I love doing this effect. It's very easy to do but is very powerful at the same time. I usually do
two phases from Justin Miller's divorce routine, say that I prefer black rings over silver rings,
and end with the ring changing to black. I like the idea of doing a small routine with the ring
bcause it kinda creates the illusion for the spectator that they're seeing the entire ring.
When it comes to angles, this can't be done completely surrounded. It's an effect for 1-3
people. But just because a trick is angle sensitive doesn't mean it's a bad trick, so don't
completely dismiss this just because of angles. For what the effect is meant for, it's excellent.
This ring does end completely examinable, I disagree with the review above/below me. When
you compare the regular ring to the gimmicked ring side by side, it is slightly different, the
regular ring isn't as shiny as the gimmicked ring. So, they're not 100% identical. But realize this,
that difference is only noticeable when you compare them side by side. Your spectators are never
going to get the chance to compare them side by side, which is the only way to notice the
difference. This basically means that you shouldn't have any problems handing this ring out for
examination. I have handed the ring out for examination several times after purchasing this, and not
a single person has noticed the difference.
Also, know that you don't have to hand the ring out
for examination every time you do this. Similar to the invisible deck, sometimes when you do this,
people may be so impressed that they don't ask to examine the ring.
Overall, this effect is
powerful, easy to do, and ends completely clean. I highly recommend it.
