The Genuine Toroflux - brought to you by flowtoys

- Welcome to the genuine toroflux - a mesmerizing kinetic sculpture and an interactive "flow toy" that's like a 4th dimensional "slinky" available at: flowtoys.com/props/toroflux
It folds down in a spiral direction to form a ring of rings and with a subtle movement, it pops open into a full torus of interconnected rings, surprising everyone. Comes with a mini-biner, so you can easily clip it to your bag or belt loop and bring it everywhere to share and spread the fun :)

Can we all just take a moment and appreciate the courage it took the man at 1:17 to walk in broad daylight with straight up 1990's sidetails?
Hahalol
Zappa Styles :-)
I got one of these for christmas and it is so amazingly cool
Yes they are! So glad you're enjoying yours :) Have a wonderful new year!
I love the little girl in the pink! she is havin a blast
Plz somebody help...
is the guy at 1:12 drinking straight Hershey's Chocolate Syrup??
Yes
I was flowing with mine like that and felt like I was missing something, def getting a ball
Mine just arrived today in the mail and I haven't been able to put it down! Took it to work and people were having the most incredible reactions to it, especially when I passed it on to them! It's like a Slinky but for adults. (And older kids too!)
That sure looks fun and magical!
We just got one of these at FunSpot Arcade in Laconia NH as a prize from winning tickets, super cool, never seen one before
Took this to a fire twirl/drum circle last night, it was amazing. People kept watching me play with it in the dance circle, so I'd grab their hands and pass it on. The look on their faces! Everyone was delighted.
Just picked one up today and have been playing with it for a few hours. \When incorporating various isolations and flourishes it has potential to be a stand alone performance piece.
just got mine in. i love it
just got mine from colossal con
its awesome!
Just ordered mine can't wait to bring it to some festivals!!! Do you know how well they reflect light in club/rave settings with lazers and strobe effects?
i cant wait to actually use one of these
I love these!!! :D Hooked the first time I tried it just last week! :D
this looks like it would feel cool and possibly trigger ASMR for me... aside from being something addictively fun to mess with since it pops open and closed like that.
check out the video and the tips on the bag and have fun with it! it's an interesting shape and beautiful sculpture - you can use it as decoration. it's kinetic and interactive - you can roll it up and down your arm or along a cord - it makes a really sweet looking "metallic soap bubble" as it rolls down a cord. enjoy!
@4B6174 - we're not sure exactly and it's our friend's Isaac's, but it's quite light. we'll be putting up a lightweight chrome contact ball on our site soon.
Is this easy to get tangled up? If it is how hard is it to get untangled?
I got one for festies and love it. I bring my poi and toroflux to every event
doesn't it get boring after 2 minutes?
thats very interesting and unique!.
I bought one of these with the money I saved up and it was great
So glad you're enoying yours Ayan :)
@CizreK - everything is a novelty until one figures out how to do more with it. this is a really elegant sculpture made with a single strand of metal - the physics of how it's made alone makes it a great design and more than a novelty.
WOW that looks like alot of social fun! I bet that would be great to take to dance parties
So cool
Okay i dont know what to do with this ring before watching this video xD
Thank a lot
Prisna's about to POP! Congrats you two =)
-Gerald
that was a party in Oakland - very high hipster index ;)
what size is the ball used so i can do that with mine ?
Hi Eloise - that's a 100mm contact sphere - enjoy!
DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE I CAN GET THIS SONG O_____O?!?!?!
it's "Buford bombed the bass" by our friend Outersect - it's in the credits :)
@nerubionor - it's called a toroflux - the name of the video - you can get it on the flowtoys (dot) com website
what's the title of this song??
@raspyni - we can't take credit for creating the toroflux. it was designed by a european kinetic sculpter. we just re-introduced it as an interactive toy and made it more available to the world!
@jitpunkia - isaac ... it's in the credits :)
This would be an amazing prop to bellydance with!
it is one strand of stainless steel that's interwoven - it's actually impossible to get tangled :)
@CizreK - we don't make it ... it's one of the few things that we offer that we don't make, because it's just so beautifully designed. it's made by just one person/family in the world .. they're from germany and make really trippy scultures and mobiles. they can make ones of any size, though hoop sized ones are about 1000 euros!
This is what we have decided to do to save my friends life. It shall reunite her with the representations of her personalities.
Eu amo Nimbus!
oakland! ;)
I dunno how it works, but this guy just looks like the kind of guy that would stand in the middle of a public park and play with poi ribbons 😂🤷♂️
where I buy one of those
hi Cassio - you can buy a genuine toroflux from our website here - www.flowtoys.com/toroflux/toroflux ... hope you love yours!

I feel like this would pull alot on my arm hair......:(
Not sure if there's an equal trade-off. Pain for fun?
+CodaJSUN Ive got a hairy friend, he did just fine. You should too. they are great.
I have one and don't worry it doesnt
Yeah it's cool, but can you make an artificial black hole with it?
Josh Patterson ahaaaaaa I see what you did there. clever.
I feel like this would pull out all of my arm hair.
it doesnt
it appears to be what he wants you to think :)
Mine doesn’t work anymore
Hi Alex,
So sorry for our delayed response! It sounds like you're having trouble with your toroflux and we'd love to get you sorted out ASAP.
Please email us directly at support@flowtoys.com with a description of what's going on and we'll go from there. If you can, please send us a photo of the 'flowtoys' etched into the toroflux ring so we can confirm you have an authentic toroflux as there are many counterfeits out in the world.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
What is the name of the music.
Darude - Sandstorm
he is correct
Outersect - Buford Bombed the Bass
it flows on you?
Juana M innuendo
Juana M bekfest
okkkk
you should be ashamed of yourself
sometimes if theres only a little syrup left people fill it up with milk and shake it
@elixer6x6x6 - we actually have the balls, but haven't gotten around to putting them on the site. If you'd like one, they are $15, you can email us at info@flowtoys.com and we'll tell you how to order one. best!
@flowtoys It's made in Germany?
Thats funny! I can't find a way to buy it in Germany but in the UK?
It's really pretty. I wonder what people will do with it!^^
Buford Bombed the Bass (Fishing with Grenades Mix) - by Outersect
thats the song ^__^
我買了6個,拿給國小學生玩簡直是玩瘋了
JOAQUIN MILLER PARK!
@xxxStitchxShadowsxxx niceeeeee
The amount of hipsters in this video IS TOO DAMN HIGH!!!
Love how many people have such a good time with this little toy!! I play with one a lot. It's my flowart. Follow me on IG!! @farfallaflows
1:12
In the UK we can get these for just £1
At this point, you can get counterfeits in the US for $1 as well. When they first came out, they were all handmade, and then made in small batches. Now it's been completely ripped off. The cheap ones aren't 100% stainless steel, often don't roll properly and sometimes rust.
you can't get anything for £1 if you buy it from the china nock off areas.
What's with the bearded dude with the pig-tails...
Its a fushigi
This takes all of the skill out of flow toys. Yes it's a really amazing invention and toy but I might laugh if this becomes a new standard for flow art.
This being said I think it would be very cool to combine it with another form of flow art but simply alone it requires no effort.
Heather Vassar Hi Heather - It is definitely not a high skill toy, but there are many people who are not comfortable moving with a prop and the toroflux opens them up to the possibilities. It's interactive and fun and feels great. We've also had several uplifting accounts of people using it for physical therapy after accidents, helping them take steps towards greater mobility. There are quite a few really innovative toroflux movers - we look forward to putting out a video this year!
I have some
ive got flow rings
+pidgenman videos - Unfortunately flow rings are counterfeits. The original toroflux was invented by Valett from Germany. We worked with the Valett family and got the rights to reproduce and share the toroflux with the world. Hope you choose to support the genuine toroflux in the future!
+pidgenman videos sorry I didn't know that, I got them before I looked at this video. Plus I got them at a market soooo. can we hug it out
+pidgenman videos - no worries, you couldn't have known. Do recommend that genuine toroflux when you get the chance. Have a terrific week!
99 cent stor had boxes of them ..
Those are all counterfeits.
@@flowtoys are they all not mde in china i mean the do the exact same thing ......i had no clue about them till i saw them there so the original ones are manufctured were ? s the material different ?
@@aaam.7585 The originals were made in small batches in Germany. We got the rights to produce and distribute them from the inventor. Our factory and our company does a lot of QC to ensure the torofluxes roll properly and are of good quality. The counterfeits are of lower quality, and some of them get rusty.
took 8 years to get to dollar stores
Unfortunately it went the way of the fidget spinner this year :( It's definitely hurt us and many of the counterfeits are shoddy.
circular coiled spring. WOOOOOOW. no. not really.
2:42 les poils sous les bras de la meuf
I found it on a site in europe. www_dot_ravelife_dot_eu
god that music is so annoying
Omfg I know right
SarniaMods it's all opinion. I'm sure this is more of a commodity in Europe where it looks this was created and filmed.
God, Sarnia's annoying af too
I bet they break so easily, like a cheap slinky
+Steve Smith - Hi Steve - they're actually quite durable and if a genuine toroflux breaks, we have a lifetime warranty. There are counterfeits out there that break - those don't have any warranty, though people do try and send them into us!
I've had one for a few months and hasn't broken so far.
Oh really? Don't use it then. Why does everyone feel the need to look at something some people think are cool and say "yeah thats lame". Take your negativity to someone that cares.
The song ruined the appeal for me. Glad it wasn’t dubstep tho. Cool toy
I'm like better and I'm a youtuber
This is for hippies. I'll pass.
Nathan Voshell that’s just rude
