    Trying to Decide Between a Few 1-on-1's

    So these are the ones I'm considering getting Death to the Double Undercut Static (I don't do much cardistry at all) ThreeFry (I do a little coin magic, but not too much) Blind (I invented a similar effect, but in mine I have to turn over the card) I know they're all quite different...

    I'm in a Strange Dilemma

    So Thursday night I was watching an episode of, "Magic's Biggest Secrets Finally Revealed." That I recorded. (I hate the show as much as everyone on the forums, but I still watch it.) The idiot in the mask demonstrated an effect with a baloon and some pencils. My mom saw it from where she was...

    Are These Good Ideas for Routines?

    Edit: I want to point out that these routines are for street magic and magic during school lunch and after school. Not for paid gigs or anything like that. I've been doing magic for a while, but a lot of the time I never know what effect to do next. So I finally decided to organize my effects...

    I'm Looking for a multi-trick DVD or Book that...

    ...doesn't have card magic. Don't get me wrong, I love card magic, but I have a lot of it, and I want to expand. I have "Bobo's Guide to Modern Coin Magic" from which I have built two, solid, routines with coins. I have four solid card routines. (each consisting of three or four effects.) I...

    Are Cards Recycleable?

    Hi I'm just wondering if I can throw cards in the recycling or if I have to throw them in the garbage. I know that they're just cardboard, but they have a lot of ink and finish on them. This seems like it would have been asked before, but I searched and there was nothing. Thanks for the...

    Why do They Always Want to See the FIRST Trick Again?

    I posted this on the Ellusionist forums a while ago and got a lot of responses. Members here have been complaining about the lack of good threads, so I'll post the same thing here. This is something about spectators that has been bugging me for a while. I find it true with most spectators...

    Teenage Boys, The Hardest Audience?

    I posted this on the Ellusionist forums a while ago and got a lot of responses. Members here have been complaining about the lack of good threads, so I'll post the same thing here. Well it's been said many times that children are the absolute hardest to impress. Don't get me wrong, children...

    A Little Conversation With a Kid Who Reveals Magic on YouTube

    Yesterday I was on Youtube looking at performances of Search and Destroy by Aaron Fisher. In the related videos section I noticed a reveal video (ugghh.) I thought for a while and got an idea. I looked around for lots of tutorials of Ellusionist, Penguin, and Theory11 effects. I sent a message...

    A Review of Every Deck I've Ever Owned

    For centuries, magicians have been searching for the ultimate deck of cards. Ok, maybe not centuries, but for a while. I decided to make this review of every deck I've owned. First, let me describe what I will be grading: Finish: How smooth the deck is out of ten, ten being the highest Stock...

    The Trilogy part II or CC2

    I haven't bought any multi-sleight/trick DVDs in a while and I want to get one. I'm deciding between "Crash Course 2, the Ambitous Card," and "Dan and Dave's the Trilogy, part II, flourishes." Here's my situation. I've been doing the ACR for a while, but I've never learned it from...

    You Do as I Do...

    ...is a classic self-working trick. It was one of the first tricks I learned out of Mark Wilson's Little Book of Card Tricks when I first started magic a few years ago. Due to the trick's easiness, one can focus on presentation. That is what this battle would be about, presentation. Whoever has...

    Would This be Wrong?

    I finally got a friend into magic, and he's getting really good fast. I've been doing magic for a little less than four years and him less than a year. We both want to do some flourishing, and we were looking at part two of the Trilogy with the Bucks. The moves look like they will take some...

    Does Anyone Know...
