Lite-Flite

Name: Lite-Flight by Perry Maynard

Available from: here

Price: £19.99 plus p+p

Examinable: Nothing to really examine, the ball is 'set up' so not really examinable!

Difficulty: It takes practice to get used to the set up. And to make it look magical

Out of 10: 9out of 10. Would have gave it 10 but the ball has to be dismantled to turn off the light.


Effect: Magician draws attention to his shirt pocket, a small bright glowing ball floats out and lands on his hand. It floats from hand to hand and the magician makes a hoop with his hands, it floats through it, dispelling the thiughts of any wires or connections. On command the ball floats up to his mouth. To finish it off it floats into his shirt pocket and he gets his well deserved round of applause.


Comments: I love this effect. The only disadvantage is you have to split the ball open to disconnect the battery, this means it remains lit for the remaining duratin of your performance. It is very unlikely to split the ball open infront of the spectator. Apart from this, I also think the ball is too heavy for the gimmick!

Hope you like this effect as much as I did!

Thanks,
Kevin

I love it too but haven't managed to perform it in front of anyone yet as the thread always seems to break just as I'm about to give it a go. Any suggestions on how i can get over that one? Where do you place the thread - under your watch?

Thanks

No need to apologise!
Looking back I was perhaps a tad harsh, sorry :oops:

Your opinion is valuable! But it's bad practice to give away the 'gimmick'!!!

Cheers! And if I'm harsh again, tell me so!
