You've seen what the effects look like; both are fairly practical and have pretty good angles (though the appearance might be tough if fully surrounded). The appearing ring is pure sleight of hand, using an ordinary ring. Mr Long teaches all the moves you'll need and goes through the routine quite thoroughly. I have seen more in-depth tutorials on the specific sleights, but these explanations should be plenty for the way the sleights are used here.

The disappearing ring does use a gimmick - but so long as you can get hold of a cheap ring, it should be easy to make. It seems to be the easier of the two effects, much less sleight of hand. Mr Long also teaches a version that doesn't use flash paper, for those situations where fire wouldn't be appropriate.

All in all, it seems well worth the price (especially at cool box price, but even full price would seem worth it). Recommended.

Love Chad Long's magic, and "Ringers" is yet another closeup miracle from him that shows the type of thinking that has made Chad a real champion in the art. These ring tricks are smart and very doable, most of all, it's very impromptu stuff and can be done on the spot. I love the the ring production, it's my kind of magic. And the vanish of the ring is clever as well. The teaching is spot-on and the interview at the end ties a nice bow on top. This is a good little package, that with some practice could be something you do the rest of your life.
I give it 5 Stars * * * * * as to presentation and affordability. Good Job!

This has fast become one of favorite anytime, anywhere tricks! It takes some practice (duh!) but boy is it worth it! Highly recommended for anyone who wears a ring that's easily removed and wants a beautiful bit of impromptu magic!

Being a close-up practitioner, I love this kind of magic. I give this one a double-thumbs up. Takes some practice, but nice illusions and well taught. Highly recommend.

Looks pretty good. You do have to be aware of angles but Mr. Long goes over all the little things. One trick does use a gimmick (which can be picked up for VERY cheap if you don't have one) and one doesn't. Not too limited on ring size but I'll just say small hands and big rings don't go well together. But, you learn a couple of sleights (nothing hard) and a good party trick for about $6. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to try out ring magic. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because it didn't give me a huge WOW factor.

Nice and quick little trick!
Chad explains everything quite well.
I've shown it to a few people and they were quite amazed!
Well done Mr. Long, keep up the good work!

Nice quick effect and good way to introduce a ring. I do Sankey's Devil's Tail and this will be a nice way to begin it with the production of the ring. By itself, it is a nice trick and an interesting handling.

Bellissima e interessantissima routine

Nice trick. I like the way Chad explains things. Took me time to find a ring that I could use. Needs quite a bit of practice but is worthwhile.

I prefer the first phase over the second phase.
It is visual, clever, and quick.

I played around with using a gimmicked ring for the first phase, so I can transition into GT's routine and/or Sankey's routine.
Mostly though, I just do Chad's first phase since I always have a ring on me.
