fire ball
The fire juggling ball is sold individually. Special Offer: For the purchase of three balls, benefit from a carrying bag and a filling pipette to facilitate the installation of your fuel.
This model is an innovation in the world of fire juggling. Designed with a steel spring and an insulating Kevlar coating, this ball allows for secure and impressive handling without the need for gloves.
Fireball Safety Guide :
- Preparing the ball: Use the pipette provided to soak the two wicks located in the center of the ball with deflavored petroleum. This creates a cool (yellow) flame and preserves your wicks.
- Fuel Warning:
Never use gasoline or fuel that is too volatile. Avoid soaking too much fuel and spilling some on the Kevlar protections otherwise you will damage the protective Kevlar sheaths.
- Lighting and Juggling: After soaking the wicks, light them by spreading the ball spiral. Once lit, the ball must continually be in motion otherwise it will burn the protective Kevlar sheath and you will no longer be able to use the balls without gloves. Start juggling immediately and continue until the flames go out. The combustion time is between 3 and 6 minutes. Re-soak the balls after each use.
- Juggling Tips: The balls should always be moving while juggling. Re-soak the strands after each use to preserve them.
- Maintenance of the Wicks: To extend the lifespan of the wicks, soak them after use and store them soaked.
NetJuggler's opinion on the fire ball:
Comparison with other fire accessories: Unlike torches, poi and fire staffs, which require little preparation, the fire ball requires more patience to prepare. However, the effect it produces is particularly impressive, especially in the dark where the flame seems to float without visible support.
Importance of Movement: It is crucial to keep the ball in constant motion. Prolonged immobility can damage the ball and reduce its effectiveness.
Safety and Maintenance Precautions: This ball is not a toy. It requires special attention each time. To protect the tubular Kevlar structure and prevent it from catching on fire or soaking up fuel, roll the ball in a little water before use (without wetting the central wick).
Recommendations for the less careful: If you tend to be less careful with your equipment, it may be better to opt for accessories like torches, which are more forgiving in terms of handling and maintenance.

Fire ball for photographers :
If you are thinking of buying this fire ball for photography, it is a very good idea. A notable advantage is that you don't need gloves to handle it or roll it over your body, which opens up many creative possibilities for your photo projects. However, it is important to keep in mind that the ball must always be moving. If left motionless, it will quickly become damaged, limiting its use to only one or a few sessions.
