*rolls eyes to this thread* -Kevin

Hah! true that. I still have slight scars on my hands from experiencing that with a deck of Old Studs. Weird stuff... -Kevin

I think I know what you mean. PM me if you need help with it ;) :p -Kevin

Old Studs are some of the best fanning and spreading cards you will ever come across. -Kevin

Phew, I congratulate you for actually posting a useful "This site is down" thread. -Kevin

No matter how complicated the sleight, it all looks the same to the spectator. -Kevin

Not exactly. The moves he described to not fit Deja Vu or Osh negosh bgosh. It doesn't have to be a Buck effect ;) -Kevin

Exactly! And not to say that their tricks and material cannot be used, I just do not think that their effects should be performed for spectators the way they perform for us. :) I believe you completely missed the point I was trying to make -Kevin

So to all the sleight junkies out there and the magicians frustrated by them ;) So let's be honest. When you first were introduced to the modern forms of visual magic for the first time, such as the Bucks, you were pretty freakin blown away. And it inspired you to learn the material, so...

Book two. Around p. 230 or 240 i can't remember exactly where. It's in an effect where the deck seems to split in two and the top part is hovering and all of a sudden the card shoots out of the pack -Kevin

Sure it's a knacky thing. As you start to get the feel for it, you'll start to get frustrated because the card will keep flying out. Just practice. However, a suggestion, If you have Paul Harris' Art of Astonishment books, take a look at the description of the pop out move there. I...

Alright I'm going to count how many threads we get asking "Andthensome or *Insert magic reference here*" so far: 2 -Kevin

The second method that he teaches is by far the best. As you play with it more, you'll find that you can get the card(s) to shoot a lot farther with the second method. I've found myself having to learn to control how far I shoot it because the cards were flying off the table. Plus as you...

I was thinking the same thing. Not an attack on Cardistry77, but I feel people are going to not learn it properly, then compromise it by trying to over do the double and try to make it look epic. oh well :( -Kevin

Um... so you know that no one has it, yet you ask our opinion on it... :confused: At the risk of sounding like a broken record, find out which one fits your style more. Also, tell us more about what you're skills are and what you like to perform. -Kevin

In Andthensome, they talk about how "Cards Across" was not as good as it could be because of how the card goes in face down and comes out face up. From how you described this, it sounds like that's what you would be doing. It makes more sense for the card to come out the same way it went in...

Patience young padowan. ;) -Kevin

Just a suggestion, I wouldn't base my decision on buying Andthensome solely on how hard the GOAT change is. There is a ton of great sleights and tricks on the DVD. I'd base my decision more on whether or not the material on the DVD fits your style. Because if it does, then it is definitely...

That wasn't an attack pipi94, just a generalization about the whole situation :) -Kevin

Hey guys, here's a thread I posted back in December on Decknique. I was motivated to write this after attempting to respond about someone needing help with Pandora. There are countless threads asking for help with Pandora, kryptonite, pressure fans etc. Don't get me wrong, I am in no way...
