  • Modular Design: Interchangeable ends for contact fire and dragon staff, providing flexibility for different performance styles.
  • Grip Options: Available with EPDM or silicone grip, ensuring comfort and control for advanced spins and rolls.

The Fusion LED Contact Staff blends cutting-edge technology with top-tier performance, making it the perfect tool for any serious flow artist looking to elevate their craft. Whether you’re performing in low light or need a reliable staff for contact flow, this LED staff provides excellent balance, durability, and stunning visual effects.

Variations

Grip

  • Silicone: a continuous tubing made of high-temperature resistant silicone rubber. This particular tubing is air textured to make it more grippy compared to other silicone tubings. This also helps to reduce loss of traction in moist conditions. It is one of the tackiest and longest lasting grip. Silicone is grippiest when clean and dry. Depending on the environment and person, occasional wipe downs to remove any moisture may be required. It is easier to clean compared to EPDM because you can spray it with water or rubbing alcohol and wipe down.
  • EPDM: a synthetic black rubber grip that is durable, grippy, and padded. In comparison to silicone, it is better at retaining grip in moist conditions and is slightly lighter. This makes it more suitable for consistently sweaty, humid, or dusty conditions. EPDM becomes more grippy with use and ages like a fine wine. It has a slight tendency to leave black residue on skin which can be cleaned with soap and water. This grip is better for those who don’t want to regularly clean their grip. If it does get dirty enough to be problematic, you can use a slightly moist towel to gently wipe down the grip. Do not spray down like silicone tubing.

Material

  • Aluminum 7075: This aluminum is the strongest aluminum alloy commercially available. It’s slightly heavier than carbon fiber and more budget friendly.
  • Carbon Fiber: Carbon fiber’s high strength-to-weight ratio makes it ideal for lightweight, high-performance parts. Lighter than the Aluminum 7075 handle.

Length

Staff length should be about chin length. For a majority of people 1500mm (59″) sits at about chin length and is the most popular size. Refer to our blog How to Choose the Perfect Staff Length.

Flowers

Flowers slow down a staff’s rolling speed and add extra weight to its ends. For contact staffs, this added weight helps the center of the staff stay firmly in contact with the body. The slower rolling speed is especially helpful for learning moves like Angel Rolls and Steves, which roll down the body. However, using flowers comes down to personal preference—some people prefer lighter staffs or faster rolls. The good news is that flowers can be easily removed and reapplied with silicone tape without causing any damage.

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!

Contact staffs are a unique type of flow prop designed for dynamic movements and intricate body rolls. Unlike traditional staffs that are primarily held in the hands, contact staffs are designed to maintain contact with the body, rolling smoothly across the arms, shoulders, back, and neck. They typically should be be sized for chin height. The added end weight allows for better center point balance and stability during rolls. Contact staffs are one of the most popular tools used in both fire and LED performances.

Other kinds of staffs include spin and double staffs. Spin staffs are not as heavily weighted as contact staffs, so they can be spun much more quickly. This is popular for more martial arts styles of movement where contact manipulation isn’t used as much. Double staffs are shorter than spin and contact staffs. Because of two tools being used, it allows for more complex patterns of spinning as well as geometric shapes that can be created.
