Have you guys seen this critter?
http://www.vernetmagic.com/index.php?opt......emid=109

I'm a sucker for floating ball routines (I blame Galina) I still love the Zombie, and so on. This one looks really great to me but that ball is just horrid looking. Does anyone have any knowledge of the effect that maybe an alternate ball could be substituted? I would assume so I just was wondering what you guys (gals) though.

I've had "Belle" for at least 25 years. It is a large Vernet Multiplying ball. Same finish. I dismanteld it for use as an ending to multiplying balls. I also have Astrosphere. I think that ball is worse as it has a "seam" all around it that is extremely visible.

An alternate ball could be used, but why buy the Vernet model, just by the Astrosphere model on the market. Same trick. Not any ball can be used.

Terry,
What would you say is the degree of difficulty to learn the BELLE DE NUIT.
I'm pretty good with the Zombie ball but this is much different.
Thanks

Not hard to pull off other than "choreography." It does take a quick setup. Not for close up.

My advice would be to contact the dealer you purchased the unit from if they are a reputable dealer they should be able to help.

I was under the impression that this came with a supply of the special T. If the video instructions does not give you the information, then you are on your own and just start testing the hundreds of T available.

I have this on my to buy list, sorry to hear your situation.

Thanks Bill. I was hoping to avoid the testing part. There are so many peps here and figured I could avoid it. Lol. I know I am not the only one to have this kind of question, but hey, time to test. Lol

I had Astrosphere years ago and hated it. Every time I put it away the IT got tangled, it didn't matter how I stored it, always got tangled up, I gave it up as a bad job in the end.
