Anyone got it?

Any use?

I don't have it but I watched the video and I can do it with a fr**ch drop and a little brute force on my keyring. I'm not sure how strong an effect it is, the reactions don't seem like anything that couldn't be gotten out of a good card trick.

Its only on pre order, not released til April.

I am looking forward to this, it looks great.

Watch the last few seconds of the demo, then pay particular attention to 1:37. Was that a joke, or a real attempt at subliminal advertising???

Has to be a joke! I remember though when McDonalds got caught using subliminal advertising, how embaressing!

I thought that, but surely it would have been a bit more, "obvious", than that? I mean, it's on dodgy ground, even if it is very easy to see, as it doesn't stay around for long, and isn't obviously layed out as a joke. I hope it is a joke, because it is an offense, and could ruin a career.

Just badly edited.

The 'buy it' flash is deliberate - probably meant to be a few seconds longer and therefore an honest marketing message. A deliberately subliminal message would be an almost undetectable flash. The fact that we've noticed it means it's intentional.

Anyway, enough of that. Looking forward to a detailed review. As a wedding toastmaster this would be great for me. I've struggling to control an urge to buy ..... so I'll log off and come back after a cold shower.

Anyone has it yet?

I have it, but have yet to try it "in the field" as it were. I'll try and give a review once I've used it in my set for a bit.

I have it and it's brilliant. Works nicely for the female magician too. Never used the key-case style ones (with or without reel) as they're a bit more 'blokey' but this is perfectly natural and a very strong piece of magic. I'm really glad I was convinced to give this a go as otherwise I'd be missing out on a fab effect.

I'll leave a full blown review to someone with a bit more time!

I've had my hands on one, and it's alright - a decent, alternative method for handling a ring flight.

It does require more handling than the effect it is replicating, although it also requires far less setup. For a gimmick you can leave on your key chain and use in impromptu situations, it's lovely - but it's not without its compromises.

YER I is has itz brov! has it for long while aint i?

Sorry just thought id have a bash at talking like that guy in the trailer.

Anyho

Yes i have Pro-flite and i must say i never performed a ring flight untill this
iv had the key case versions that have retractible reels ect,
and for me this was always too clumbersome and the reel would get stuck.

Pro-flite on the otherhand is the kind of " damn why didnt i think of that" ideas, nicely made and simple, that word being key 'SIMPLE'
Not to say it wouldnt take pracice as of course everything does to get perfect. I use this all the time at gigs, and it never fails me, like the ad says carry it everywhere just put it away and your reset to go again. The DVD is ok quaility and the teaching is clear and step-by-step nothing is missed out. And with multiple pesentation ideas and real world performaces PLUS a nice ring on rope routine that goes very well combined with the flight also taught its very good.
The only con i can think of right now is that 'doing up' the item can sometimes fail but that is down to me and not the item its self and does not distract fom the effect.

Basically if you want a ring flight that can be carryed everywhere no fail, has a simple no panic method you cant go far wrong with the PRO-FLITE

I hope this review hasnt been too wordy or rambly its my first one you see, hope its ok any questions please PM me.

OVERALL: 9/10
