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.

In my opinion, this is as good as it gets for rubber band magic. Link a borrowed ring on and off of a rubber band, which can also be borrowed, not once but twice. This is extremely visual and has the advantage of utilizing something that is important to the spectator. If you want something that packs small and play big, this is it.

Official B_Magic Review!

Hi. This is your official PenguinMagic reviewer, B_Magic.
Pinnacle Ring and Band is a good resource for Crazy Man's Handcuffs and a totally miraculous way of performing the effect. I give this DVD 3 stars because I found the teaching to be frustrating at times, and some of the effect was just difficult to do (in part because of the poor teaching at times). That said, it is well worth the money invested into a great trick, you just may have to watch the DVD several times to fully understand what is being explained to you. It really is a killer effect though!

Awesome

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
[Verified buyer] 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
[Verified buyer] 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.
and share your thoughts with other magicians!
