Pair of Kevlar gloves
Item sold in pairs. By ordering this item once, you will receive a pair of gloves :-)
Pair of Kevlar gloves:
These Kevlar gloves protect hands from heat when juggling with fire balls. Kevlar gloves are the best protection. Be careful not to use cotton gloves which tend to burn. These gloves offer you an excellent compromise between thermal resistance and dexterity.
In addition to being heat resistant, they offer excellent resistance to cuts, tears and abrasion.
Sold in pairs. Size: T8. For medium-sized hands. If you have large hands, these gloves may be too small. For now, our supplier only supplies us with T8. We do not have the possibility of having other sizes :-(.
Tips for using the Kevlar gloves:
With the use of fire balls, it is advisable to slightly dampen your gloves. This will increase their ability to delay heat from reaching your hands. Do not completely wet the gloves, this could have the opposite effect as water acts as a thermal conductor.
NetJuggler's opinion on the Kevlar gloves:
- With Kevlar gloves, you can have good juggling sessions of 1 to 3 minutes with the fire balls that you will find on our website.
- Be careful, however, the gloves do not fully protect from the heat, the temperature of the balls will increase.
- You will need to space the sessions so that the balls have time to cool down between each use.
Let me tell you more about the use of gloves with fire juggling balls. With spiral fire balls like those from the manufacturer Fyrefli, there is no need to use Kevlar gloves. But you can wear them for safety, especially if you are a beginner.
On other models like the Freaks fire balls, you will need Kevlar gloves. Be careful though, the balls must be in motion all the time and long pauses between sessions are necessary for the balls to cool down. If the sessions are closer together, your hands will get hotter and hotter. In a few sessions, you will be forced to stop.
Generally, fire balls are used for a WOW effect in shows in relatively short sessions, unlike torches that can be used for hours session after session. Fire balls are also used for photo or video effects.
Fire balls are not recommended for long juggling sessions.
Outil indispensable pour ce qui est de l'art du feu (balles staffs bolas) offrent un très bon compromis entre la prise en main des balles et la protection thermique.
Pour ceux qui désireraient une protection supérieure contre la chaleur, il vous faudra vous procurer des gants de pompiers mais bon adieu à la sensation des balles a vous de choisir mais ces gants sont idéaux pour le jonglage d'après moi
