Light Carbon Fibre
Pro spinners around the world are changing to carbon fibre for its many unique properties including high stiffness, strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance. It's lighter than standard aluminium and that's a good thing. A lighter staff body allows for more control where the weight sits. Directing more weight towards the ends gives a more proportioned weight distribution and an easier balancing experience.

Compact for Travel
Like all Fusion Staffs, they setup in seconds by simply twisting the handle. The key to the system is the highly engineered patented locking mechanism that's simple to use and provides superior strength with no wobble or rattle – That's super important for a balanced flow.
The kit is super compact – packing down to about one-third its size when disassembled. With the solidly machined connector, it has no moving parts and collapses down instantly.
Interchangable
The Fusion system is totally modular and has been designed to fit any 22mm tubing, which means you can swap the ends to glow, fire, contact, or dragon ends.

How to Clean your Fusion Staff
Keep your Fusion parts clean. Dust, dirt or fuel residue can stop your staff from connecting.
Common Issue:
If you experience your staff not locking together and continuously turning as you try to set it up, your parts could be dirty. Dirt, dust or fuel residue stops the Cam Bolt from getting traction and engaging stopping it from screwing down and in turn expand the Rubber Bush's which jam inside the fire ends.
Solution:
Clean the rubber parts and inside the fire ends where these parts sit. Here's how...
What to do if your Fusion Handle is not fitting into your Fusion Ends
The Rubber Bush's on your handle need to be loose (unexpanded) to be able to fit into your Fusion Ends.
Common Issue:
If your handle won't fit into your Fusion Ends the Rubber Bush's are expanded. That is their job when the staff is setup, but not when disassembled.
Solution:
You'll simply need to release the Cam Bolt, turning it anti-clockwise unscrewing it which in turn loosens the Rubber Bush's.
Here's how....
How to Replace Parts on Your Fusion Staff
Your Fusion Staff will not lock if you are missing any part/s.You'll need to remove the Cam Bolt before you can change or replace any parts.
Common Issue:
If your staff isn't locking, check that you have all of your parts on your handle and none are broken. This is what your handle should look like:
Solution:
Replace the parts. You'll need an M2 allen/hex key to remove the grub screw that holds the Cam Bolt in.
Make sure that the parts are placed in the correct order and that you do not overtighten the grub screw that holds the Cam Bolt in or it will inhibit it from freely spinning and working..
How to Remove the Cam Bolt
How to replace the parts after you've removed the Cam Bolt...
How does the Fusion locking mechanism works
The Fusion Collapsible system uses our patented compression lock design. By twisting the handle inside the ends the cam bolt screws in and expands the rubbers which basically jams inside the tube making a super solid and stable connection. This is how we get a wobble free staff.
Understanding how your staff works helps you get the most out of your staff and also avoid any issues.
See how it works here...

Stripped V3 Grub Screw Hole
This video shows you how to create a new threaded grub screw hole to connect your dragon spoke
How to replace wick on a dragon spoke.
You need to be very precise and make sure that you screw into the small aluminium part on the end of the stainless cable.
1. Once you roll the wick on tight (you could hold that on with rubber bands) then use a vice to hold it firmly in place so it doesn't spin or move as you try to drill it.
2. Using a self tapping screw try to keep in the centre of the wick as you begin to drill the screw, start in reverse and then about half way down change the drilling direction to forward.
3. You will be able to feel when you are drilling into the aluminum metal or if you are slipping off.
4. Check that your wick is securely attached by trying to pull it off by hand.
Fire Safety Guide
Here are some of our best tips to get the most out of your fire props as well as how to light up with the safety of yourself and others in mind.
PREPARING YOUR NEW WICKS
It is important to properly prepare the wick before every burn to ensure you are both lighting up safely as well as prolonging the life of the wick as much as possible.
• Pour your fuel in a safe fuel container that will allow you to immerse your wick completely in the fuel.
• Soak the wick in the fuel until it is completely soaked through, approx. 10 mins.
• All successive burns only require a short dip in the fuel before burning. Just enough to get the wick wet.
• Shake out or spin off excess fuel from the wick after dipping and before lighting.
• ALWAYS IGNITE AWAY FROM FUEL CONTAINERS!
• It's a good idea to put the flame out before it naturally runs out as this makes sure only the fuel is burnt and stops the wick itself from burning.
MAINTENANCE & CARE
Following proper maintenance care will prolong the life of your fire toys to get as many burns as possible out of them.
• Never leave the wick smouldering – once the flame has burnt out, completely put out with a damp 100% cotton towel.
• Check your equipment before each use for any damage, to ensure it is safe to use and spin.
• Check for loose screws and tighten if any are loose.
• Replace any broken or damaged parts immediately.
• Protect the wicks when not in use with wick covers (socks work well for this).
• If the wick is frayed, trim before lighting up again.
• To prolong the life of your wicks avoid dropping or hitting the Kevlar wicks onto concrete or hard and abrasive surfaces or objects.
• Treat your items with care and use as intended.
SPIN SAFELY
As much as spinning with fire is heaps of fun, it's just as important to do it safely. These tips and procedures should always be followed, no matter how many times you've lit up before.
FUEL
• We highly recommend our FIRELIGHT FUEL; Itʼs a clean burning, low odour fuel.
• Your fuel container should have a secure lid that will not spill if it is knocked over. Always keep your fuel container stored far away from any flames and away from any fire spinning.
• Your fuel container should be labelled that it contains flammable and dangerous goods, including the name of the fuel.
• Kerosene/Citronella are also options. Each fuel has different properties such as volatility, burning temperature and flashpoint. You can find out these specifications in the chemical's MSDS.
• Store fuel away from children and away from where you are spinning and away from where any fire will be.
FIRE SAFETY EQUIPMENT
• Always have a fire extinguisher and/or a damp 100% cotton towel on hand.
• Fire safety equipment should be kept in close proximity so that easily accessible if needed.
• Your fire safety assistant should be trained how to use these items safely and be in charge of where they are located.
WHAT TO WEAR
• Never wear loose or highly flammable synthetic clothing (natural, tight fitting fabrics are best).
• No dangly items worn.
• Keep long hair tied back.
• Lightly wet your hair if possible before spinning.
• Avoid the use of hairsprays, gels, and other products.
SAFETY ASSISTANT
• Never spin alone. You should have someone else with you that is also comfortable around fire and knows first aid for burns. This person should also be watching your surroundings and if in public, act as the 'crowd control' and make sure your spinning area is big enough.
• Adult supervision and consent is required for persons under 18 years old.
ENVIRONMENT
• Fire spin outdoors only.
• Spin on flat ground that is dry and free of any slip hazards.
• Do not spin in dry bushland or forests as this can cause bush/forest fires.
• Spin away from any obstacles (around and overhead) and be observant to who and what is around you.
• Be responsible for your own and otherʼs personal safety.
• Please respect any local and/or state fire bans and restrictions.
• Obtain any permits if required to spin in public places, varies from county to country.
EQUIPMENT
• Be aware of the props that you are spinning with and its intended use and its limitations
• Remember that Carbon Fibre is heat proof, but not flame proof. Precautions should be taken with this in mind such as keeping the prop moving to control the flame and taking wind direction into consideration to keep the flame away from you and the Carbon Fibre.
• Remember that while Aluminium is flame and heat proof, your hands are not! Aluminium gets very hot where it is close to the flame so you should be careful to only touch the gripped part of the product while spinning to avoid burns.
• Products should only be used for its intended use and misuse of products can result in injuries and damage to your toy.
CONTROL THE FLAME
• Know the nature of fire. Fire will always burn from the bottom up, so when holding fire stationary be intentional with how you are holding it. For example, hold hoops horizontally so the flame does not touch the tubing. Keep poi gently swaying to keep the heat away from your hands. Hold fans upward away from the body or horizontally away from the body.
• Once lit always keep the flame moving, even if slightly, to help control the flame and the heat. Avoid remaining motionless and start spinning and moving the prop as soon as safely possible.
• Be aware of the direction of the wind and how it affects the flame. Usually you would want the wind at your back so that it blows the flame away from your body and not toward you.
TRICKS
• Never light up until you are comfortable, practiced and confident with the prop without fire.
• Take it easy for your first light-up, there's no rush to spin with fire.
• Do not learn or practise new tricks when lit-up.
First Aid
In the case of an accident or burn, it's important to know the steps to take before it happens.

Flute Size Guide
Deep, and larger, flutes should be reserved for those with large hands with quite long or flexible fingers as the sound holes tend to be wider and spaced further away making it quite a stretch, or even impossible, for most hands to reach. These flutes have an incredibly soothing quality though and are very desirable for meditation music. Flutes in the key or E & D are slightly more playable. Flutes in the key of low A or B are the largest of all flutes and also the lowest tone.
