Silicone flowers are popular accessories for contact staffs and devil sticks, offering several benefits:

  • Controlled Rotation: Flowers help slow down the rotation speed of contact staffs, making them easier to control for body rolls and other intricate moves.
  • Weight Distribution: By adding weight to the ends of the staff, flowers improve contact balance and maneuverability.
  • Customizable Weight: You can adjust the weight and rotation speed by cutting the flowers to your desired length.
  • Removable: Can be installed and removed without altering or damaging staff.

Fire Performance:

  • Durability: Silicone flowers are heat-resistant, making them ideal for fire performance.
  • Visibility: Black flowers are recommended for fire props to minimize the impact of soot and heat discoloration.

LED Performance:

  • Light Diffusion: Clear silicone flowers allow light to pass through, enhancing the visual effect of LED props.
  • Secure Attachment: Use clear tape or silicone tape to securely attach the flowers to LED props.

Installation Tips:

  • Proper Spacing: Maintain at least 4 inches (100mm) between the wick and the flowers on fire props to prevent heat damage.
  • Tight Wrapping: Wrap the flowers tightly to ensure they stay in place during performance.
  • Optimal Tape: Silicone tape works best because of it’s color choices, heat resistance, and self fusing properties.
  • Recommended Use: Apply one layer of tape underneath flowers, tightly wrap base of flowers over this tape layer, and apply two layers of tape to finish.

Flow toys are props and tools used in flow arts, which is a movement based art-form that involves object manipulation. Flow props are extensions of your body and tools for self expression.

Despite being called “toys”, flow toys are meant for everyone and you will find that a majority of flow artists are actually adults! Contemporary flow arts include many modalities like dance, martial arts, or just “free-flow.”

The best flow toy to start with is the one that you’re most excited to learn. Although some props might be more difficult to learn than others, this differs greatly from one person to another. We found that the more excited you are to learn a specific prop, the more likely you will be to practice and learn quickly.

Stick props like dragon staff, contact staff, or spin staff can be easier for some since its a more static prop that you can hold onto. Rope props like poi and rope dart require more plane control at the beginning but are also much easier to travel with. Others like flow stars and pixel whips have their own kind of movements that don’t really fall into the other two categories we mentioned. But they’re super popular for ravers and festival goers!

We have a feeling you’ll end up owning more than one type of prop though so regardless of what your friend thinks is the best flow toy to start with, just get whatever you’re most excited to learn!

Fire dancing carries some inherent risks, but if you follow all of our fire safety instructions the risks are very avoidable. We recommend feeling super comfortable with a flow toy before lighting it on fire for the first time.

If you’re new to flow arts, we also recommend getting a daytime practice prop (or even LED prop) since you might be dropping your flow toy a lot when you’re first learning. The Kevlar on fire props can deteriorate much more quickly from repetitive drops, so practice props are ideal to keep them safe.

We have fire, LED, and daytime versions of most of our main props. Even if you can only afford one version and end up starting with a fire prop, they can be protected with wick covers. No matter what type you have, we recommend practicing on soft ground like grass to protect them as much as possible.

After you read the fire safety guide linked above and before lighting up you fire tool, please also read through our safety disclaimer.

We ship our products Monday-Friday from Los Angeles, CA, USA. Many of our listed products are ready-to-ship unless we have to assemble them, which can add a day or two to process. That being said, we ship out orders in the order they are placed within 1-2 business days (with some exceptions like holiday seasons). 

Once shipped, we use USPS for orders in the USA and usually UPS for all international orders. Ground shipping in the US usually takes about 3-5 business days from shipping date, while priority shipping can be between 1-3 business days from shipping date. These are estimations and not guarantees as USPS might have delays, but reach out to us if you are looking for more specific time frames!

We can’t promise any specific shipping timeframes for international delivery as customs can cause many unforeseen delays.

Of course! We’re just a text, email, or DM away from being able to answer any question you have. All of our contact details can be found here or you can scroll down to find the buttons in our footer. We’re active on social media too so we are pretty easy to get a hold of!
