So im working on my finger magic. What you guys use to vanish a ring. Just want to know what other people commonly use.
Pls dont say classic palm. :D
 
I like to use either the classic put and take or a move I like to call " hold my wrist".
Not sure what the move is actually called I just learned it from watching a lot of Andrew Mayne. If someone does know the name can you leave it below?
 
Almost any sleight you can use to vanish a coin can be used to vanish a ring as well!

For ring Specific Magic I suggest you check out the following effects for possible inspiration:

-Divorce by Justin Miller
-Reflex by Patrick Kun
-Curcuit by Zachary Heath
-Bandwidth by Gregory Wilson
-Ring Thing by Garrett Thomas
-Ninja Plus by Matthew Garrett
-Odyssey by Calen Morelli
-D Rings by De'Vo

Just to start :)

Thanks guys for the suggestion. The reason i want to know a move is because i want to use it in one of the phase in divorce. In the last phase. Im wondering if there is a subsitute on the move ' im gonna put ring on my pocket'
(Im practicing for that. But my hands is just sweaty when performing)

I hope i did not reveal any thing

Kyle Marlett uses an updated hanky vanish it is really pretty cool. You place the ring in a napkin. They can feel the ring, then you tear the napkin up and the ring has vanished. It does require a set up but it's easy to do. It can be learned a his At the Table Lecture.

Garret Thomas has a move for this, it feels like a thimble move. I forget the name, slow motion Ring Thing or something. I think it's taught on his Ring Thing DVD.

In a tabled environment, you can lap a ring just like a coin. You can build a full routine around the ring, without it actually being there. Just make sure you justify putting the ring on the table, and put in layers.
