I see thank you for letting me know.

I too love this effect, I have strayed away from floating things, but when you do it for just a brief moment, they don't know what to make of it. My effect works a little bit like this. I borrow the ring and get it where I need it to be. Then I say that it is really hard to balance the ring on my thumb. I balance it for a bit then I say if I can hold the air around it, it might just( THEN I LET GO AND IT FLOATS FOR ABOUT TWO SECONDS) Then I let if fall onto my right hand. The way I do it which is not that hard, they can get the ring off of my outstretched right palm. That really floors them.

Thanks for all the reply's, and links to other similar effects.
Marcus, I will probably look into the effect that you mentioned soon, it sounds interesting!

Dorian, no problem, hope you have a lot of fun with the effect. As I mentioned earlier I'm a little scared of IT as well, but loops are the way to go.

Yes definitely look into Terry Lunceford's stuff. I've seen him do his floating finger ring and ring routine at the Magic Castle and get gasps from the audience. Cheers,
