COMING SOON: The Kasey Venturi Series 2 (The Lyco Slayer)
Since the Series 1 launched back in May, we’ve had a massive amount of messages and emails from performers wanting to know how the Kasey Venturi design actually works. Because the Series 1 is built so differently from traditional gear, it’s sparked a lot of conversation about its architecture and why it delivers such a distinct performance edge. We appreciate the interest, and because of that feedback, we’ve been working on a "maximum output" version. We want to be 100% clear: The Series 2 is not going to replace the Series 1.
The Evolution: Series 1 vs. Series 2
The Kasey Venturi Series 1 was developed to give you elite-level performance in a simple, non-mechanical platform. While other specialized props rely on complex, mechanically-assisted systems that demand an hour of scrubbing and maintenance after every show, the Series 1 is a gravity-fed design. It’s built for the performer who wants high-end, reliable results without the constant technical headache.
The Series 2 is the Heavy Hitter. If the Series 1 is your precision, low-maintenance tool, the Series 2 is for when the performance calls for a true showstopper. It’s an evolution of the craft that pushes beyond all expectations. It’s designed for those moments where you need raw power and absolute dominance on stage. While the Series 1 is the most efficient and reliable prop in a storm, the Series 2 is a heavily scaled-up and modified evolution of that engineering—it is the most powerful, next-gen spectacle on the UK market, period.
The Reality Check
Because the Series 2 is so heavily scaled up, the risks are huge. This is not a prop you can just pick up and wing, and it is absolutely not built for "clock swinging"—that’s when the prop is held straight up above the head and then rapidly swung in a downward arc toward the ground. Some people might get away with that technique using standard retail lycopodium props, but applying it to a high-output, high-mass system like the
Series 2 is just wrong and incredibly dangerous.
If you’re performing barefoot or wearing synthetic costumes—like polyester, nylon, spandex, or cheap petroleum-based fabrics from fast-fashion sites—this technique pretty much guarantees you’ll destroy your costume. More importantly, you’re putting yourself at risk of severe, life-altering burns that are going to land you in the hospital.
There’s no bluffing through a build of this calibre; if you’re using this gear, you must be wearing fire-safe, natural fibre clothing. If you lack the discipline or don't respect how the prop works, you’re going to turn a high-paying gig into a medical emergency. This prop is strictly for seasoned professionals who have extensive experience with special effects and high levels of radiant heat, and who have an absolute commitment to fire safety and awareness.
Getting Your Hands on One
We’re only taking on builds for the Kasey Venturi Series 2 after a technical consultation call. We need to make sure you have the physical conditioning and safety setup to handle high-mass, high-output gear in uncontrolled environments.
You can keep betting your reputation on mass-produced, standard-issue hardware, or you can step up to proper, purpose-built outdoor engineering.
Stay tuned for the official drop. Build it right. Own the stage.
