The Effect
A borrowed object (finger ring). An everyday object (rubber band).

Two of the strongest components of powerful magical experience combine in this four-phase presentation, whereby a rubber band penetrates on and off a finger ring-one strand at a time!

On this DVD Russ Niedzwiecki (Just Passin' Thru) finally explains his "Pinnacle Ring and Band" routine, revealing all the finesses sure to make this a modern-day classic that you'll immediately add to your performing repertoire. A truly impromptu miracle, you'll use this routine for the rest of your performing days.

FREE BONUS: When you purchase this product from Penguin you'll gain access to a special private discussion forum exclusively for magicians who perform this effect. This is a free feature that can be very helpful in mastering your new magic. Please visit the Penguins Only section for more information.

  Awesome
by A magician from Earth on 07/20/2006 08:44:06     
This is so cool. Spectators freak out. I do this all the time! I would definately recommend it. So why only four stars? It lost a star because Russ is really annoying the way he teaches, though he covers the material well. Also, the miracle finish is horrible. You can' do it with a borrowed ring and it isn't examinable at the end. But except for that, this is a great routine and no magician should not know how to do it.

  Great for Impromptu
by Corbett D. Troyer from Indianapolis, IN on 02/06/2006 08:04:16     
I am not one to write reviews, but felt this effect warranted it. I have been doing Quantum Bandits for awhile with two rubber bands, and was looking for something I could routine with Quantum Bandits. I am also always on the lookout for great impromptu stuff. Pinnacle fits the bill on both accounts. I will admit the DVD was not the best instruction, with some of the angles being difficult to see, but sticking with it for a few days and being persistent will help the moves "come" to you, and the fingers will soon remember what to do. Whether or not you are into rubber bands, this is great impromptu stuff. Ring is borrowed, and a rubber band is just a rubber band. Devote the time to this that it deserves, and you will be ready to "do a trick" at any time.

  Nice Trick
by G Money from San Antonio, TX on 02/26/2005 05:12:50     
This is a pretty good trick. Crazy Man's Handcuffs is a much better trick, at a much better price. You can use the sleight for Crazy Man's Handcuffs with a ring, which is also very effective. I always get an excellent response with Crazy Man's Handcuffs. With Pinnacle, people can usually tell that there is some sort of sleight of hand going on, but they just can't figure it out. Crazy Man's Handcuffs looks like a true miracle. If your into rubber band magic, then this is a good trick to add to your performance. But get Crazy Man's Handcuffs first, if you don't know it already.

  THE BEST
by Anonymous from Wisconsin on 02/13/2005 19:40:05     
I use this almost daily along with some Cray Man's Handcuffs. Highly recommended. I mastered the moves and routine in almost a day. I love it!

  Outstanding!

Wow! I purchased this DVD about a week and a half ago. I didn't actually begin working on the routine until a little less than 24 hours ago and I have darn near mastered the technical aspects of it already. That's no exaggeration either. I would say I have put in maybe 3-4 hours total practice and it is coming as naturally as anything I've done previously. Obviously with anything there is a learning curve, however it doesn't take much to get the knack of this one. I honestly don't know why so many people have stated in their reviews that this routine is so difficult (and please note I am NOT a professional performer). Perhaps these folks just haven't put in much time practicing it yet. As far as the miracle finish is concerned, the routine is just about perfect without it. Further, everything is examinable AND RETURNABLE (i.e., the spectator's ring) afterward if you omit the miracle finish. I personally like the routine better without it. Besides, Russ says this finish should really only be used for special occasions anyway. I happen to agree. Any way you slice it, this is an outstanding routine that I will be using for years to come. If you want a VERY magical looking and impromptu piece of magic to perform (even if this is the only piece of magic you do), you would be hard pressed to find anything that fits the bill as well as this one does. In my humble opinion, it ranks right up there with the Crazy Man's Handcuffs (and we all know what Michael Ammar says about that one!). The price is great too-- about as much as you'd pay for your next movie on DVD at Best Buy. I can't recommend Pinnacle enough. P.S. Who is this Niedzwiecki guy and where has he been? Between this and Just Passin' Thru, he's come up with some fantastic material. Nicely done Russ.
