so we all know anything that garrett thomas releases is going to be amazing. If you're not familiar with garrett and you're into magic you should get familiar with his work.
One thing I've seen in reviews on sites about this effect is that it is overpriced let me say something about this. When purchasing an effect there is more attached to the price tag than just the props. Youre paying for the great details from the creator to learn how such a beautiful effect is performed. Also if its a worker that can be performed anytime anywhere to blow minds over and over and over and over again the price tag to me is a steal.
Another thing I want to add is even if you figure out how a trick is done if you don't buy it and just perform it chances are you're going to do it wrong and its going to look nowhere even close to as good as it should.
Learning every little detail from the creator who have performed these effects for years and years in front of audiences is crucial to a solid execution of the effect.
If anyone says anything about the price of this ignore it and just buy it. If you're serious about magic and you want something that's going to be beautiful that you can work anytime anywhere with minimal pocket space this is for you
Its going to take practice but I think all great magic should

If you do magic with rings for "real people" (not just your magic buddies), Banded is a beautiful illusion that appears impossible to laymen. Heck, it looks impossible to me! Just be sure you get the right sizing for your first finger. Too loose is unconvincing, too tight and the moves can be a challenge. Yes, this will take LOTS of practice, but the result is a stunning piece of close up theater you can do anywhere. If you do ring magic, Banded is a wonderful compliment.
