Diamond Jim Tyler teaches his award-winning borrowed Ring & String routine, step by step, with some thought-provoking nuances. The audience witnesses a spectator's ring penetrate and vanish from a leather lace time and again.

This has been a feature of DJ's act since 1986 and used in thousands of performances and hundreds of lectures all over the world. This is a visually stunning routine that transcends the language barrier.

Dan Fleshman and Gregory Wilson, who are experts on the subject, say it is one of the best routines they have ever seen. Unlike most ring and string routines that become predictable this one ends strong with an effect that DJ likes to call COLLATERAL:

The magician removes his ring and asks to borrow a spectator's ring. The magician places his own personal ring into a small coin envelope and asks the ring-less spectator to place it into their pocket as collateral. After performing DJ's Ring & String routine or any borrowed ring effect- their ring is made to vanish! The spectator hands over the envelope only to discover that their own ring is inside! Includes two leather laces and the other necessary props.

Running Time Approximately: 45min

I'm in agreement with the other reviews that Greg Wilson's Ring Leader is a must-have in your arsenal if you're the least bit dedicated to improptu ring & string close-up, but I believe you can never go wrong by watching another professional's take on a classic and I feel Diamond Jim Tyler delivers in his own right. Wilson's style is very BANG-BANG-BANG where Tyler's is a bit more laid back as he shows you how to lead your audience down the garden path before blindsiding them over and over again. My only crit is that the so-called gimmicks that come with the DVD are common items you can buy at any fabric or craft supply store for a couple bucks... nevertheless this is a fun DVD and worth the price for a startup and a complete package, but don't forget Greg Wilson later...

Seeing Diamond Jim do his ring and string routine in full circle is just a treat.
In this DVD package, you are given 2 envelopes (ungimmicked) for the Collateral effect and 2 leather ropes for the Ring and String Routine.
The DVD teaches the Ring and String Routine, and the Collateral effect.
Will I perform Diamond Jim's whole routine? No. Will I be taking bits and pieces of his routine? Yes. The Collateral effect is a great idea that I will use.
Highly recommended IF you don't have a solid Ring & String routine yet.

I can't believe there is a reviewer who left ONE STAR for this!!!
That's just a very petty thing to go just because you enjoy another magician's routine. Anyway, I have this and it's great. Comes with all the props except for the ring. You can pick this up very quickly. I never did rope or string magic and picked it up in one day. Each phase is very strong and builds. The ending is just awesome as the spectators ring that was used the entire time is now in the envelope they have been holding the entire time. It's a worker too, instant reset. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Oh and CRYSTAL CLEAR TEACHING.

Highly Underrated Report this review

The first magician I ever saw perform this classic effect was veteran professional magician Diamond Jim Tyler in a video clip shot in the Close-Up Gallery at the Magic 🪄 Castle back in the late 90s. I was very heavily inspired and immediately purchased his manuscript and book entitled Pockets Full of Miracles (which truly is). He quickly became one of my favorite magicians needless to say. What I loved the most is Jim’s light hearted approach and presentation, the modularity of the phases and the simplicity in plot. It has remained a main staple in my close-up repertoire ever since. Collateral takes his award winning routine to a new level by creating a paradox in time in the minds of the spectators.

This trick is just very good. A good ring on string routine which has good phases but there will be some phases you wont do becuase of how corny it is. Another negative has to do with the fact that Diamond at times goes over to fast in the dvd. He should have slowed down but whatever. But overall good trick to have and its easy to do and it blows people away.

Jim Tyler has shared a very practical and well-taught effect. The DVD is clearly presented and all the moves he teaches are natural and easy to learn. The beauty of this routine is that it has many phases which build as you go.
