting up? How much should you know, how long should you have been spinning, etc. before you move onto fire?

But I think it's also good to also mention that fire is not an essential, or even particularly important part of poi spinning.
Many people develop tremendous skill and the other benefits of spinning without doing much fire, or even any at all.
Of course fire's OK, if you know what you're doing and are safe; but sometimes there seems to be an implicit assumption that fire is the ultimate point of spinning, that unlit poi are just for 'practice'.
Whereas the reality is that fire is just another variation, it's not compulsory

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potato's.
