The Quick Wick Fire Hoop Wick
The New Quick Wick: Stronger, more durable cable spines. Easier, more economical servicing. Alt-wick options, and the same high-fidelity Quick Wick experience you've come to trust since 2010.
The Quick Wick® turns any hoop into a firehoop. This ultra-light firehoop wick clamps onto any hoop (or any tube, pole, staff, bicycle, etc). The Quick Wick® allows you to change your fire hoop size as your regular hoop size evolves.
Now with removable wicks that won't budge unless you use a wrench, replacements are more economical and sustainable. Keep the trusted and clamp and swap out the wick. Speaking of swapping, get ready for alternative wick options like silicone practice "wicks," rhythmic tambou-ring attachments and more..
Use Quick Wicks® on different hoops, taped or bare, minis & LED hoops. (note: this could void a warranty on an LED hoop) Other ideas: throw some on the end of a staff, a bike, a helmet, a Lyra.. get creative. The paper-thin belt is virtually unnoticeable when hooping and the clamp does not get hot.
- Wick Wrench: for locking the wicks into the clamp
- Nut Driver: even quicker & easier than a flat-head screwdriver

Quick Wick® Sizes
(measured by the Outside Diameter of your tube)
- 5/8" OD (14 - 16 mm)
- 3/4" OD (19 - 20 mm)
- 1.5" OD (38 - 39 mm) * 3/4" QW + 3/4 ext clamp
- 2.3" OD (55 - 56 mm) * 3/4" QW + TWO 3/4 ext clamps
* The 1.5" and 2.3" sizes are achieved by attaching an additional bare clamp (**or two for the 2.3" size) onto a regular Quick Wick's clamp. This extra "extension clamp" increases the clamping range to accommodate larger the diameters for things such as Lyras, Bicycles, Poles, etc..
If you are unsure of the Outside Diameter of your tube (not hoop OD), please measure it. It is important to get the correct size Quick Wick®.
Note: a clamp meant for larger tubing can be clamped down onto thinner tubing, but the "tail" from the belt of the clamp will stick out further and can snag on your clothing or scratch you.
The increments are small, so precision counts. If you can't measure the Diameter of your tubing, measure the circumference using measuring tape or a piece of string.
5/8" Diameter = 1.96" Circumference
3/4" Diameter = 2.35" Circumference
...and so on... Circumference / pi = Diameter
