okay when i watched the video, of course I was very amazed. But the more I think about it, I am not sure if its really that powerful. So I dont know how the hook up for this thing works or how you can release it again on the finger, but I can imagine that reset wouldnt be that easy.

And about the spinning thing, I think this sells the idea to the spectator, that it could "hang" on somewhere. I loved the idea of Morgan Streblers Spun, but some people made me think because they told me after the performance, that the levitation thing wasnt that impressive because the coin was spinning around. The coin bend was of course pretty cool which makes it a good trick in the end. So I ended up to just do a normal coin bend now without the levitation.

So to come back to Tarantuala, wouldnt it be better if the ring just gently floats in the air and then on the spectators hand....By this you could still use the spectators ring which is much more impressive. The ring on the video was too big, so I guess it wasnt her ring anyway.

I guess this thing is just for magicians so intriguing if they dont know the technique behind that (like me...I would love to know....but just so I know it....), but for a spectator it doesnt matter if the ring floats sideways or upways (dont know if this is correct english....) or whatsoever....
So in the end you can, in my opinion, do something better with some maybe more advanced techniques, using only IT (Fearson......) or ITR....
