Also look into Bobo's Modern Coin magic or Metal by Eric Jones for coin stuff, most of the advice has been just cards haha. But Mark Wilson and Joshua Jay are great for magic with other items. Good luck!

It says entirely impromptu, as in you borrow a phone or ipod, but do you need to carry a little something on you to perform it with said borrowed item?

I hate when magic is presented as a "magician vs. spectator" approach. I aim to entertain with impossible looking effects. However, it's hard to perform straight up miracles ALL the time, and that's fine. I try to just present my magic in a way for everyone to have fun and witness something...

Reading through this post has inspired me to make a new blog post about patter. I tried to touch on most of the subjects presented here. This is just my opinion on the matter and is no way a concrete thing, and totally open for (civil and constructive) discussion. Enjoy...

Says video is private, I couldn't watch it.

Exactly, I've seen T11 products on many websites, like MagicGeek and other small off brand magic websites.

Ok, understood. Kind of like Centrifuga, where Magik didn't invent the device, just a new way to use it. It looks very nice, I do have one question though, I'll PM you in case it might expose something.

We don't perform to fool magicians(or at least shouldn't), so why does it matter?

Ok gotcha, I just didn't want it to seem all fishy. You could combine this with Stich by David Gabby and perform a double polo miracle haha.

It's an interesting concept, but it looks too fishy with the jerking motion, is that entirely necessary? I do like the polo version though, it looks a little more natural. Also, how clean are you after the change? When I unbutton the shirt to show the changed one is sewn on, can I button it back...

Ditto this. Jeff gives you alternate ways to use it in the members section on the website, and with some imagination you can think of plenty of stuff to do with it. It doesn't even have to be a CTW effect, you can use it for any routine and let them fairly shuffle the cards, and you still have...

Good point! I'll do that right away.

True, you need to find the right person to do it for. Still, the idea of a bug at my table if I'm eating just doesn't seem appetizing, and what are you going to do with the fly once you put it in their drink, fish it out yourself? The obvious answer is no, but I doubt they would want to touch it...

Have card to be forced on top. Spread cards and have them touch any one. Pull it out, put it on top, do a double lift. Boom.

Valid points, thank you! I'm still a little confused on how you know the method of ForFeit if you don't own it, despite owning a similar effect. If ForFeit is so much like Faultless, why is it being released as something new? Is that not just copying someone's work? I am currently working on...

The Rising card looks a little like a two handed version of Raise Rise by Ray Kosby, found in his DVD Impossible Card Magic. As for the color change, I'm not sure.

Now why should I get this over Fourfeit? The both seem to be very similar.

The first video had a few fumbles in it that kind of took away from the effect. The second video was nice, but pretty bland for me.

My one thing of advice is do NOT do the Web. Spiders around one's food? Very unappealing, and I've heard multiple people say that is not something for restaurant work. It's like borrowing their straw to perform a straw through bill effect, then giving it back. Don't do anything that could ruin...

Ok I gotcha. That did happen once when I asked a couple for some magic, and the guy replied with something about balloons. If they say no though, they are the one's missing out. But I do see what you are saying and I agree with you on the uphill battle point. In my experience it does happen...
