Effect

The Wonderful Linking Rings is a classic magic routine. The magician shows several solid metal rings. The rings are separate and can be handled by the audience. With a simple gesture, the rings link together. They can then be unlinked and passed through each other in impossible ways, forming chains and complex patterns before separating again.

The Wonderful Linking Rings set is produced by TCC Magic. It includes eight rings. The rings are lightweight, which makes them easier to handle and manipulate for longer performances. They feature a magnetic locking system. This system allows for smooth and reliable linking and unlinking actions. The set comes with a detailed tutorial by Axel Hecklau. The tutorial teaches the fundamental handling of the rings. It also includes innovative moves, such as the Change of Perspective. The rings are designed for durability and consistent performance.

Information on how difficult it is to perform

The basic linking and unlinking actions are not mechanically difficult due to the magnetic system. The challenge lies in the performance and manipulation. Learning the full routine requires practice to make the movements look natural and magical. The provided tutorial by Axel Hecklau is noted for its quality and detail, which helps with the learning process. Magician Alex Kirk states the rings offer "ease of handling." However, mastering the choreography and presentation of a full linking rings routine takes dedicated practice. It is a physical skill that improves over time.
