RoboJet Floss is intended for prolonged operation at a high production rate. Only vertical flow machines allow you to perform entertaining tricks when making cotton candy. The most common technique is forcing the candy sleeve to follow you several feet away from the machine like a “snake” or animated rope.
The “snake” trick requires plenty of space, and note that if there is wind present you will have to have the floss follow you down-wind.
By moving move your hands up and down and changing the angle of the stick, you will find that you can modify the shape of the snake.
Once you have the hang of it, you will be able to step away from the machine, as far as 3 to 5 m (10' to 15', depending on conditions) and the snake will follow you if you continue the proper winding rate.
