Hey..I have been playing around with Jeff Stewert's ring thing for a while, but was looking for a better vanish/load. Without giving anything away it is essentially a reel-less ring to key chain routine (which is quite good and simple I might add) I usually just do a french drop, do the vanish and reach for the keys with the dirty hand to do the load. Anyone have any other vanishes/loads that they think is workable for this piece? thanks!

Clifton ring move is simply the best. If you do Ring Leader, you can end with the clifton move and then go right into the the ring flight. That's what I do. The clifton ring move has been explained in several places including on the Ring Leader video.

As mentioned above the clifton ring move however,if you don't want to add a cord to the routine you have instead of a french drop vanish you could perform a spider vanish which will give the spectator the impression that they saw both hands empty.

Place ring in left hand, close into fist. Put handkerchief over hand, gesture by waving opposite hand around the fist (need I say more?). Think wand spin.

Then finish with "Just IN Case"
