One thread is better than hundreds the same, seriously. Now before it spirals into arguements and flaming... I'd like to see a few flourishes, not tons though. More cool everyday stuff like redline. Sleights, with suggested applications. I think the key is a balance. One week a sleight...

Seriously always listen to (well read...) what praetoritevong has to say. His advice and ideas are very solid. It's about performance, when I first started, Dr Daley's last trick got reactions like 'wow' and 'cool'. I recently started doing this trick again and it now gets (sorry for...

For magic I have never strayed from bikes, and I'm pretty sure I never will. Bikes :D Flourishing... I practise with bikes mainly because I get bricks of them, but I love Guardians and Wynns, in equal measure right now. Both look Just amazing and handle really well. I've used a friends...

Yeah, Good luck mate :) Have fun and don't be nervous. Looking forward to hearing about how it went and the effects. -S♠

I don't know about anyone else, but I've recently made the decision to stop just doing whatever trick I feel like and work with a routine, normally 2-3 tricks, no more. Same pretty much all the time. I always just say: 'here's something else that's cool..' or start the trick as they finish...

It is natural that over time originality in creativity becomes harder. Things get repeated or are similar to other ideas or whatever. But that's just how it is, and that helps to push the boundries of creativity. But, no, I don't think creativity is dead. Freezer Burn, Cinders PWF are all fresh...

Or buy a cool shirt and wear it to said dinner. :) Then again the cooler the shirt the worse the dinner... Or a great dinner with a wack shirt. Hmm. Cinema maybe and scrap dinner? -S♠

Very good and interesting read, well thought out with some strong and sensible points there. I myself have a Black Belt in Judo and cannot remember my life before Judo, and I like the comparrisons you draw. I'm not going to try and reiterate your points as I don't think I could, but I hope...

Nah... It did :P Just to reiterate a point... Bikes, I live in England and just buy a brick of them. Cheap, look cool but not to 'snazzy' and feel good. -S♠

Foo:l and cringe.... I'm liking those :) -S♠

Nice idea mate. I reckon it could be very cool, and now I think about it, I might try this when I get PWF... If you made the object fall the first time and then got them to say fall second time round... Just an off shoot of your idea... I like the holding the hand and 'believe ideas too...

Ok, youtube isn't even working for me, so I haven't seen the video. But... I have read every post in this thread. Read Blink's post, he makes the point perfectly, try not to be a complete copy but inspiration is fine. And also I'm sorry but the amount of flourishing videos that look exactly...

Happy Birthday Wayne! I heard a rumour that you wanted Witness as a present... I hope someone obligied :) Have a great day :) -S♠

Sounds really cool, I reckon it could really help me get some fresh effects. I'll wait for a review though, before thinking about getting hold of it. I want to know more about the effects. -S♠

I have yet to pick up collateral and I have quite a list of things to buy now - Madness from DM and Power word:fall and technique from paper crane. But I'm pretty sure I'll love collateral, reading through I like the sound of boxer, enemy and half triumph. Also of if overkill and and delusion...

Liking the fav' trick edition Mr Long, and the redline video while we're at it. Anyway... Pete, Hampshire, England. I drink tea. I like cucumber sandwhiches. However I don't personally know the Queen. Sorry. And favourite trick - Lapse >DM Also love Witness and the Burn tricks. -S♠

If I ever even see Derren Brown, I will hold onto his leg and scream untill he teaches me everything. :) Also Daniel Madison, I love his work, yep, definite fanboy. Not so much but, Wayne and well, friends because they just seem so cool and it would be an absolute laugh. And JB for the...

If you want to do some card/coin effects, see if you can get a camera and screen set up. :) -S♠

Praetoritevong, as per usual, great posts. Not evetything will work all the time, as has already been said. Remember to gear your performance towards your audience, as ayli said, different tricks. I have never performed Angle Zero, to anyone. The reason for this is that I think if your...

I'd love to, but no redline =[ -S♠
