Encyclopedia of Brooms
written by Sayan Sanyal
This book is dedicated to Keith Silvester. It deals with the detailed discussion of Magical Brooms. This book is a mirror of my continuous research work on broom studies. Although many informations are untrackable in the lost pages of old books and manuscripts, this book will try to shed some light of knowledge with the help of my research work. As a matter of fact, further research will add many more chapters I presume. If you are daring and into flying, this is for you. If you are just curious about broom history and current broom ratings and all, these are discussed here too.

Firebolt
Chapter 38
Randolph Spudmore was the main producer of Firebolt.
A streamlined superfine handle of ash, (OR ebony) treated with a diamond-hard polish and hand-numbered with its own golden registration number. Each individually selected birch twig in the broomtail has been honed to aerodynamic perfection, giving the Firebolt unsurpassable balance and pinpoint precision. The firebolt has an acceleration of 150 miles an hour in ten seconds and incorporates an unbreakable Braking Charm.
Birch twigs offer more "oomph" when ascending, while hazel provides more precision in turning.
Superb balance and precision.
Hovers at reasonable mounting height when let go.
Goblin-made ironwork provides power, stability, and a non-slip foot grip.
The Firebolt is a world-class broomstick. It was the fastest at the time of its production, and was released in 1993. In time, the Firebolt broomstick was used by the Bulgarian and Irish International Quidditch Teams. The teams played on Firebolts during the 1994 Quidditch World Cup.
It continues to be made in relatively small quantities, partly because the goblin workers involved in the patented ironwork are prone to strikes and walkouts at the smallest provocation.
Irish International side's just put in an order for seven of these beauties! And they're favourites for the World Cup!
The Firebolt was first developed by Randolph Spudmore around 1993, at a time when brooms made by the Nimbus Racing Broom Company dominated the market. Twelve months after its release, the Firebolt was the highest-selling racing broom of that time, beating out the Nimbus 2000 and 2001.
The Firebolt was used by both the Irish and Bulgarian teams during the 1994 Quidditch World Cup.
