    Glide, different opinions?

    I have seen different books have different views on which fingers should ACTUALLY do the glide. All of them have their own advantages and disadvantages. RRTCM says to use only the ring finger, while Nicholas Einhorn says to use all three fingers except the index finger...then I have seen YT...

    So...Illustrated Compendium of Magic Tricks and Tricks of the Mind...

    Well, I got the 2 books mentioned in the title today and I want to know, what do you guys think of them? Like, what are the things I should pay special attention too, what are the things I should treat as the holy grail, and what are some things which I shouldn't actually learn from these...

    Go to Magic Trick

    That's what I thought...but the method is a lot simpler and easier than how the two card monte is often described in books or other learning sources.

    COLD READING

    Barnum statements are the best. And it legit makes me SO mad when I see psychics on TV recite stupid barnum statements and fool people into thinking that they are real psychics. Hmmm... 1) Exactly. 2) Sexist. XD

    How to know when your ready ???

    These last moment doubts trouble everyone. And if they don't trouble you, you are doing something wrong. :-) See, this is a part of the fun! The nervousness. The unpredictability. If you plan everything in advance and try to make everything in life go according to your plans, how will you give...

    Go to Magic Trick

    I think it varies from magician to magician. I have a self-created trick which I love to perform and gets really good reactions too, so... Also, a coin production, really direct, works amazingly. Finally there's a trick, dunno the name (if somebody does, pls tell me abt it, 'cuz I love this...

    Advice on performance

    Have confidence and belief in yourself. If you don't believe in yourself, how will others believe in you? Even more so, others who have never met you before? Stay calm. Too much hyperactiveness is actually not good. Being energetic and being hyper are two different things. Relax, what have...

    Cyclone is injurious to my health!

    I can, like, contact him there for doubts with moves? Or is that page only for inquiries with orders and other merch stuff? Also, How do I check my reply if I ever get one? Finally... THANK YOU so much for taking the trouble!

    Cyclone is injurious to my health!

    I'd love to contact him...but that's kinda difficult, seeing I don't have an insta acc and my comment will prolly drown under thousands of other comments on his channel.

    Cyclone is injurious to my health!

    Well, I have been doing Cyclone by Chris Ramsay for months now. But for some reason I have two problems that just don't seem to leave me:- 1) The card does not move in a neat arc to my right (I do it with my left hand). 2) The card does not move in a horizontal plane. Sometimes, it becomes...

    Practice time::-Sets or no sets?

    I have heard the "Set-theory" of practising a lot (I dunno the exact name for the theory, so if anyone knows the exact name and the person whose theory it is...pls broaden my mental horizons and let me know :-) )...and although it sounds really good, I have never actually gone and done that. The...

    Facial cues in guessing a thought of number

    I guess it CAN be done... But I feel so much more safer forcing stuff. I mean, we magicians are control freaks, right? :-)

    The best reply, that sums up all the thoughts every cardist or cardistry-loving magician has. *applause*

    Pinky count in dealers grip

    The naturalness will come later. First focus on the move itself. After you get the overview of how the move is SUPPOSED to look, it'll be easy to become natural. Also, if you did not already do this, check out 52 Kards video on it on You Tube. That's where I learnt it from. Asad is the BEST...

    Magic Misconceptions you hate hearing

    "There is nothing like magic, absolutely nothing. It's all in the hands." "You saw this on America's Got Talent, right?" Then is something that I don't know is regional or worldwide but... See, I am perfectly fine with people advising me, even criticising me...but the worst time of my life is...

    Difference between Magic and Cardistry?

    Because the title's been given by a layman who doesn't know abt caridstry, and also, the tile is supposed to attract viewers. Like, I could call poetry juggling with words? I guess I can take back those particular words (if am allowed to that is...) :) but yes, I still declare cardistry is...

    Difference between Magic and Cardistry?

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_cardistry Maybe. Fitzkee? Sounds cool, but, nope :-) Not necessarily. Different people different tastes. And abt the time thing, not actually. Jump cuts and edits make a 10 minute video seem quite short, especially if the content is good. Again...
