You asked why he didnt have rings all the time. Because he was inPart 1 and didnt have them Because he didn't use Gold sand on scene? I can't recall when Rasa uses gold but when they go head to head, and in the flashback, whenever he uses gold sand, his dark circles appear. It could be a family-kekkei genkai trait or a shukaku related topic or even both.

According to the databook, Rasa's basic natures are Wind, Earth, and Water

Gaara's basic Natures are Wind, Earth, and Lightning

If they both have the advanced Nature Magnet, the logical inference wkuld be that it is Wind and Earth bceause those are the 2 elements they both have in common I agree Wind + earth is what Gaara and Raasa use. Also, "maybe Rasa has a secret stash of Shukkaku chakra" is some fanfic stuff I agree. But my suggestion was based on what I read on Narutopedia that the hosts for Shukaku were always taken from the Kage's family. This is why I also associated the dark circles with naruto's whiskers.

Rasa tought Shigazane how to use water release for mining purposes I agree now. Thanks.
