This looks as good in person as it does on the video from the right angle (directly in front of you and all the way to the left side). Unfortunately, the move makes a loud snap, it doesn’t always appear as cleanly as it does in the promo (Joe even messes it up in the tutorial more than a few times), the “get ready” requires more than moderate misdirection, and your whole body is a bit rigid and awkward before the magic moment. If you are okay with all of that, then buy it (it’s sometimes the norm for rubberband magic), because it’s a smart move with lots of applications. However, I won’t be using it. It could work in the real world (loud place, great audience managemt, great opportunity for misdirection), but for the price, I expect something a little more useable.

the video assumes everyone is a professional rubber band magician and doesn't go into details in many moves

I've went ahead and contacted Joe Rindfleisch about it and he promised to get back to me. 6 months have passed and still no answer from him despite several reminder, his only reply is "give me some time"

concept is interesting, i had purchased almost all of his products but i am never going to buy anything related to Joe Rindfleisch anymore, thanks for the "great" experience Mr Joe

For me i find it very hard to do (the angles) and hard to put in place also, but i have to keep working on it

Everybody mentions it...'angles'. Yes, it's true, you have to watch your angles but so far, I have found two ways to do this. In a parlor' setting, it's the one I start out with and I can take off my coat hang it up and 'engage myself' as needed at that time. This way, I 'find', my first rubber band. Lots of natural movement at that time. So I start with this. I have several effects with one band and when I am finished with that, I hand that one out for examination. While they are checking it out, I simply remove a second rubber band from my wrist get set and go into the two rubber band phase of my routine. You have lots of options at that moment for whatever you do. Once that's done, I magically put them both back on my opposite wrists and using Joe's BH method (available through Penguin)I cause one to vanish and then I 'toss' the last one onto my wrist and accept the applause. I only share that to say, 'routining' is your best 'out' for some of the issues mentioned. In a close up setting I prefer to be standing, so I can 'naturalize' my movement to do what I must for 'prep' and angle presentation. It's almost easier with a small audience. For the price it's a worthwhile method. I have only used 'band through the window' as a spontaneous effect. "Hey check this out". I'm ready before I offer to show them 'something' and it's mind blowing. So for the 'at just right moment' need, that one is really great. "Cool Huh? Here's my card..." Oh, Rubber Bands do matter. Get Joe's. That's just easiest. Stretchier and much longer life than 'office bands'. I will do a practice run or two with brand new ones at home and use those same ones in a performance. I like them just a little broken in. Last thing, I use the Rubber Band holding device to keep the set I am going to use (left and right) and the colors I am using and a few extras as I prepare. From that device the 'band set' goes on my wrists in an instant and I'm ready to go. Enjoy.

cool ideas and method but more of a social media trick imo. its fun to play with. On camera it looks great. in real life not so much. itd probably be a good rubber band opener if you hold your arms that way.

Great trick but be carefull with the angle

The fun part of this video, other videos from Joe and others from Penguin is that I'm amused and amazed while watching myself do rubber band tricks.

This move involves some misdirection and angles, but bands aren't that obvious. I have Rainbow bands and Legend bands from Joe. The Legends come in muted colors. Worth having both.

Get Elastrix. One tiny drop will coat 20 bands. Needed for tricks where bands rub against each other.

RHO will get great reactions!

Anything that Joe brings is golden i have got i think all of them and this one is one of the best simple but it kills specially the rubber band to glass love it just buy it you wont be disappointed

You'll be surprised when you know how it's done! If you are into rubber band magic, this is a must. It's also gives you the opportunity to be creative with it.

I think the angles aren't really an issue as some people mentioned. You'll just need to practice as any other new move.

I'll definitely will be using RHO.
