Second this. Great series of card work from Ben Earl. For TnR, depends on where you want to perform it. Some suggestions *The ultimate rip off - From AoA volume 2-3 can't remember. Great stuff and requires only 1 card. Great for spur of the moment performances. ReinCARDation is based upon...

I agree with your point, however you have to realize that not all magicians aim to perform. There are some that are move monkeys and aim only to impress other magicians, and see magic as a self contained hobby. To those magician's their love of magic comes from learning difficult moves and...

Might I also add. The Roadrunner cull by Kostya Kimlat. Having a fast and effective way to set up/ stack the deck in front of your spectators without them realizing is a very very strong tool to have. Not to mention some mindblowing effects e.g. Culligula

LOL pwned. Well Practice doesn't make perfect :P Practice makes permanent. So it is about the way you practice and the effort put in that gives you the end result. So I guess it is possible to do something for a long time, and still not improve, however you will still be proficient, if...

Surprised no-one has has given an decent answer yet. The one hand fan can be learnt on Jerry's Encyclopedia of Playing card flourishes and many other beginner DVD's. The on Demand also teaches you how to do it as well. I learn't mine of Cardshark88 on youtube 2 years ago (go ahead and...

ZAP is a hypnotic induction. You don't get knocked out You know everything that is going on and you are perfectly aware of it. Hypnosis works on the principle that you focusing on a certain idea strongly to bypass the critical factor. Apparently it is also synonymous with the placebo...

Agreed with before Manchurian Approach is hands down better than ZAP (I have both). Manchurian approach not only teaches the induction but also how to approach a group, with Anthony getting some tips from PUA's. Manchurian Approach = better price, better value, just better in every way.

Whatever I am using at the time.

I think the best way to identify level is by the experience/ practice a person has had. To me (and only to me) -Beginner: 0-2 years -Intermediate 2-6 years -Advance 6-10 years -Mastery 10 years +

The amount of gaff cards/decks ever sold by the USPCC is the same amount of regular decks used by Las Vegas Casino's in a day. I just made that up, but the point is that USPCC won't care what magician's say because it's a niche market.

Just bikes I think.

Before Osterlind's 13 Steps on DVD, my recommedation would have been Richard Osterlind's Mind Mysteries series. A great set of DVD's with good effects and theory.

Apparently they are going to discontinue cards which modify the following things. -The back of the bicycle playing card -The ace of spades -The jokers as they are a trademark of USPCC Utility cards such as blanks and double backs will still be available. Marked decks, gaff decks will...

Waaaaaah!!!

I was about to say The classic magic of Michael Vincent. However that is more like a volume.

No Sh** Sherlock. Lol sorry I just felt compelled to say that, no offense. Prior to learning mentalism I always though Derren possessed superhuman abilities. This just goes to show that even magicians can buy into the patter that most mentalist use. Derren can possibly remember a 4...

Pretty sure the goldfish production requires a goldfish and a way to store the goldfish :P It outlines it very well in The Real Secrets of Magic.

How long was it until it arrived? Personally I think the website is dead, so I might have to complain to paypal.

FASDIU by Paul W. Cummins

Recently I purchased a brick of bicycle playing cards from 808 cards. This is my first time purchasing from them. I am not flaming anyone, but I have to mention that I am appalled by poor level of customer service at the moment. I purchased a brick of cards from them 1 month ago and it still...
