Don't hate me for this, I just needed to see what all the hype was about. I went out yesterday and picked up a deck of Shadow Masters from my local shop. Backs Well, they look like Bikes. They are Bikes. The only difference is that the backs are black and they fade as the get to the border...

Hey guys, I just got my SS from T11 in the mail today, and I've had the chance to play around with them, so here are my thoughts. Backs They are very... busy. Maybe a bit too busy for my tastes, but I'm not complaining. There are subtle differences between Lions and the original SS, which...

Hey guys, Now don't worry, I know a lot of you saw the title and thought I meant I was taking a break from the magic community altogether. Wrong! I've recently become extremely interested in cardistry/ flourishing/ not xcm, and I want to develop my skills and see what I can do in that...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a place to get a custom gaff card made. The places I've tried so far have not replied back to my inquiries for 2 weeks, so I'm looking elsewhere. Are there any places that you have had good experiences with? The card I'm looking for is a custom flipper/ blink...

Hey guys, I didn't want to start a new thread on this, but I couldn't find any other suitable place to put it. As you can see in my sig, I'm working on a pdf with a few other unnamed artists called the Inversion Theory. More info on that later, but for now, I want to get your opinion on the...

Hey guys, as you can see from my sig, I'm writing a pdf called the Inversion Theory. Everything is going great, except that I can't find a way to properly research my effects, and find credit where it is due. For you guys who have released things, how did you find all the credit? Thanks...

Hey guys, the Reversed Card plot has been one that has intrigued me ever since I received my first Invisible Deck. Over the past few years, I have focused on creating a few of these effects myself. I've developed 3 strong effects, and I'd like to hear what your thoughts and ideas are on this...

Hey guys, so this is something I've been thinking about lately. There are two types of gaff decks: The "Ellusionist" decks, where the cards are actually specially printed cards that have a different graphic than normal cards. There are also gaffed cards where the spectator never knows that...

Hey guys, So I own Totally Out of Control, and I have a question. Is Shifty the same effect as SW Shift from TOOC? The handling looks similar, but I've never actually tried out the SW Shift. Thanks, David

Hey guys, I got my Wynns in the mail the other day, and I've had time to try them out, so here's my thoughts. Backs I don't need to go over this much, so I'll just say that they look even better in red and violet than brown. Faces I really like the faces. The Jokers and Ace of Spades are...

So I walked into my house after school, and there is a package from FedEx sitting on my bed. Guess who it's from. I pop it open, and inside is a black envelope. Handwritten in silver ink is my name, along with the words, "Intelligenti Pauca." My mind exploded. As you can probably guess, I...

Hey guys, So I have some money to spare, and I was wondering if any of you could recommend some good lecture notes/ ebooks that are out that are fairly good. I'm really into classic card magic like the Invisible Palm and In Ten City, and I was wondering if anybody had some notes that you...

Hey guys, here's my review of the (New) Bicycle Vintage Fan Backs that were recently printed. Finish It doesn't say on the box, but I'm pretty sure that they are the normal Bicycle Air Cushion finish. Handling Magic Very nice. If you've ever used a deck of Bikes, you know how they feel...
