It was a different time; we expect things to speed along these days, and we are a little more sophisticated. In his day, Billy was a top performer along with Harold Taylor. Billy's ring routine was one of his staple effects, and he performed it throughout his magical career. I was fortunate to know him, and he was always at the end of the phone if I required any advice; the best he told me was, "It's not the method but the effect that matters". So often, I try complex techniques to achieve an outcome when there is a more straightforward method to achieve the same effect. Your audience isn't interested in your clever finger-flinging; they need to be entertained. Guessing this was films in the 70s.
Looks like a perfect mini ramp in the back
Move along. Nothing to see here. The pay-off is so predictable and not worth all the boredom to get to it.
