Way cooler? What are you talking about?! Don't listen to this reviewer in regards to this effect. This effect has many phases that build and are all very strong. I agree that Gregory has an awesome routine. You could even combine elements from each if you chose to. I would agree that Gregory's has some better phases, I have both routines, but Jim's has the better finish with the spectator's ring he's been using the entire time being inside an envelope that the spectator has been holding the entire time. KILLER!!!! The entire routine is AAAAA+++
