    Dynamo Card Trick

    You will know your angles better! :-) But, ever checked out performances by Asad at 52kards before he gives the tutorial? Some of them are shot at the perfect angle at front. Don't remember exactly which one, but I guess his vid titled 'Amazing Jumping Card' had a great angle for performance...

    Remembering tricks

    Well...I did get the intended message of the story. It would be difficult not to, because that message was MENTIONED right after the story. And am sorry...the story I got mixed up with was when Al Goshman asked Dai Vernon how many tricks he should know to become a pro magician. Then Vernon...

    Body tricks and the On/Off?

    Is there any way to simulate the effect of the trick in On/Off by Nicholas Lawrence where he pulls off his pinky from his hand very visually...WITHOUT A RING? Would appreciate. And even if that is not possible, I was wondering if you guys knew some cool tricks I won't need a deck or coins to...

    Book on Theory

    theory as in it can reveal methods too or just focussed on the tricks of the trade sort of things? If the former, RRTCM and Modern Coin Magic (both of which you probably have). If the latter, I guess Tricks of the Mind by Derren Brown? Dunno on this field mostly because most magic books start...

    Dynamo Card Trick

    So...I will say a few things... First off, the important stuff YOU WERE GREAT!!! Second, since this is a performance only, I feel the camera is not placed in a very suitable angle. Third, the ONLY slightly-big problem (?) is in the third king's appearance. Maybe you can switch the angle and...

    Pinky break dilemma...I need help :(

    I am assuming you need a break under 2 cards from top.Pls correct if am wrong... Learn the pinky count. It is difficult for a reason, that's because it is gaze-proof. In your words, your audience could grill your hands but will not catch the break. In the beginning I always got a pinky break...

    Remembering tricks

    How do I remember? I don't. I really don't remember a majority of the tricks I learnt as a beginner, probably because they made no sense and were the super-long-phasey-stuff am not a big fan of. I have also forgotten a lot of tricks I used to perform because I did not get good reactions and so...

    Need advice on buying a book

    RRTCM is still the best, tho you may try its 'sequels' for the hardcore stuff. Others will direct better on this front. Second, since you find learning on the Tube clumsy, am assuming you want to get to some more impact-ful stuff than the repeating stuff many channels have (if that made any...

    Easy First Impression Tricks

    first trick? I would go with a simple 4-aces production? There are many ways to do that and it keeps getting better and better, but I like the added flair with Chris Ramsay's version, on his channel so you can check that out...it's fairly easy (a little knacky). There's one where you show the...

    Easy First Impression Tricks

    Cool suggestions, but what is the Biddle trick? Can you link me to a performance? Because I have a feeling that it is one of those amazing quickies with cards you can do without "Pick a card, any card..."

    Marlo Tilt vs. Bluff Pass?

    Here is the background... I don't know (well) EITHER of these moves (mostly because I never needed them?) But if one could perform both decently well, which would be better? Something else that has been bothering me since I wanted to learn the bluff pass, is it really helpful when I want to...

    OK coin production:- looks angly?

    Not a revelation (have got that fine:-) ) However my question is it very angle-sensitive? I mean it looks superbly amazing on camera...but for real people? Also...thanx! Aaand I love Eric Jones' work...just sayin'.

    Beginner Recommendations

    For street magic...most tricks are very simple and basically you can do the same thing over and over and just change the story and style to do something 'new'. Dunno if it has a name but there is an effect where audience member karate chops a SMALL packet of cards held by me and find here chosen...

    OK coin production:- looks angly?

    First I' d like to clear up one point... OK is probably not the real name of the effect and please correct me. So...it looks frankly GREAT on camera. Must be fine with a single audience member too... I was thinking more on the lines of 2-4 spectators. So how do I do it? Provided I can actually...

    Anyone dabbled in Voodoo/Witchcraft.

    Well I have never experienced it...so I would not give my opinions on whether it is real or not However I can't help but feel they are not real and are scams like Maaz said. People who are not happy with just claps and wow's, they also want to make people believe in totally wrong things...
