Specifically developed for our new Pitts S-1A and soon-to-be- released P-51 kits, the Byro-Drive is also designed for universal adaption. This is achieved by mounting the engine on eccentric brackets which in turn can be rotated to any desired position around the central shaft. The engine itself even pivots on these eccentric brackets, making it possible to position the cylinder head either closer to farther from the central S e - N u / * , shaft.

    Emilia Sonalii Selena Fernandez Alignment: Unprincipled P.C.C.: Fire Walker Occupation: Fire Dancer/Performer, Singer & Violinist Excerpts for Emilia’s journal (translated from Spanish): “We buried papi this morning. It was a simple service. I think he’d have preferred that. When I gave my goodbyes to everyone who attended, I gave them for possibly forever. That thing that killed papi… they call it a “Dar’ota” … I overheard its master say they were “going up to ‘Seattle’ for business” (in English), which is a city in America; way up north, close to Canada. But if that’s where it is going, then so am I. I packed my things before the funeral, and I started heading north as soon as I left. I don’t know why it killed papi, but I will avenge him. I know that vengeance is a sin, but justice is not. Mexico City has always been my home, and I’ve never left my family. The idea of leaving behind my home and my family behind is terrifying.

  • Dust Palace Roving and Installation Price List 2017
    ROVING AND INSTALLATION CIRQUE ENTERTAINMENT HAND BALANCE AND CONTORTION One of our most common performance installations is Hand Balance Contortion. Beautiful and graceful this incredible art is mastered by very few, highly skilled performers. Roving or installation spots are only possible for 30 mins at a time and are priced at $950+gst per performer. ADAGIO AND ACROBATICS Adagio, hand to hand, balance acrobatics and trio acro are all ways to describe the art of balancing people on people. Usually performed as a couple this is the same as hand balance contortion in that it’s only possible for 30 minute stints. Roving or installation can be performed in any style and we’re always happy to incorporate your events theme or branding into the theatrics around the skill. Performers are valued at $950+gst per 30 minute slot. MANIPULATION SKILLS Manipulation skills include; Hula Hoops, Juggling, Cigar boxes, Diabolo, Chin Balancing, Poi Twirling, Plate Spinning and Crystal Ball. As a roving or installation act these are fun and lively, bringing some nice speedy movement to the room. All are priced by the ‘performance hour’ which includes 15 minutes break and range between $400+gst and $700+gst depending on the performer and the skill. Some performers are capable of character work and audience interaction. Working these skills in synchronisation with multiple performers is a super cool look. Most of these skills can be performed with LED props. EQUILIBRISTICS aka balance skills The art of balancing on things takes many long hours of dedication to achieve even the most basic result.
