| Those are the one's I've got. They are pretty good, I haven't been disapointed by them at all, although i'm sure you could get better one's if you were a pro, those are good for the price (IMHO). Feel nice to swing aswell. |

Nobody's said how to light them heh, you need to soak them in paraffin OVERNIGHT before your first spin, then for a few mins before each spin after that.
Some people find it helps if just before you put them away, after a hard nights flinging fire in people faces, you give them a quick dip in the paraffin just to keep em sweet!
You ever spun fire before? How long you been spinnin the ol poidiepoi? |

| Should also mention that they take a little while to light, they don't just go straight up in flames (I was expecting that first time, and got a little worried). |

They will go straight up if you spin them continously and don't give the cores a little time to cool.
Will also evaporate a lot of your white spirits  |
