Lawrens -

What a simple, beautiful and powerful routine - absolutely gorgeous (I'm giving you a standing ovation as I type!).

Truly an amazing performance - do you have a copy of the original video you could send me, as I love to make DVD's, featuring collections of silent stage performances like this?

Robstanley1,

Thanks for your kind words!

At this time I don't have the original file, as my sister is duplicating it and other routines (palmspining routines with clear acrylic balls, cups and balls, coin magic...) to make...a dvd!

This one we will send to some artistic agency to hopefully get more gigs.

:D

Whatever I write just won't do this justice, it was just so so wounderful to watch. As said before , the best rings I've seen. Loved the slow presentation. Pure class. :shock:

Very nice routine and well performed obviously. The only thing I would change is the split second when you turned your back to the audience near the end of the routine. I don't know much about the rings so I don't know whether it can be done but I'd try to find a way to maybe just slightly block the dirty work with my arm or something similar so I don't have to do the spin thing.

Though that's just me.

Kitaristi0, thanks for your comment. :wink:

You're right, this turning of the body is not good at least on video.
On a more formal setting it works better as I move alot more around.

I have devised another way of linking the 2 single rings which is much more better...sadly it's to late, vid is shooted...:cry:

:D

Amazing!

This is one of the best performances with the rings that I've seen. I thought that your coreography was perfect. I can't wait to see more.
