Finn Jon

On our stage at:

FISM Italy 2015

Norwegian magician Finn Jon is a legend of world magic, regarded as the father of modern magical levitation. His professional act is spellbinding: his floating ball routine is unsurpassed for sheer elegance, and his animated snake-like necktie routine is as original as it is mystifying.

He discovered Elastic Invisible Thread and pioneered Thread Loops: no one knows more about thread work. His inventions include Esoteric, Floating Silver Stick, Bolt of Lightning, Multiplying Tennis Balls, Roughing Stick and Perfect Vanish. He has toured the world with his act, in iconic venues such as Raymond's Revue Bar and the Savoy in London and the Crazy Horse in Paris. It was in London that he met Ken Brooke, who first marketed many of his creations and wrote that Finn knew more about threads than any man he had ever met. The Academy of Magical Arts in Hollywood awarded him a Creative Fellowship.

He was our guest at the FISM World Championship of Magic in Rimini 2015.
