Yeh Im not sure about that, yeh like u said when it hits the carabiner...keep me PM posted on that one.


Surely if your working in a venue with atmosphere then the noise wont be heard?

I must admit ive been looking into the ring flight with some serious thought recently - although im quite prone to doing something similar to Etienne Pradiers version by modifying a Louis Vuitton key wallet - suits my sexy style :P

This happened to me as well I just opened it up and got the cord back out, it's only sealed together with rubber cement. If you buy this I would recommend putting another knot in the cord to stop this happening.

It is a very good ring flight, and I would highly recommend.

Probably not.... Maybe I'm just paranoid, which is why I've modified mine slightly... The tiny tinkling of metal on metal is never a good thing though is it?[/quote]

a friend of mine got this, and I dont like it!

I'll stick with my PEGASUS Ring Flight.....since it has another layer of Deception, which is the Leather Casing

I can plant an idea that their Ring went up my Wallet and Hooked in one of the Clasp, while the Leather Casing is Completely Zipped Close

I love this little device but mine has broken now,

I'll have to pull the case open and as Tony says sort it that way.

What have you used to stick the clasp part back to the reel? and has it held up?

Cheers

I invested in the Joe Porper Ring flight. Its got a hefty price on it... but it is the cleanest and safest ring flight ive come across.

Hope that helps anyone who is considering such a routine.
