i've been doing the super flip utility for years. it is a knack, and you have to get used to it, let your fingers get used to the feel. my tips would be, don't try to flip the last card. if you do, you will end up with a clumsy, obvious appearance in the flip. instead, just concentrate on the...

no no no. i work part time professionally, and i would never wear this. i mean perhaps, if i were a magician/ninja, i might need one, but as it is, i do not need a big, bulky, and (quite frankly) ugly thing like that strapped to me. no thank you. Chr!s

i absolutely agree that each vanish must be judged on its merits in the context of the effect, but i also believe that one CAN have a favourite vanish. Mine is my handling of the french drop. My handling finesse's have evolved the sleight so that now i can perform this easy vanish in front of a...

a switch without pockets? what are the other criteria? must you be standing, or can you be seated? what do you wear to perform? are you against the use of gimmicks? there are plenty of suitable candidates, but i need to know more about the context of the effect you are using the switch in...

Hmm... some considerations... -Ring thing, Garrett Thomas. -Stigmata, Wayne Houchin. -Torn, Danny Garcia. -Paperclipped, Jay Sankey. How about 'Best single trick releases', not discriminate of whether it comes with a DVD or not? Probably far too much to choose from... Chr!s

\I would be tempted to use joel givens' heckler stopper, from session, but i think i would refrain. i used to use it alot, in the past, but i've matured a little (very little). Ask them what the problem is. nine times out of ten, they'll say they don't like magic, or it's boring, or they know...

Before even considering working on a professional basis, you need a full arsenal of material that you are comfortable with. i worked on my stuff for 6 years before even thinking about paid work. I think the best way to judge yourself, at this point in your studies, would be to film your effects...

It can also be learned from one of the vernon chronicles. It is very nice indeed. Chr!s

Hi! This is my first post, so thought i'd open with a joke... A skeleton walks into a bar and says, "i'll have a beer and a mop". Anyhow, The easiest way to accomplish the 'secure doubling' as it may be described, is to roll it into a ball, yes, with an up and down motion, but then roll it in a...
