Hey all,
I'm new 2 all this i was with a mate the other week and he was fire twirling and i would really like to get into it I'm gunna get about $200 australia 2 spend and was thinkin of geting one fire staff about 1.2m and one of the glowing staffs 2 use when i cant use the fire. is this good first gear?

Hello and
dobz3! That sounds like a solid idea to me but hav you thought about making your own staff? it does work out cheaper if you have the know how.
Any way were are you at? plus tell us so basic stuff about yourself, name, age you know the kinda stuff

Sounds like a good 1st staff to me, and glo staffs are fun (yey for areotech
)staff will last ages, the wicks...varies on how much you drop your staff, but a while, and they're not hard to change. and then my only advice....enjoy your self

Soz about putting it in the wrong spot, I dont think i'll make my own first staff maybe my second one when i feel abit more confident with it.
Cheers for the replies

Why not have a look at some of the Melbourne meet-ups - maybe play with some other people's toys before you make/purchase your own?

Check out that thread for regular Melbourne meet-ups and maybe contact any of the prolific members on it: Tyr, Bender, Stone - they're all awesome individuals and very friendly...
