    Do the Bucks have good magic?

    People have touched on this here but a lot of the Buck's tricks can be adapted to incorporate a good patter. Such as deja vu, I don't perform magic the way the Bucks do but I've changed the presentation of this trick to suit me, It's become one of my standby card tricks. I think the Bucks magic...

    Loops

    I've bought only one pack of the pre-made loops, I make my own loops with Invisible elastic thread. I love loops as well, I have one on my wrist every day, throughout the day, I use them after a few other effects, usually and I know my audience pretty well. My favorite effect is both the...

    Balloon Swallowing... Best Balloons?

    I've tried playing with this trick and I had the same problem. I figured it's the balloons because the ones I got were quite cheap. I plan on buying higher quality ones, any suggestions? Thanks.

    Best Closer For Shows

    Yep, that's the main idea. I use a smaller drawing pad, a sketchbook only a bit bigger than a normal piece of paper though. If everything is setup up perfectly then cardiographic can look very good from only a few feet away, yes. I've done one time actually for only 5 people. Angles are quite...

    Best Closer For Shows

    I've recently started closing with Cardiographic. It's quite large so I know everyone an see it, and I've found the effect is definitely powerful enough to be a perfectly suitable closer. Also, I love when the spectator gets to keep something from the trick, it's great because they will...

    Good Tricks

    Bodyguards! It's a simple, impromptu card trick by Jay Sankey. One of the first serious tricks I learned, It's become one of standby tricks, one that is always there and always works. Never fails to get reactions for me. Come up with a neat presentation and bodyguards can serve you as a great...

    Newbie Here!

    I need to recommend Born to Perform as well. It'll show you so many good tricks, that become easy to do with just a bit of practice. Honestly, many tricks I still do regularly are on that DVD, IMO it is the place to start.

    Flicker by Michael Paul

    Yes I own it. It's pretty neat but I found that it is not "as good as described". The "Flicker" is very inconsistent I've found, sometimes it will go for a couple seconds and sometimes it will last only a split second. Sometimes it's not too clear either. Also it's not impromptu, you will need...

    Your Strongest Effects

    Ever since I've started one of the first tricks I learned (not including the tricks"I'll lay for rows of cards out and you tell me what row your card is in each time") was Bodyguards by Jay Sankey (It's a card trick). It's amazing, and I've performed it so many times that I've figured out how to...

    Guardians at Wal-Mart!

    Hmm, I thought about whole bunch of people checking out Theory11 too, but I don't think it'll be a problem at all, for reasons already stated. Oh they were cheaper too, 3.93 Canadian dollars.

    Saturday Night Contest - Resolutions for 2009

    Well, 2008 was a huge year for me in magic. The reason being, well, it was the year I started doing magic! There are so many things I could talk about here... It was my little brother who actually got me started, as he was going through that phase every kid does when they get a little magic...

    Guardians at Wal-Mart!

    It's true! I was very surprised! I went to Wal-Mart to get some decks and I find some guardians! There were two deck left. There are the same ones sold here at T11, but the box is different and it has a different advert card, it still came with a double-backer though. I sitting here comparing...

    Misprinted Bike's

    Oh, strange. I have decks with the black and grey backs but with white fronts (black and grey pips). They've got a black and grey (the grey on the box is actually silver like on vipers) box, but the box doesn't show what the front of the cards should look like (I'm in Canada and I've noticed...

    Misprinted Bike's

    Hmm, I have two of the exact same deck, I don't think it's any misprint, sorry.

    GHOST INK by Andrew Mayne

    Personally I like ghost ink better. If you want big images then tattoo joe is the way to go, ghost ink only works for smaller images. I like it better though, because you could put the tattoo anywhere on yourself and there's no specific clothing you must where. Also it's easier to handle, for...
