Genesis: In the beginning there was Mick Ayres' award winning RhymeTime.

In 2002, Mick Ayre's won a Linking Ring Award for Mentalism from the International Brotherhood of Magicians for his effect RhymeTime:

At the end (of his wonderful manuscript), Mick wrote: "I feel...

Here Allan Ackerman combines Dai Vernon's Optical Move with Larry Jennings' Rhythm Count to achieve an even more visual deceptive rhythm count variety.

This is a Jack Carpenter variation of Larry Jennings' Rhythm Count.

runtime: 1min 29s

This is a 2-4-4 count and it can be used as replacement wherever a Gemini Count is needed. It is a beautifully flowing and deceptive count. By some accounts, the best card count developed to this date.

An ebook of color based readings.

"I love this book! It has many different styles of color readings. There are many variations here to fit everyone's venue. TC has done his homework on this one, he gets into details on color like no other book. This book is a gem, I love it. Riding The Rainbow contains material that will remain in your arsenal for the rest of your life." - Neal Scrye

"Like a kid in a candy store" is how I felt when I read TC Tahoe's "Riding the Rainbow." It is a delightful book on the subject of readings using color, but it goes much further than that. Going well...

This is a great idea to shift the secret action of the riffle force to a later point in the move to make it look even fairer. (Also part of Move Mastery 3.)

While you give the deck a riffle you shoot the bottom card unseen into your lap. (Also part of Move Mastery 2.)

The purpose of the riffle shuffle stack is to place special cards, say the aces, at special locations in the deck so that during a dealing action those aces end up in a predetermined pile, usually the magicians hand.

For example, if you are dealing a five hand pocker game and you start out with the aces on top, riffle shuffle stacking allows you to place aces at position 5, 10, 15 and 20 from the top. In this video Allan teaches you how to stack two aces.

Right Now is the name of Nefesch's new manuscript, and includes three mentalism effects, that you can do any time anywhere to convince people that you can really read their minds. These are effects you can peform anytime someone asks you: "READ MY MIND RIGHT NOW."

These are the effects included:

HOT (stands for Heads or Tails)
This is a three steps routine, in which you ask your spectator for a coin (any coin) you ask them to flip it in the air and to cath it in their hands, without letting you see it. You ask them to take a look at the coin, to find out if it is face or tails up, you...

From the preface by John Ramsay:

From the foreword:

Ten easy routines with rings and ropes. All the effects are performed with regular props (3 to 5 inch diameter rings, ropes and silks). They are suitable for close-up, walk-around, stage, etc. You may tie several effects together to create a unique routine.

CONTENTS:

• RING AND ROPE MOVE (George Hills): A rope and a ring. The ends and the middle are always in view but the ring penetrates the rope.
• HINDU RING MYSTERY (Eddie Joseph): The perfect follow-up for the previous trick. The ring penetrates the rope and becomes free.
• THE CHEEKY ROPE AND RING TRICK (Aldo Colombini): A ring is threaded on the...

Borrow a finger ring and magically thread it onto a shoelace while both ends are held by two spectators. Just as magical as you have put the ring on the shoelace you take it off.

This effect is also taught on Michael Close Signature Effects.

A 'walk-around' style three-phase magic routine using a handkerchief and borrowed finger ring, with progressing mystery and astonishment.

Use most any pocket kerchief, napkin, scarf, etc. and a simple finger ring. No gimmicks, attachments or duplicates. A truly impromptu presentation using found objects that can segue into other magic effects.

The ring penetrates the cloth material in three different ways of increasing impossibility and visual impact. The observers are drawn in to anticipate magic to occur, and you then exceed those expectations and hopes.

Moderate finger dexterity...

A Linking Rings enhancement module for any set or routine (4"-12"). Can be used in a traditional approach starting with separate rings, or with Reverse Rings and the four linked at the start - or in the middle somewhere.

This can replace the standard Odin Count to show the four rings to be separate, with the added astonishment of penetrating the rope. With Reverse Rings, each ring penetrates both the other rings and the rope.

A set of four metal rings are displayed tied together with a double looped length of cord or ribbon tied in a bow. This cord is untied with a demonstration of the secure binding....

Ring in walnut is an old trick, but here its a new version where a borrowed finger ring disappears and appears in a freely chosen walnut with a twist.

Please note that this video is in Vietnamese. There are some English subtitles, but for the most part you will get the instructions of how to make the gimmick and how to perform with it from the visual contents of the video.

Demo video for the effects you can achieve is below. The gimmick should not be a surprise for anybody knowledgeable in magic. The primary value of this video is to see how you can make the gimmick very easily yourself and various ideas for performing with it.

The removal of a solid ring from the center of a piece of string in a most deceptive manner. Simple to execute, a quick presentation, and can be done surrounded.

There has been much controversy over the creation of this brilliant effect. Harvey Rosenthal, Ray Grismer, among others, claimed to be the inventor. Whoever it was, it stands as a modern-day classic. Brick Tilley teaches the version he has been doing for decades.

This is a wonderfully visual and very simple routine. No gimmicks required. One simple move does the trick.

All you need is a wand, stick or pencil, a piece of rope and a borrowed finger ring. You ask two spectators to assist you. Rope, ring and wand are examined. Then the ring is fairly and openly put on the center of the rope. The magician covers the ring with his hand, each spectator holds with one hand an end of the rope and with the other hand an end of the wand. The ring magically jumps from the rope onto the wand. Voila!

Simple to perform and suitable for the beginner.

Ein Konzept zum Ringflight.

Ringflights gibt es viele, aber nur wenige, die so bestechend einfach und zuverlässig sind. Natürlich habe ich mir ein paar Bedingungen überlegt, die erfüllt sein sollten, wenn ich mir schon die Mühe mache, einen „neuen“ Ringflight zu ersinnen:

1. Keine Ringzieher.
2. Keine Daumenspitze.
3. Das Etui sollte die ganze Zeit über auf dem Tisch liegen können.
4. Die Routine muss im Stand-up Bereich vorführbar sein.
5. Möglichst wenig Reset.
6. Die Technik sollte ohne Taschenarbeit auskommen.
7. Keine Präparationen unter der Kleidung, keine Züge oder Magnete.
8. Ein...
