What length should I get?
The exact length of a dragon staff is not as critical as many other flow props, but in order to do “inside” moves, it should be about the length from the top of your sternum to the floor. This is long enough to do everything else and feels great. It is shorter than what most people are used to, but there is no fire to keep away from ;) If you are unsure, err on the longer side, you can always cut it down later.
What shaft diameter should I get?
Choose from 19mm and 22mm 1-piece carbon fiber shafts with flowtoys elastomer wrap grip, or the 22mm collapsible carbon fiber "fusion" shafts, by far the best collapsible shaft option on the market. Most people prefer the 22mm shaft for a faster roll. The 19mm rolls more slowly, and you can add your own grip to thicken the shaft and speed up the roll. If you want thick padded grip, but not too fast a roll, you might want 19mm.
Dragon staff & trikon hub design history
The flowtoys trikon dragon hub design is a step in the evolution of the LED dragon staff. Dragon staff as an art form was originally innovated by Hungarian fire spinning and prop making legend, Gora, in 2004.
The spiraled shape of the trikon design was inspired by Mickey Khoury’s “Viper” hubs launched in 2015. Mickey has been supporting the dragon staff community for many years through innovative designs and moves through his company FlowForm in Australia.
The “conical” shape was invented by Sean of flowtoys to add dimensionality, better display the LEDs, create more clearance during use, and enable the staff to stand on its own. The use of flexible 3D printed parts to make a solid and incredibly durable transition between tubes, leashes and other prop components was developed by flowtoys in 2013 and has transformed the industry.

Shaft Length - how to choose

Available in several standard lengths. Custom length available.
Discounted Capsule 2 Remote
We recommend getting a discounted capsule 2 remote, which is super useful for navigating and performing more complex functions that require a lot of button presses, especially for several props at once! Plus it’s fun to hand the remote to someone else, while you’re spinning, so they can VJ your modes.
You have the option of adding a super nifty retractable reel to your capsule remote. The reel features 22" of steel wire and an activated laser cut wooden super f sticker. The capsule remote without the reel already comes with a flowtoys mini-carabiner, so you can easily attach it to a belt loop or your backpack, but the reel gives you some extra security and freedom - like letting new friends VJ with your remote without worrying about it going home with them by accident ;)
