FAQ to Axel Hecklau

What ring size do you recommend?
My rings are 10" (25cm) in diameter with a thickness of 7.5mm. I find this size to be very comfortable. They are so well proportioned to my height (1.80m). A chain of 7 I can display comfortably in full length and gives a nice picture.
But my routine can also be performed with 8“ / 20cm or 12“ / 30cm rings. With large diameters, however, the cross-section should also be correspondingly larger.
A 30cm ring with a 4mm cross section just looks cheap.

I perform the linking rings with just 4 rings. Are your moves/ideas etc. also transferable and usable for a set of 4 rings?
Absolutely. My routine uses all the classic rings but a lot of the theoretical considerations apply quite generally and all the moves in the second part use only 2 rings.

Are the spectators involved in your routine or is it a pure stage routine like Richard Ross?
Examining the rings is essential to the effect in my opinion, so I involve the audience to examine the rings.
But I focus on the strength of the effect, not on a spectator being "too stupid" to get the rings apart.
The spectators are there to confirm that the rings are unlinkable.
So it is NOT one of those comedy routines à la Pop Hayden / Pauls Daniels, although it does have its funny moments.

Under what conditions can your routine be performed?
I pretty much perform my routine in any conditions. Outdoors, indoors, on stage in front of 500 people or in a salon in front of 20. You can still see it well at a distance of 30m and you don't need to worry if the spectators are sitting 1m in front of you. Surrounded, by the way, is also no problem.
A trick can hardly be more practical.

Are the rings included?
No this is a digital video download in 2 parts. Total running time app 3,5 hours. But you can use any standard linking ring set from 8“ to 12“.
