Mystifying Hoop Trick
developed by an unusual alien and stolen by Wim Magwit, this unusual device defies any specific explanation of its operation. Essentially a pair of hoop-shaped frames which were studded with replaceable matter transmitters, the hoop trick seemed to instantly transport anything that passed through one hoop to the other. In this way, Magwit could hold one hoop in his hand and step into it, and re-appear from the other hoop. The exact method of matter transfer is unknown, although the transmitters themselves have to be constantly replaced from burnout.
