Directly after the medieval festival in Visby, Salza Fire Gear will go to the Camp Burn Yourself. It is a gathering of fire artists, jugglers, musicians and other creative beings in the Scandinavian organization Eldsjäl.
We will pack our cars with everything needed for a mobile workshop, as well as some international guest teachers squeezed in between the tools and the many rolls of wick.
Orders and questions will be handled from August 23rd, when we are back in the regular world.
Most of the Salza Fire Gear crew and our mobile festival workshop will swim eastwards to the island Gotland for a week long medieval festival. If you are going there please come visit our stall, we'd be happy to meet you and service your old equipment.
This medieval excursion might delay responses times in our high tech office, but we are still working hard here, striving to make you happy.
We are just now on our way back from the European Juggling Convention where we had a really great time, thank you finland for that!
There is a short interview with me that was streamed live from nathan, have a look!
Today we introduced two new products to our line, one being a wooden made levistick for everyone who just wants to practice, and a couple of new wickbags, made to fit isis poi specifically!
We would also like to remind our customers to say hi at this summers festivals! The EJC (European Juggling Convention) in Finland this time, Medeltidsveckan in Visby - Gotland and finaly, our favorite event, CBY (Camp Burn Yourself) in Småland - Sweden!
Our new location is a minute's walk from the subway station at Farsta Strand, just 15 minutes from Stockholm Central by subway.
Kevlar thread is back in stock and at a lower price. The very strong thread is useful for more applications than building fire equipment, it can be used wherever a sturdy seam is needed.
Don't try to rip the thread with your hands, and be careful if using it for flossing your teeth! :)
Samuel And Torbjorn have opened a new storefront, This time not in Sweden or even Europe, but in Sihanoukville, Cambodia!
If you need stuff, help or whatever give us a visit! we're in '''DoneRight' guesthouse on Otres beach. We figured that many of our customers where out traveling anyway so.
Hey,
Our video section isn't working as it should, we'll hopefully have that fixed in a week or so. I figured out I could use my me.com account to host them nicely.
When Thomas visited this summer we went for a filming session in Stockholm.
Me and YouTube aren't best friends, but here's the YouTube link for what we made that night:
And, as I said, the movies will be up again soon.

Thomas ''nevisoul'' Johansson made a short visit in Stockholm, and we sat down over a cup of chailatte, and started talking a bit over what he's been up to lately.
One of our designer friends, Karin Pinner finaly got her site up and running, She and us have designed a couple of really cool things together, like a bruning skirt..
Her company name is Scapula and thats what she does, mostley. Making costumes for artists of any kind, historical clothes and things to wear for people who likes to move around a lot with fire on a stick or a chain.
Her site is in Swedish, but there's a lot of photos so.. ;)
Today we added a "new" pack of batteries. A set of 10 packs is now priced at 50% of the regular price, if bought one by one, we hope this makes life if not easier, then at least a little cheaper for you led spinners out there.
