Flite by Steve Thompson

Flite by Steve Thompson

Their ring vanishes. Your keys come out of your pocket. And their ring is attached to the keychain. Not resting on it. Not sitting near it. Actually attached, really on there, and they can get microscopically close and pull on it themselves to confirm it.

That is Flite. A ring flight re-engineered from the ground up to do everything every other ring flight could not.

No threads. No clips. No magnets. No safety concerns whatsoever. Flite is built from premium-grade metals that will last tens of thousands of performances under real working conditions, and the load mechanism is so clean and fluid that vanishing the ring and producing it on your keys can happen in one single natural action as you take them out of your pocket.

What makes Flite genuinely exceptional compared to anything else in this category is the freedom it gives you in performance. Because the ring actually ends up attached to the keyring itself rather than dangling from a separate gimmick, you can hand it to the spectator to hold before the ring has even vanished. You can let them pull on it. You can use it as a fully visual linking effect right in front of their eyes, something Tom Elderfield describes as impossible with any other ring flight on the market. You can link multiple rings at once. You can link other borrowed objects too: creator Steve Thompson uses a pair of scissors in his own performances, showing just how far beyond a ring this gimmick can go.

The reset is instant, which means Flite is perfectly designed for restaurant work, walk-around events, and any situation where you are performing the same miracle for table after table all evening. It works surrounded. The spectator can handle the gimmick. And it is always ready in your pocket without any preparation or setup between performances.

Tom Elderfield, with hundreds of Flite performances behind him, teaches the complete system in the included tutorial, covering what makes the gimmick unique, how to use it for maximum impact, and how to build it into visual routines that turn ring flight into something nobody in the room has ever seen before.

"The link is so fast and pure, it can even be used as a visual effect. Which you can't do with other ring flights." Tom Elderfield
