Palming DVDs?

RRX · Aug 15, 2008

I have watched a lot of magic dvds, but no one covered the palming technique with a lot of details(angles, skill level, and so on).
Which one can you recommend me?

I believe, don't quote me on it though, there is one DVD which focuses totally on palming I can't for the life of me remember who's it is though - Allan Ackerman comes to mind but I'm not sure.

It's mentioned on these forums somewhere, break out the ol' search feature and see if anything turns up.

I met Bob White earlier this year and he was a fantastic magician to speak with and learn from. He had a great personality and really knew his stuff. Most importantly, he conveys what he knows very well.

You won't need to look further.

I highly reccomend "John Carney on Palming" a amazing dvd with all types of palms. Taught by one of the very best of the scholars out there on magic.

I'm fairly sure Allan Ackerman does have a DVD on palming. It's one in a series of about 8 DVD's containing stuff like False counts, Second and Bottom dealing, Shuffles and cuts etc.

Thanks for the names, guys.
I will buy some of them.

In volume 6 of Daryl's The Encyclopedia of Card Sleights there's a whole section about palming. It contains lot's of stuff, and Daryl's teaching is good. The whole series is recommended.

I havent herd of a DVD that teaches palming in deatail, but I have been working on my own palming technique that makes palming more fooling, for magicians also.

If you really need a DVD then sorry i cant help you. Although there are some great books out there that teaches palming. Expert Card Tecniques and Expert at the Card Table is two of them.

My favourite palming DVDs are Allan Ackerman's "Advanced Card Control Volume 1", Bob White's "Practical Card Palming" and John Carney's "Carney on Palming". If you want to move on from them with some more advanced stuff, then look into Ed Marlo's "Revolutionary Card Technique", specifically the "Action Palms", "The Side Steal" and "The Tabled Palm" chapters.
