When they arrived they looked great. They were matte finished, no knot and as invisible as I have ever seen. The loop saver is a nice idea. I couldn't wait to give them a try. A friend called and invited me to meet at a favorite restaurant.
I put two loops on as I always do. At a pause in our conversation I hooked up a fork to the left loop.
I have used Loops forever so I know how much they can and cannot be stressed. The first Loop broke right away. I hooked the fork to the right Loop and 'snap' the same thing happened. When I got home tried the remaining three Loops (you get five). The same problem.
These new Loops look great but the are not as strong as the old Loops. I hope they don't replace the original loops with these so-called improved ones. I am very disappointed! So much for new and improved. Just a way to jack up the price!

Hello Everyone, Yigal Mesika here I want to say thank you for everyone who is supporting my product and sharing how much they enjoy it. I read all of the good and bad comments on the thread and I would like to address a few things. When I purchased the rights from Finn Jon many years ago the price at the time was $15 for 4 Loops. After I bought the rights I spent time researching and developing the most premium quality thread and made the Loops only $10 for a pack of 5. For the last 15 years I have not raised the price even once, needless to say I have also invented and included very strong effects within that $10 price. Loops became very popular because of the inexpensive price, practicality, simplicity, and the powerful effects you can do with them. The new generation took 2 years to develop and I am very proud of the innovations.
This new generation costs me way more to manufacture but I still kept the same price which includes the Loops Saver, high quality Loops, and a 20 minute performance and explanation video. When using this pack correctly each pack can last about a month of usage.
If you still think the price is expensive remember that just two Starbucks coffees are more than $10. I also have developed other alternatives in the art of levitation.
The Spider Pen Pro and the Tarantula may cost more up front but over the lifespan of the product it will save you money. These utilities will give you the ability to perform great levitations and animations with more freedom.
You will also be able to perform more effects than Loops are capable of. For years I have been coming with innovations to provide you with different products so you can choose the ones that suit you and your performing style. I do believe in my products and use them daily.
My team and I believe in them so much that I am offering a 3 month no questions asked guarantee on all of my products. You are welcome to check my website and see for yourself how my products can enhance the level of your magic.
I wish you all success.Yigal Mesika hikeeba New user 37 Posts. Is this 3 month guarantee a new thing? Because last year I bought a Spider Pen Pro, new, from ellusionist. It was broken when it arrived and there was rust on the body. When I contacted your customer service I had to pay $10 for a replacement tip and was told I could not get a new pen body. It never did work correctly. I literally gave it away to someone on another forum to get rid of the headache.
So, consider me hesitant to try the new loops out, despite the guarantee. Banedon New user 74 Posts. I bought a packet of new Loops today.
They seem thinner and less reflective than the older ones - but the matte makes for a darker band around my skin (but I am a tad on the pale side). On the other hand, it looks a little like my natural arm hair just curled funny. It is highly unlikely anyone is going to look that closely at my hands, though - so this observation is not worth much. I like the new packaging and storage. That is actually the big improvement I noticed.
When I was done messing around with a loop I was able to easily put it back on the storage card and slide it back into the packet and hide the packet. If that was all that was different I would be happy. I was able to do the same stuff I did with old loops. I did not push it though. I just did a few things. Moved a spoon. Flipped a half dollar.
Did the move a card cut and then your card pops out thing. Floated the receipt from the magic shop between my hands a bunch of times.
I tried all of these with different hand setups. I was kind of afraid of breaking it, so I do not know if they are more resilient to pressure than the old ones, the same, or less. I walked around with the loop around my wrist.
Used the toilet. Washed my hands. Washed a few pans. Made and drank coffee. The loop was unaffected. There was a tendency to knot up a bit - but old loops did that to me too. I do not know if that is just me mishandling them, an issue with the product, or a working hazard of the style of product.
I did the receipt float in front of a mirror and could not see the loop. I also did the receipt float a bunch of times in front of my webcam - sitting very close and zoomed way in. I have an especially high quality web cam so it picks up details. No flashes on that webcam is a good sign.
The old loops sometimes showed up on my web cam. Perhaps the new matte finish is doing its job.
My pet parrots were preening on my shoulder while I floated the receipt in front of the web cam. They did not seem to care for the trick or notice the loops. When I do stuff with invisible thread they see that and enthusiastically go after it - so maybe they did not notice the loop or just did not care because they were preoccupied.
Further testing is required - but if eagle eyed parrot eyes who see all sorts of spectrum we do not have trouble seeing the loop in very well lit conditions than maybe the new matte is pretty good. Since I just got them today and minimally messed with them I will post if any of this review changes.
I plan on making heavy use of them. Also, I liked the 20 minute video on the site. It was very informative. Nikki78 Elite user I impaled Dracula with 483 Posts. Update after live close up use: This afternoon I tried the standard deck cutting itself and the card jumping out with the loop I used the other day. It worked ok a few times and then it snapped.
I pulled out a new loop which snapped on the first attempt. I used to be able to do this all day long with the old loops.
Tonight I went to dinner with my girlfriend at one of our favorite bars/restaurants. I did a variety of tricks - including some stuff with Loops. I tried the standard fork moving across the table without being touched. This was not a heavy fork but it is a little heavier than the one I tried at home. The loop stretched and snapped. I recovered with a silly excuse and we went on with dinner. I came prepared with a loop on each wrist so later on I asked for a dollar bill.
I will cut out the routine and patter that made all of this natural and get to the meat. It worked fantastic. The bar is well lit for a bar but is still atmosphere lit - which means you can see everything fine but it is like you dimmed the lights a bit.
Better lit than most bars but still dimmed. She had never seen me use a loop before and was floored.
Her first reaction was to swat the bill out of the air, though. Thankfully she did not feel the loop but I had to retrive her fiver from the floor. The waitress saw this and was impressed (I overheard her talking about it to the other stuff when I used the restroom). Worked even under fire of an audient acting in a very unexpected and potentially harmful to the Loop way. The Loop survived unscathed.
My girfriend demanded I do it again. Naturally I refused. She pulled out a 20 and told me that it was a different trick with a larger bill. I'll save the cute back and forth - I did it again. She did not interfere. The table next to us was VERY excited (as were some wait staff who were pretending not to be nearby and watching us like hawks for more magic). Despite requests from the entire 'house' at this point there was no way I was doing it a third time - so instead I did some invisible deck stuff (which killed).
I did manage to make the new matte finish loops reflect at home on my web cam when the sun set. It took some doing but yes, I can see that perhaps under performance stage conditions it might reflect. Someone using it under better test conditions should comment further in that regard.

Overall, I am disappointed that less than 36 hours later 3 of my 5 loops are gone - snapped - by things that the old loops had no trouble with when each one should have lasted a month of use (as advertised). But, they still seem to work for lighter loads. I guess I will have to buy another pack and test further to make sure it was the loops and not me - but without further testing I am unwilling to use them the way I am used to using the old loops in case they really are not as sturdy as this trial suggests. » » » » Loops Improved by Yigal Mesika (18 Likes) Go to page 2.
