Chinese Linking Rings

[@senseistrange]

Yes a great observation! This is mine routine I developed. I started with McBride's quicksilver rings years ago - then it has continually evolved as I discovered and invented.

[@senseistrange]

Just fall in love with your rings and practice practice. walk in peace, Sensei Strange

[@TyYann]

Beautiful. I Love the "butterfly flapping its wings" and all the moves around your arms. And everything is soooo smooth. 5 stars!

[@AoiMitsuko]

... ...... ......... just... flawless... that was just superb the music, the background, the outfit, the whole performance... mind-blowing and just absolutely amazing

[@sixstringplunker]

I agree. Linking rings was a kids trick to me until recently. I cannot believe the artistry here. I originally started watching the first part of this video with my own rings in hand trying to learn your flued moves but then stopped just to watch as you turn this from a simple trick into an amazing masterpiece of skill and beauty!

[@BillyVatcher]

WOW... I think this is the most beautiful and hypnotizing linking ring routine I have ever seen! I have to see it again!

[@FireSandra]

Pure Poetry! You've inspired me. Much love, SaFire of Hoop City

[@danielberry3932]

Very beautiful, and fluid routine. Excellent choice of music, and you're in sync with it too.

[@carlmccumber]

its been a few years since i first seen this and it is still the best routine i have seen in a long time.

[@senseistrange]

Quite a compliment from a master magician! I am just a humble student of the art following your talented footsteps!

[@oberkorn13]

The pleasure was all mine. You can have the distinction of really fueling my interest in contact juggling. I'm glad I found your videos and have since subscribed and rated. I plan to keep in touch. Thank you!

[@oberkorn13]

Thank you for posting this video. Very nice presentation all around. I've enjoyed all of your videos, especially the cj videos. Again, thank you!

[@senseistrange]

You are kind - thank you sir. I watched your thimble work again...stunning.

[@senseistrange]

Thank you so much for your kind words. Wait a month or 2 till my rings version 2008 hits the web!

[@Yitohr]

I absolutely loved that. Fantastic.

[@javimirage]

Trés jolie et poètique présentation, excellente technique, figures impeccables belle maitrise, Good Magic linking rings .Bravo for you performer .

[@KingJapanPUA]

Straight up that was sick.... I finally got a set to use as an opener trick during the day; I have a long way to go until I get to your level

[@cbvms77]

this has to be the best linking rings routine i've seen yet

[@stjustyle]

Looks good. Nice work, I look forward to seeing more... Thanks!

[@senseistrange]

The image came to me last year when I was walking in the desert. I is my mandala for my Aikido/magic. It represents a wave, hurricane, serenity in storm, etc...

[@llems14]

Wow. What a fine and artistic performance. Great.

[@JasonJacobs]

Awesome performance!

[@rajlg1999]

Beautiful, Best Wishes.

[@PavelDvorak-magic]

the atmo and presentation of the routine... very nice

[@HIKOTonga]

very nice routine Sensei! Love the shapes and way you smoothly transition..and the added martial arts too are nice.

[@senseistrange]

thank you

[@CrazedComet123]

Thoroughly enjoyable. Thank you.

[@animatedconjurordevious9358]

Great to find you here Sensei Strange! I love all the music that you use and I'm sure you turn Jeff McBride on to lots of those tracks. Blessed be, Devious

[@senseistrange]

Actually Jeff bought the album after I showed him this video.

[@Iggygood1]

Beautiful routine! wow Thanks for sharing this routine

[@mattwalkerpianist]

loved the flapping butterfly bit!

[@Demonrose64]

Man I am such a sucker for good magic. Beautiful routine, I always get goosebumps every time I watch this.

[@senseistrange]

+Demonrose64 Thank you. Nice to hear people enjoy this.

[@Neo_The_One_]

That was f'ing ridiculous! Great showmanship and technique!

[@senseistrange]

Magic isn't a trick or puzzle to be figured out It's an experience to be shared When we evoke wonderment astonishment and awe Share laughter, enjoy ourselves and our surroundings Then we have engaged in the finest of arts...

[@Goldy151515]

Awesome, looks so cool.

[@JamenZ]

I really enjoy your level of skill.... it is inspiring!! Also the way you present yourself.. great work.. jz

[@senseistrange]

It is my genuine honor that you took the time to watch my videos. Please rate them and subscribe. Keep in touch my friend!

[@eddiemagic]

THAT WAS AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!

[@MrMagicR]

[@MakesaGoodGumbo]

Sweetly intrigueing, Sensei... S~

[@adamsfunnyfilms]

[@JasonJacobs]

Awesome performance! love the moves at 1:44

[@CALIZONAOUTDOORS]

awesome performance!

[@senseistrange]

+Chris Dominguez Thanks for taking the time to watch!

[@jtmn3231]

Amazing.

[@cgstonewick4927]

Sweet!

[@jflahiff]

@SirMikeMagic Different strokes for different folks. I personally Loved the approach. I think the speed and skill add to the mystery and enhance the wonder

[@Razamabaz]

Awesome.

[@MONOJish]

what a great routine !! good job !

[@senseistrange]

Thank you so much. Keep in touch!

[@senseistrange]

@magicvincent1 - I started with McBride's routine, and over the years (and with his help) it has evolved a lot since this filming.

[@rommelpalacios1670]

Wow amazing

[@kojimapie]

godamn man :| best preformance iv seen !!!!

[@steakbbq]

amazing, such a good routine

[@askagaydad]

Very Cool!

[@senseistrange]

thank you my friend

[@0204maikel]

Nice!!

[@MrBrenius]

Generally speaking I only enjoy ring routines with 3 or 4 rings. Once you start getting past 4 it starts to look cumbersome and confusing. This routine is different. Very well done.

[@senseistrange]

Thank you

[@senseistrange]

thanks, glad you enjoyed it

[@senseistrange]

@tomosmells I did a variation of multiplying balls in my film death magic. Not the classic though.

[@senseistrange]

thank you

[@senseistrange]

Thanks for watching. I enjoyed your videos as well.

[@senseistrange]

@AoiMitsuko Thank you for taking time out of your day to say something positive. I myself vote through positive feedback.

[@senseistrange]

Sorry the wave was on another video (see my art of peace) The symbols you see there are Yukai - spirit world. Mandala is chart or geometric pattern that represents the cosmos metaphysically or symbolically

[@senseistrange]

I do not know if Govinda has made any videos. About a third of my videos uses his music. (with his permission) Google him. I suggest the Worlds Within album. Tis my favorite.

[@dorfischer]

amen. and bravo! :-)

[@kingofkards91]

As cool as that it I was actually talking about the one at 0:28. I love how you seem to have found this peace in the martial arts and magic. And what's a mandala?

[@Xanubi]

You are fun to watch ^_^

[@ButterflyDragon9]

Wow

[@TheRebelina]

perfomer great .. how calls the song?

[@sk8erJG95]

@SenseiStrange Same, I thought it was amazing.

[@senseistrange]

thank you very much! I can't wait to see your rings. I hope you rated the video and subscribe!

[@kingofkards91]

I totally agree, when most magicians do this their movements are choppy and robotic. You flow like a river. What's the meaning of that symbol in the beginning.

[@senseistrange]

@danishmagic97 yes

[@shandar7]

Hey, "Strange".... Ummm...I've seen you do this in person, and I really enjoyed it. Now, though, I have seen it with all the music and awesome background environment, etc, so I will need the whole sh-bang next time you do this in person for us. OI!

[@lukasvieyra]

ok thanks

[@joshw9568]

Wow your routine is close to flawless. How long have you been practicing it?

[@senseistrange]

+Josh W I worked this routine for years. Doing a few magic competitions helps to get high repetitions in. I also did street and fair magic with this routine. I have done it a bajillion times.

[@senseistrange]

I use 12 inch now. In the video I think it was 8 inch.

[@JJaaPPaaSSee]

coool :D

[@senseistrange]

My routine continues to go to new places, but the foundation is McBride's composition.

[@mashkarun]

where can I find more govinda's videos?

[@blyaxamuxin]

Hey wsp, Iv seen yours video before. U was looks little bit different yestarday.

[@senseistrange]

@HamzasSisterSC2 practice hard my friend, the results are worth it

[@tomosmells]

you were awsome do you do multiplying balls

[@askagaydad]

And isn't it amazing that someone so talented can't make a living at his ART. The world is messed up. I know you love your job but you should be on Letteman, or have your own traveling show or something.

[@randomwrath]

this was really good in the most annoying possible way. I'm trying to get a small routine with lining rings and i feel dwarfed after seeing this

[@lukasvieyra]

hi, i got a question, your rings what size are they?? 8'? 6'? 5'?

[@mattbiker419]

hippie!

[@TheJoeyvarner]

would you hate me if I use a few of your moves?

[@senseistrange]

joseph varner I would be honored. If fellow Magicians ask where you got it - just source me please! Oh - and you owe me a beer.

[@senseistrange]

+Misogynist Prime amen

[@senseistrange]

+Misogynist Prime - I now have Owen's rings. These are still a nice, but cheaper set.

[@senseistrange]

+Misogynist Prime the ones in this video are solid 8. I now use hollow 12 inch.

[@milesillsley]

this just maakes me want to buy and audi and go to the olympics

[@senseistrange]

Yes I do. Just click on my name and you will be brought to my channel.

[@senseistrange]

I think I started 4 years ago...I worked at a magic shop then and performed them everyday. Sometime soon I will record my new routine...far better than this one!

[@tenseman08]

haha..if i was a woman i'd be riding you by now

[@ingridgott]

wow just thanks for sharing beautifull art*****
