Fire Cable Poi
Renegade fire poi are made for professional use, they are lightweight, and constructed from the best materials available. All of the metal hardware is either stainless steel or nickel-plated steel. The swivels and split ring connectors are high quality and selected with performance safety in mind.
You can order your fire poi in several configurations. Each set of fire poi is made to order, so you need to select from the options. If you are a beginner and not sure of the options you want, the default settings are selected with beginners in mind.
Length
We measure the length of the poi from the end the finger loops to the end of the wick. Most people prefer a length that will not touch the ground when spinning. With your hands in a fist at your side and knees slightly bent, the poi wick should be a couple of inches above the ground. You can take this measurement with a piece of string or a set of poi if you have one. Advanced spinners often select different lengths that fit their dance style.
Finger loops
The double finger loop is made so that one finger is inserted into each loop. This is the finger loop style we recommend for beginners. The double finger loop comes with a secondary safety cord to prevent accidental releases of the poi. It is comfortable and easy to use. The single finger loop is made so the loop can be folded over and will synch down on your fingers. This makes for a very secure grip. The faster you spin the tighter the grip pulls on your fingers. Many people prefer this grip as it feels more secure. (Note, when you fold the finger loop it shortens the total length of the poi by one inch) In general most people prefer the grip that they are used to using, both of the grip options are very well made and work well. Advanced spinners select the grips to fit their dance techniques.
Line
The line is the material used to attach the finger loops to the wick; it can be made from chain or cable.
Cable
The cable is stainless steel, with copper connectors. The cable cannot be adjusted or removed from the wick or finger loops. The advantage of cable is that it makes for a very light weight prop and tends not to get tangled if the poi wrap around each other. It is very durable and can be visually inspected to make sure of safety. The down side is the cable needs to be stored in a rigid container when being transported to avoid kinking.
Wick Assembly
Renegade offers five different wick assemblies for fire poi, all made from Renegade Kevlar wick
Large cathedral wick is a folded square using 36 inches wick. The washers and self-locking nut are made of stainless steel. This is the most economical and commonly used wick option. The flame will last about 3-5 minutes. Double cathedral wick is the same as the large cathedral wick but uses 72 inches of wick. It produces a much large flame and burns for a longer time 4-7 minutes.
Blaze Balls are a monkey fist knot tied around a wooden ball and metal eyebolt that is attached to the chain or cable with a swivel. Advantages of Blaze Balls over cathedral are: long burn times, improved longevity, reduction of exposed metal hardware (hot metal), a round shaped flame and clean look. Different sizes (2.5", 3.0" and 3.5") are available which directly relate to your personal preferences for weight, burn time and size of flame during performance. The most common Blaze Ball size used on fire poi sets is the 3" ball.
