Flame Thrower

We hired this guy to be in our parade and the audience loved him and even scared a few people. But he was great and would love to have him back next year.

Undecided

I had tried reaching out to Janicki-Traveling Joe multiple times and rec’d no response until he was en route to the location of the event. The excitement was high and everyone was ready for it, and it was a good show BUT it only lasted 20 minutes. It was booked for a full show at 1.5 hours (90 minutes). I had to confirm it by looking at my videos. He started at 711pm and his last trick ended at 732pm. I was not informed that it was going to be cut short or anything like that, and I would never have paid that much for that short of a show. He also never spoke about the birthday boy or even interacted with him at all. (Barely interacted with anyone and was kinda snippy when he did) Come to find out my husband gave him a good tip too before speaking with me about it first. I would have requested some of my money back. His bike caught on fire, he ran his own bike pump over and left items behind) I am not thrilled about it.

I'm sorry to hear I disappointed you. I don't know why your husband gave me a tip if you were upset? I didn't ask for any additional money, he just put it in my hand. Very confusing. Drove 4 hours both directions and brought obstacles to jump the bike on. I'm sorry you were expecting 90 minutes when it clearly says on my profile it's a 30 minute show. Send me your venmo cashapp or PayPal, I'll refund you. I don't want your money if you aren't satisfied.

About

Hello, I'm Joe. I'm an artist and performer from New Haven, CT. I've always loved riding bikes. When I was a teenager, I became an avid mountain biker, and stumbled upon the sport of bicycle trials. I decided to try to learn the techniques involved in the sport like balancing, hopping and spinning the bike, and before long wanted to compete. After years of working up the ranks from beginner to pro, I realized people who wanted to see what I could do everywhere I rode my bike, so the progression towards doing bike stunt performance shows was a natural one.

Upon meeting a fellow performer who specialized in fire spinning, we worked together to develop a fire bike that was strong but light and agile enough to be ridden as a stunt bike. I also took my previous experience in spinning devilsticks and applied it to spinning the devilsticks on fire, and began studying poi spinning both for fun and to round out my skills as a fire performer.

Additional booking notes

30x30' space required for bike stunt show. Fire show requires an outdoor space or a well ventilated, fire marshall approved indoor space.
