These fire rope dart leashes are designed specifically for fire spinners who want a safe and strong tether. They are available in two high performance rope options: Technora and Dyneema.
Both materials are widely used in demanding industrial and aerospace applications because of their exceptional strength and durability. They offer extremely high tensile strength with very low stretch, giving you precise control during wraps, tosses, and technical rope dart movement.
Technora Rope Dart Leash
Technora is a high temperature resistant aramid fiber known for extreme strength and chemical resistance. It has even been used in aerospace applications such as suspending NASA’s Mars rover Opportunity from its parachute during descent.
This makes Technora an excellent material for fire spinning. Unlike most synthetic ropes, Technora does not melt and can withstand very high temperatures. Because the entire leash is made from Technora, it is generally the more forgiving option if the rope becomes tangled while spinning.
For this reason Technora is often the preferred option for beginners or anyone who wants a low maintenance fire rope dart leash.
Dyneema Rope Dart Leash
Dyneema is an ultra high molecular weight polyethylene fiber that is incredibly strong while remaining extremely lightweight. On a weight for weight basis it can be up to fifteen times stronger than steel. It is commonly used in racing, high performance rigging, and other applications where maximum strength with minimal weight is required.
Dyneema rope has a relatively low melting point compared to Technora. Because of this, our Dyneema rope dart leashes include a Technora lead section between the rope and the hardware that attaches to the fire dart head. This heat resistant section protects the Dyneema rope from direct exposure to flame.
If a Dyneema leash becomes tangled while spinning fire, the rope can potentially melt. When this happens it can create small hardened plastic beads along the rope that make it uncomfortable to flow with. For this reason Dyneema tends to work best for spinners who are comfortable controlling their dart and avoiding tangles during fire spinning.
Some performers prefer Dyneema because it can feel smoother on the skin compared to Technora ropes. However, newer Technora lines have improved a lot in this regard, so the choice often comes down to personal preference.
The Dyneema rope we use is not coated. Some Dyneema ropes on the market include a coating that must be broken in before the rope feels comfortable to spin with. Our uncoated Dyneema comes ready to use right away.
Leash Design
Each leash measures approximately 10.5 feet and can easily be shortened by tying loops near the handle end to match your preferred rope dart length. A swivel at the end allows you to attach your rope dart head using a quick link while preventing the rope from twisting during spins.
- Approximate leash length: 10.5 ft
- Length adjustable by tying loops at the handle end
- Swivel connection to reduce rope twisting
- Includes quick link for attaching rope dart heads
If you want the most heat resistant and beginner friendly option, Technora is a great choice. If you prefer a very lightweight leash with a smooth feel and are comfortable fire spinning, Dyneema can also be an excellent option.
