Ooooh... so sad, i broke the first one :( when doing a stretching to it

Get the second one, pull it out, get tangled, try to untangle it, and broke again .... noooooo .....
:(

Damn ... that's already about 7$ wasted :(

Got the third one smooth though :)

And after a while found the 1st that i broke, and managed to tie it up again :)

So only lost one ... pretty lucky for a beginner i think :)


Any of you had tips on care handling this thing ?


Thanks ^_^

I suggest you get a spool. It will last you a life time.

Ron Jaxon has this infinity thread. They are really loooong, I don't think anybody can finished using them.

I've seen and use the infinity thread, it'll probably last you several lifetimes. The only difficult part is the stripping and the tying. In terms of quality, its as good as the Messika's.

@bigbadwolf: Thanks for the recommendation :) will check it out

@Magicdow: Thanks for the comparison with the Mesika's , do you happen to know any dealers that carry this ? I can only find at Ning's

@roland: There is a mesika spool? :huh: pardon my ignorance, since i don't know much yet, I will check it too. Mine is the one that already comes in 5 pieces around a card.


Thanks a bunch guyz ^_^

You can get it from Ning at a good price.

Take a look at Mesika Elastics .

This one is already stripped but of course it is much more expensive than infinity.

@Magicdow: Thanks for the link ^_^ I think I will get the Mesika first for starter, until I confirm my interest in loops :)

Thanks alot ^_^

My loops tend to stretch after each use, issit the way i'm stretching them ? or is it possible that some people are using fake loops and adding a "yigal" card to make ppl think its original.

My purchase of loops came in a brown envelope in a card 5 loops. I am not sure how to confirm whether it is really original Mesika's loops as when I look for the online sources I always see it shown with black envelop and a spider web design on it.

also the accompanying 1 page only describes animated fork trick and non other. I have paid $30 for the same. Not sure if I got fooled. Also I broke my first loop very easily when it got entangled.

any advise ?
